Sandshoe's bio
I am 67 years old and I have been married to my lovely hubby Jim for forty eight years in
October and we have two fabulous Sons, married to two wonderful ladies who have given us four beautiful grandchildren.
I love going on holiday, preferably to somewhere sunny. We love cruising and have sailed across the Atlantic four times. Twice Southampton to Caribbean, once Dover to Tampa, Florida and once from Valencia down to Cape Town in South Africa. They were all amazing trips, having fun and meeting lovely people from all walks of life. I also enjoy Reading, Walking, Knitting and Baking -

I'm Still MeCan hardly read this for my tears. My wonderful Father passed away 8 years ago, he had Altzheimers and did not know anyone except my Mum, and you know we were so happy about this as they had been married 65 years when he passed. He got bowel cancer which probably took him from us quicker than Altzheimers would have done. It is such a cruel illness and please God that someone can find some kind of cure for it soon. My Fathet was a Gentleman and stayed one till the end. Thank you for these beautiful true words xxViewDate:

For Mum on Mother's DayThe Poem about Mum is too precious. This is my 2nd year with no Mum to buy a lovely card for. To phone 2 or 3 times a day and just being there to hug. I thought I was getting a little better with grieving but these last few days are very hard.. miss her every day and she must be the lady in the Poem coz she was My Mum.. thank you so much Sue xxViewDate:

Old Age PensionHi Maxine your poem on Altzheimer has made me cry. My lovely Dad had it and ended up in a nursing home. It broke our hearts as a family but you know what, we did everything in your lovely words. We held him and loved him even more.. he never got to any aggresive stages thank goodness as he had bowel cancer and only lived 8 months in the nicest nursing home ever. He was treated like a King and quite rightly so as he was our King.. thank you so much for your lovely wordsViewDate:
