About this book
Our children excelled at school. All passed the 11 plus. All won places in grammar school. The Belfast Telegraph ran a front-page story to highlight their achievement. They've gone to the best universities - Oxford, Cambridge, LSE London, Liverpool, Aberdeen, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Dundee, Trinity, Queens and University of Ulster. But I was feeling neglected. I was maintaining our home and praying for our family but it felt like an endless and thankless task. It seemed my family were all doing their own thing and I was left. My bleeding started around this time.
By now our family all knew I'd cancer. They were anxious to know whether it's spread or not. Everyone wondered what the future held. Would I live to celebrate my 60th birthday and my 40th wedding anniversary? Live to see my children graduate from University? Live to see my children's children? See all my beautiful girls married? Hold their lovely babies in my arms?
