Been a tough evening.
At 5.30 the fire siren went off didn't take much notice of it really, until hubby came home. It was our van that was on fire...apparently electrical. He was driving home and next thng smoke was going out everywhere...no apart from anything else he always carries lawnmower petrol in the back so it was get out of there quick. fire brigade were called and sprayed under it with foam..that is not gonna be good for it. To get to the motor ya have to lift the seat etc and it was dark so haven't looked yet at the damage.

Then about 20 mins ago I got a MSN message from my girlfriends husband. Chris has been ill for about 10 yrs. she has respitory problems, which lead to heart problems-on one of her MANY hospital visits she got a bug in her blood and it is eating into her flesh of her legs..several times over last 4 yrs they have wanted to take her leg she wouldn't have it. She hasn;t been eating or drinking since Feb and has lost half her body weight. Frail and weak sleeping all the time. He has been told it is only a matter of time. She has signed a non resusitate order. Poor old Jim doesn't know what to do he is estranged from there daughter and there son is disabled, Jim will be lost. I really didn't know what to say other than Shit.

Trying real hard to kep away from the kitchen, can't comfort myself with food.

I txt my son about the van he jsut rung to see if everything was ok. So that was nice.
