Thank you all so much for your good wishes. I'd like to think that my girls are all together again in the way they always had been. It was hard for Samantha to be left on her own, that was the reason we got Oscar a few months back, in the hope that it would give Sammy an interest in something new. She did respond to some extent and she was quite interested in what he was up to, but once she started to go downhill, she went very quickly.

It really helps a lot to know that people care.
