Hey Everyone
As you all know I lost my Uncle who was like a dad to me last year. Its been an emotional journey ever since and now everything is finally coming to an end I have become emotionally and mentally stressed and drained. I have struggled these past 2 weeks and the clients I have had in that time frame have been so supportive and amazing even though they could see I was struggling. After speaking to a friend I have sought medical advice. I have been advised to listen to my body and take a break from work and anything in life that is putting a strain on me while we tackle this final hurdle. Anyone who knows me will know how hard this is for me to write let alone put into action. I hate letting people down but I am no good to my family or clients when I am struggling myself. Its incredibly hard running your own business and having no one to step in for me. So the plan is to take a month's break to finalise everything to do with my Uncle and take some breathing space for myself so I can come back stronger and with a clearer ready to work head.

I am so sorry it has got to this point but I promise you I will be be back to my normal fighting self as soon as I possibly can.

Any appointments I have between now and the end of May I will be in touch to rearrange. If anyone needs me I am always at the end of my messages for advise. Half term is 25th May so I will be back in the office 2nd June all being well. I will keep you all posted. Thank you for understanding โ™ฅ๏ธ

Day 8, Final day! Always world Autism acceptance day!
Today we walked around the holiday park dressed in our costumes. We handed out 30 easter eggs to children we came across on the park! So many parents came for a chat explaining about their awesome children who are autistic and how hard the journey was.

We did it! Wait no.. we smashed it! We completed the steps and spread awareness all while having fun!

Shirts hung up, feet up... until next year โค๏ธ

Massive thank you to everyone who donated, shared and supported us. Megan has hit her donation target! She is so happy ๐Ÿฅฐ

Day two
We have spent most of the day getting ready and then traveling so although I hit my target I would have liked more. No photos today but tomorrow will be a much nicer day of walking. Megan played footie etc so she has absolutely smashed her steps and shes been awake since 3am with only 3 hours sleep bless her!
