Firstly, a big thank you to Kiefer Bunday, for coming over, during the last few days. Like your brother, you have been a constant in our life for many years. I will always have fond memories of both you and of course your family. You are a proud Dad and a hard, successful worker. I know you will enjoy success in whatever you do, because you deserve it!
'Going to miss you all. It has been a bumpy ride. Couldn't have done it without you!'
To SJ, you are really the biggest success story I know. I never dreamed we would be so close. When I was in the darkest of places, you were there, happy, recovered and the strength I did not have.
You have proven to me, that there really is another life. We are both so similar, in so many ways, least of all the condition we suffer with.

Jamie
Jamie seemed to be in a bad way, when he came over. He broke down on several occasions and asked for help!
New Start
We are going to try and give Jamie a new start, something he needs, just like us. Moving to Spain was never top of my list of priorities, but it has become something we have to do.
This is going to be a difficult blog for me to write. Usually when I write an entry, the words flow out easy enough. Today is very different, I am really having to think about what and how to write it. As usual, I have a lot to say, but there is also a lot of emotions involved. Those things I usually avoid, so I will give it my best shot!
Both you and your brother, Chris have always offered your support. You are both indeed family, in all but name.
Always remember, we are both there for you, no matter where we. I will even miss you turning up on our doorstep at 3am Kiefer.
Much love and respect to you and all the Bunday's. We will truly miss you!

Natalee. One of the few people, I ever take notice of. I will never forget what you did for me. Not seeing you, is going to be so hard. I am so proud of you. I will certainly shed a few tears on the 31st, for you alone!
Of course, I will never forget that Motherly stare, also. Love you! x

People always use our illness as an excuse to blame us, also. Like you, our experiences have taught us to be guarded, but at least we both managed to lower that barrier, long enough to form one of the most special friendships I have. I have learned more from you than many people I have known for years!
I suppose we all need some help at different points in our life. when things get too much, or when our lives take a downward turn.
Wrong people and wrong choices seem to be the key here. That was proven in full, over the last few days.

Southampton has never been a great place for me to live, it has always been full, of some of the worst people in the world, This will be restart number four or so for us, after still making the same mistakes, time and time again. Thankfully this time, I can start to make my own choices, just like Jamie and tell people where to go. These people mean nothing to me. The only important thing is the new start I crave and the future Jamie deserves also!
Not only was you Mother, my boss, she was also a friend and great motivator. Although my illness stopped us from forming a much closer friendship, both you and your sister and of course Mother, were always there open armed. Even at my lowest, there was no hesitation.
Carly
Thank you so much for popping round last weekend, so we could continue are farewell chat. You are such a wonderful young lady. From that adorable kid we used to babysit, you have become successful, wise and knowledgeable, especially about what happened to us.
The chat I had with you, although difficult, made me realise, just what you and your Mother mean to me!

I have so many cherished memories with you all, that I can only say thank you. Before you left, you called us part of your family. From someone, who lost theirs a while back, those words are the best you could ever offer. An open heart is a good one, that's why I am proud to call you all 'Family!'
Hilary
Hilary is dedicated in all she does. She works hard and it was a pleasure to be a part of hiring you for the job, you truly made your own. I am honoured to have met you and moved at your help and dedication for us, as well as the support and inspiration your gave your team. You are the reason, others aspire to move forward, with vigour!
Like you, we are moving on to a new life. Positivity has to triumph over negativity, you taught me that Hilary. We aim to use you as the example we should live up too and hope to lead the kind of life that made you so happy.
Thanks for being friends, all of you!

We are really pulling out all the stops during our final fortnight, here in The UK, and I wanted to mention a very special friend and ex work colleague. Our friendship was born from the damage that engulfed our lives for so long. This is a friendship that will last a life time, because people like Hilary are difficult to find and her place in my heart will always be there!
We have been through some testing times, you and us, but you know what, we won in the end. We have a friendship, built on solid foundations, that no one can take away from us!
As you welcomed us into your home, so you are always welcome in ours. We always hope to keep in touch, especially to those who were with us, at our darkest hour!
