I am so excited. Tomorrow I go to meet my sister at the airport from Ireland. I have not seen her since January 2007. I get to spend a 3 whole weeks with her which is the most I have done in 25 yrs. My brother, S.I.L, 3 nieces, 1 nephew and 1 Aunt arrive next Wednesday for my daughters wedding on Oct 5th. This is the first time my 3 children have had so many family members in one place since we came to B.C. Canada 25 yrs ago. It will also be a little sad as we lost a brother 1 month ago after battling brain cancer for 9 months. My sister nursed him at home 24/7 for the last 6 months til he went into hospital 2 days before he passed. I am just so looking forward to spoiling her for 3 weeks. She too has battled breast cancer in the last couple of year. LIFE IS GOOD.............

Oh! how wonderful for all the family to be together at such a happy occasion - a wedding is always fun. So sorry about the loss of your brother, but with all the rest of the family there memories of him will be shared. It's always nice to spoil loved ones, have fun with your sister. Love and blessings Chris, Newcastle, Australia.

Have a wonderful time. My sister was only with me for a couple of days, but I do see her quite often. It was a very special time. It was the first opportunity we had as she is a full time carer for her husband. He is in hospital at the moment so she was able to get away.
Make the most of your time together!
