re.autism
I'm in the middle of a very interesting novel written from the point of view of an autistic boy. 'The curious incident of the dog in the night-time' by Mark Haddon. It got no end of good reviews and won the Whitbread book of the year prize.

Glad to see you back. Kidney stones are so painful. Never had one but everyone I know that has had one echoes those sentiments.

Yup – sounds like you’ve had your hands full but the trip to Singapore should do you some good.  What an ambitious daughter you have!   Sorry to hear about Ed.

 Aah I know from my late mother that colitis and other illnesses can cause the symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease. And was it kidney stones? Apparently they can cause comatose symptoms in younger people. However your kids and the bungalows will make everything daisies! My best to Ed and your family. BCA, Bill*s Roost

Cheers on Ed's recovery!
When you get to Singapore, I particularly recommend--Jurong Bird Park, Singapore Zoo, and the Night Safari, Sungei Buloh Wetlands Preserve, and the Botanical Gardens.

Janice, It is good to have you back!!!
Sorry that Ed was ill, but thank God he is up and moving even if it is at a slower pace.  Yes, refurbishing is taxing on the body, mind, and can filter to the soul if we are not careful. When it is complete, it will be a joy and as you settle in there will be peace and serenity. Blessings!

Dear RockingRector I've missed your blog. Very sorry to hear that your absence was due to your husband's illness, I hope he'll be in top form again in time for your holiday. Thank you for your sympathetic comment in my blog.
