London

Så er jeg tilbage fra min tur til England med en hel masse ny energi. Skønt at se alle igen. Min engelske familie er bare fantastisk og bekymrer sig om en. Jeg kom jo specielt for at se Mandy og Len igen og se hvordan, at de klarer hverdagen nu hvor de er hhv. 80 og 86 år gamle. Len er en fighter, der ikke beklager sig trods et skrantende helbred og Mandy er hans sygeplejerske med et helbred, som også skal repareres af og til. Tak til jer begge for at vise mig, at jeg ikke skal have selvmedlidenhed samt for alt hvad I gjorde for mig mens jeg var ung i England.
Kim kørte en omvej og hentede mig i lufthavnen (kære Kim). Vi boede begge hos Michéle og Rodney, som altid åbner deres hjem for alle os, der har brug for et sted at være. Kims søn Sam boede også hos Michéle midlertidigt indtil han flytter for sig selv i maj.
Michèle, Kim, Mandy og jeg var på nogle hyggelige indkøbsture i Londons forstæder og  jeg havde en dejlig afskedsmiddag sammen med hele familien hos Michéle før jeg tog hjem. Jeg vil savne jer alle som jeg plejer.

Just returned back from a trip to England with a lot more energy. So lovely to see everyone again. My English family is just amazing and always cares about me. I went especially to see Mandy and Len again and how they were getting along at the age of 80 and 86. Len being a brave fighter with no complaints in spite of his poor health and Mandy being his nurse with a health also needing repairs now and then. Thank you both for showing me that I should not feel sorry for myself and for all you did for me when I was young in England.
I was picked up by Kim, who made a detour to get me in the airport (bless you). We both stayed with Michéle and Rodney, who always open their home for all of us, who need a place to stay. Kim's son Sam was also staying temporarily before moving to his own place in May.
Michèle, Kim, Mandy and I had some nice shoppings around the suburbs of London and I had a nice goodbye dinner at Michéle's with the whole family before I left. I will miss all of them as I always do.
