Graze choc flapjack

Today’s Small Memories

I happened to bump into a very dear friend who I have not seen for many years while at the self checkout in Sainsbury (buying the delicious food shown in the photo). The last time I saw her, I was shocked that she appeared to pale and tired and sad – she had been diagnosed with leukaemia and the treatment was not successful.

Today’s chance meeting could not have been more different – she was smiling and back to her cheerful lovely self and I was thrilled to hear that her next round of treatment had been a success. She works at the nursery that my daughter went to so many years ago (my daughter now about to start writing her final A-level exams tomorrow) and I am so pleased for her that she back caring for the little ones again and that she is well – how wonderful research and medical development is!
