Well the last week has been as tough as awe expected it to be. Following an exploratory surgery, Bruce has two lymph nodes removed his neck, which have now been sent for biopsies to see what we're dealing with. Emotional. Stressful. Horrible to be apart.

ON the other side of things we are changing medical facilities to get the best care for Joseph, which means moving to a new area. Whilst we've been very lucky in finding a new place and getting organised, a current landlady with zero compassion means we are losing around $500, just over 400 GBP (can't remember where the pounds symbol is) and that's a kick we didn't need.

We are still waiting for feedback on our citizenship applications, which our lawyer is dutifully chasing up. Please keep us in your thoughts friends.
