Happy Birthday to my dear sweet Mam. 85 today!
I didn’t mention this last week but Mam was admitted to hospital – again :-( She was having pains in her stomach last Wednesday so they took her in. They aren’t quite sure what it is but the Dr’s are saying she may have passed a gall stone? They were waiting for her to have an ultrascan to find out. Guess what. . . . 7 days later, she was still waiting for the scan! (don’t you just love socialized medicine – not!).
They let her come home yesterday, I think only because the family had been telling them they hoped she’d be out before her birthday. It’s a good thing they let her come home because she really doesn’t eat that well when she’s in there and as frail as she is, she can not afford to lose any more weight.
But thankfully she’s home, she’s a little more comfortable than she was, doesn’t have the horrible pain in her stomach any more, and gets to eat birthday cake today. How I wish I was there with her.
Here’s one of my favorite pictures – my Mam with her baby girl’s ‘baby girl’!! (yeah, I’m her baby girl) in her pretty little back garden when we went home to visit in 2008.
Happy Birthday Mam
I love you and miss you like crazy.

Happy birthday to your mam, I hope she feels better soon. Glad she's home to celebrate. When do you go back to UK? Take care, hugs
Sooo sweet. Happy Birthday to your mom.
Oh, Denise, I know you've missed your Mam. I'm so glad she was released from hospital for her birthday--hopefully the problem was a gallstone and that now it's gone. I do hope so!
Happy, happy birthday to the wonderful woman who brought up such a great daughter!
Happy Birthday to your Mam, Denise! Happy to hear she's out of the hospital and I hope they can get a scan scheduled for her. My mom used to have diverticulitis- little pockets in your intestine that get inflamed. It's pretty common in the elderly. Hopefully if it was a gallstone, she's done with it. (((Hugz)))
Happy Birthday to your Mom!! I'm glad she's feeling better. I hardly ever leave a comment, but I want you to know I love your blog!
Hugs,

Hi Denise;
A belated happy birthday to your mom. I'm glad she's feeling better and hope she gets well soon. I know how you feel missing your mom. How I wish mine was still with us. Lovely photo of her with your daughter. Photos are great treasures and sweet memories. Have a lovely week ahead. :)
Oh Denise, I didn't know about your mamm's health. Will be lifting her in prayer for healing.
Sorry I missed her birthday yesterday, I sure hope she had a nice one.
I'm feeling a bit better tonight, but still not great. Hoping tomorrow I will feel much better for the weekend.
Hugs sweetie!
Happy Birthday to your darling sweet Mam, and I'm sure just being back home in her own bed will have her feeling a whole lot better. What a beautiful pic of your Mam and Kiki...doesn't blue suit your Mam!
Have a terrific weekend sweetie. xoxox
can't answer your query about Twilight (not seen film/book/whatever it is, so haven't a clue I'm afraid), but I can answer about the perfumes.

Dawn, Endless, and Twilight were brought out together a couple of years ago. All very, very lovely. I managed to get mine for a tenner, which is a corking bargain! I love it.
have a lovely weekend xx
Happy Birthday to your sweet mom! I hope that she had a great day.
