Best wishes on your big day, could not imagine what you must be feeling. My husband recently found out that his father was married before and he has two half brothers somewhere but now both his parents are gone and I think he would like to know about them but is aprehensive about what to do. His brother does not want to admit this even happened. Both my husband and brother in law never knew until their mother recently passed that their father was ever married before, well kept secret. Their dad has been gone for 26 years. Talk about a surprise |

I am SOOoo mad! The night before the meeting, she asked me to phone her in the morning. I DID....over and over again!!!! No answer. From 10am till 11.20am.She new that we planned on leaving here at 11. I told her that if she was going to change her mind for what ever reason to please let me know before 11am. The previous nights convo was her saying that she was in agony with her hip and maybe she needed a hip replacment.(last week it was a brain tumour.The week before that she was being stalked) My/our elder sister is recovering from cancer treatment and is in a wheelchair and still very ill. This has been like a militery operation getting her from her house(milton Keyens) to my house(stevenage) then to make the journey into London. As she(Carole) diddnt answer her phone by 11.20am I made the decission not to make the journey. Instead I took Paula to visit an old aunty in Linconshire. We got a text at 5.40pm saying she was on the tube when we rang earlier.She had given the 2 bunches of flowers to 2 old ladies in Hyde park and she cried cos we were not there!!!!! and now she was going to leave Hyde park and go home.POPPY COC!!!!!! We were due to meet Carole at 2pm and last night she only had 9p to her name!!!! Paula and I sent one text saying....'We are not going to reply to any of your texts right now because we are too cross!' I hope she had a wonderful birthday........NOT! Gerri x (off to work now) |

Right at this moment in time I feel I never want to hear from her again but Im a softy and know that I will weaken.Given time. Paula ripped up her birthday card but....I cannot bring myself to unwrap her pressie and put it away. It BELONGS to her. What she diddnt know was that I have a photo of her at a couple of weeks old and had planned on giving her this when we met.Also we found out something more about her B.fathers family only the other day. One part of me wants to post the pic on to her....the other part of me wants to keep it ( I almost said...rip it up! I could never do that, dont worry lol)I'm still mad. Carole has seen pics of Paula/me and our Mother. We havent a clue what she looks like. I hurt, WE hurt! so... When Carole decides the time is right....she knows how to contact us. Lets hope she's not too late. She missed meeting her Mother by only a couple of months. Fingers crossed she doesnt miss BOTH her Sisters too.(Paula isnt cured) Gerri x |
