Our 2025 highlights! 💜

The high light of 2025 is seeing my son again (in the flesh) . Let me explain. After he finished his degree in university, he was offered a job in China; and this was in 2013. We missed each other so much. He worked in Logistics but also opened his gym and because he’s half Asian he also started modelling and was very much in demand. We talked through We Chat which is like FaceTime but for people in Asia. He was so busy and wanted to come back to the UK to see us; but something always got in the way way of our plans ; for example Covid 19. So we carried on as we were talking over video thanks to WeChat. Then my dad died in June and he came over to see the family and be a pall barer along with his older brother. And even though it was a sad time, it was also an amazing time as he took 2 months off work to reconnect with the family. He stayed at my apartment and it was like a dream come true. We had brilliant times together although it was also sad because of my dad’s death. I have heart failure and he came to every hospital appt I had. It was so nice, instead of going on my own. He redecorated my apartment and treated me to new furniture and whilst he was here he treated me to so many things – I have never been treated like that before. So that is the highlight of my 2025. It was both a sad time and a wonderful time because my son was here and I could hug him any time I wanted. He has missed us a lot too, so he’s making plans to come back to visit us every year. That has really made my year.
