Packing up Nan’s place . Going through all the things that you may have liked to keep for your own place . Makes me think about what you would of been up to if you were still physically here with us .

You would of finished Cert 3 in childcare . You would of most like updated your car and you would of been booking yours and Isaacks next holiday .

Isaack you would be working and most likely have been competing with your cousin and sister racing to get your licence.

I have come to terms with the fact your not physically here but not that it actually happened .

One way I deal with it is knowing that 3 people are living their best life because of you .

It allows me to keep both of your memories alive through donate life .

One 6 Days until Donate Life Week . It’s not too late to do something at your work place or sporting group .

Have you checked out the site ? Have you read the facts?

If years ago you ticked the box on your license Thankyou but like everything else processes change .

You need to register through the website. It’s linked to your Medicare card .

If you have thought about registering please take 5minutes of your lunch break to review the information and register . Your 5 minutes could literally add years to someone’s life .

Donate Life Week is two weeks away .

I have been blown away in regards to the support that has been offered by Shelbis friends and workplaces .

It isn’t too late to organise something if you want to be in involved .

It’s not about dollars it’s about awareness .

Can you have a morning tea ? Could you wear a gel wrist band or cap ?

If you think you can help either contact Donate Life direct or touch base with me and I will offer assistance where I can.

This DonateLife Week we’re encouraging more Australians to register to be an organ and tissue donor and to have a conversation about it with their family and friends. There are only 4 Weeks until DonateLife Week 2019 so check out the supporter kit for information and resources on how you can get involved to help promote organ and tissue donation! https://donatelife.gov.au/resources/donatelife-week

If you have made arrangements Thankyou . If you want to do something please contact Donate Life or inbox me and I will put you in touch with people who can supply merchandise and posters .

I particularly like the wristbands . Wear a wrist band until you have checked out the registration process . When you make a decision pass the wristband to someone else ask them to do the same thing . Being a donor isn’t for everyone and that’s okay but awareness is important and knowledge is power so please if you can help spread the word xx

Today marks 6mths since you gave your last gift . It is also your sisters birthday . Whilst I have been very quiet in regards to my post lately ,as I focus on my recovery , you and Isaack are always in our thoughts and part of our celebrations x

This Netflix series is delivering. It’s a bit weird but Emma – the 90 yr old landlord- and I have something in common . She lost a daughter years ago .

She said ” some days you can’t move and other days you distract yourself until you can’t and then you cry ”

So bloody true xx

I am lucky to have plenty of distractions to help prevent the eyes from leaking . It still happens and always will but I keep hearing ” live your best life ”

I also think back to how worried Shelb was that I was going to die when I was diagnosed with breast cancer . I would of haunted her arse if things had been different and she was here grieving and not living as I am sure she would me . Because of that each day I get up and plan something positive . Whether it’s related to Donate Life or something with my family or a project at the job I love I do it for Shelb and the rest of my “Village “. Xx

Donate life week is approaching. Have you spoken to your workplace about their plans ?

Can you have an awareness morning tea ? Can a poster go in your window ? Can you wear armband or tattoo ?

If you play a team sport will they allow you to hand out information at the gate or wear a pink armband for the game ?

It’s not about donations it’s about registrations .

As one young red head used to say “be someone who makes everyone feel like somebody”

I will be out of action next week but if you need details contact donate life direct .

Do it for Shelb and Isaack xx

Watching ” A Tale of Two City’s” A father wants to walk his 25 old daughter home . She objects reminding him of her age . He asks if there is a age restriction on rapists , robbers etc to which the daughter states “you can’t plan for that can you ?”

Well no you can’t . You have to live in the moment and live you best life until memories or moments me are all we have .

It’s true what they say . When photos are all you have left you cling to them . My phone chucked it in and thankfully it was backed up to my iPad and iCloud .

The new/old one I haves camera is only working on selfie at the moment so get ready for a lot of selfies
