People you meet along the way...

I was thinking about a friend of mine and her daughter today and that got me thinking about other people we've met over the years too.



Corinna was the first person I found whose child had the same heart condition as Emily. Tis a very rare defect, around 1 in 300,000 live births, and I've not been able to find a child older than Em although I know there are some out there. It was Corinna who introduced me to a couple of online support groups and the friends I've made through them have been with us through thick and thin. Corinna's daughter Nia has been very unlucky in contracting leukaemia (again a very rare strain). She doesn't do things by halves, Nia. At some point over the next couple of weeks she's due to have a bone marrow transplant and they are on my mind alot.
