It’s official, I have a blog and I know how to use it.

I have finally decided to take the plunge and add a blog to my site. I have always wanted an easy way to share information with visitors and I’m super excited to start this journey. Keep coming back to my site and check for updates right here on the blog.

Not many people know the real me and my life so far and how it has made me the person I am today......so let me take you back to 1979 the year I came in to this world........ and 18months later my mother through depression and alcohol and probably not in a mental state of mind decide to put my hand in to boiling water to which left me with a server burn and disabled right hand,I was then taken in to care till I was 16 and moved around the uk I spent most of my childhood and t eens in and out of hospital having over 17 operations which where for skin grafts and bone straightening and ligament tightening,Years later I first met my mother not long after my 17th birthday and released then that her condition had worsened but I forgave her for her mistakes as we all make them and what was in the past stays in the past after she was my mother then a few years later she sadly died.... I also then met my father as they where not together,I met him and his wife most weeks for a couple of years and again he sadly died and me and his wife had become very close and she was the closest thing I knew as a mother as she looked out for me as one of her own and we still see each other every weekend and her children have become my extended family,over the years I also started to meet own family I had 3 half sisters and 4 half brothers of which one brother sadly committed suicide at age 20 and I also learned about the tragic death of one of my sisters 4 children in house fire and I also got to meet many nephews and nieces and cousins,so as you can see it's been a tough road I have been down but that's not the end of it...... after I was born my mother had 3 more children after I was born a boy 6yrs later who was taken straight in to care when born and adopted by a loving family and a girl 4 yrs later also adopted by the same family sadly my mothers other child died a few hrs old, I was lucky enough to meet them when I was 10 and again at the age of 12 and then I did not see them again but as far as I was concerned they where happy and loved,then out of the blue a few weeks ago I had a message off my niece saying that someone was trying to find me and had been for a few yrs and low and behold it was my younger sister and brother 25yrs later, I was shocked and so happy to find them again.
So all I can say if life for me had been a traumatic start and a rocky road to travel down but I wouldn't change it as it made me the person I am today and I couldn't be happier
