Easter

Our Easter break started off well but then disaster struck.  Shockingly, Mavis had a stroke, requiring a stay in Stoke Mandeville hospital, administration of life saving drugs and a discussion about the possibility of surgery. Thankfully the stroke was mild but it was a serious warning sign to Mavis who has been a smoker since she was 18.  Since the stroke, she hasn’t had a cigarette which is a GOOD THING but she’s finding the cold turkey experience to be extremely challenging.  As the stroke was mild, we are hoping that her recovery will be swift and her symptoms, short-lived
