Yesterday Kathryn and I had a spa day. Not only was it a welcome break for us all but most importantly it was the first time ever that we had done anything together! I still cannot believe it, that Kath has reached the age of 30 before we have had one on one time. It's at times like this that I really realise how much sickness and disability has over shadowed our lives.
Mary-Grace had a fab time with Grandpa, Ben and Pip whilst we enjoyed a jacuzzi, sauna, scrummy lunch and some beauty treatments.
If you are looking for self care suggestions as a way of coping with the holiday season, then my recent blog post over on the mindfulness website, might just help:

Oh how wonderful that you two managed a Day Out together! And yes, you're right: I too find that chronic illness and disability make for a far altered family landscape -- far altered from the societal norm, I mean! This isn't always 'bad', but it is indeed different ...
Blessed First Sunday in Advent to you!! {{hugs}}
Advent Blessings to you dear friend x
I am glad you had this wonderful time with Kathryn!
Yes, it was lovely and much appreciated ;-) xx
I love this photo of the two of you. It's so good that you had this day out together! It sounds so fun, and you both look very happy. I agree that it's difficult juggling the media with good mental health . . it's not easy keeping time on the computer to a minimum. I see Chanda struggling with this on her phone, and I'm happy to see that she's trying to balance it. I look forward to your mindfulness post. I always love them :) xoxo
I'm glad that you and Kathryn were able to have some quality mother-daughter time. Social media is definitely a two-edged sword!
