I have come home to a lot of hospital visits, my baby neice is in hospital after major surgery age 10 months (her mum has pnemonia so my hubby has slept at the hospital to help out, Hoping she will recover really quickly and my other neice age 4 has a hip brace fitted today she has a very rare brain disease, I have attended all hospital visits as we (the family) are trying to find out what the condition is, there are only 3 specialists who deal with the case in this country and my neice has had every single metabolic and genetic/brain test available.I am about to send the brain scan picture to specialists in America as I think there may be a possibility that America has more specialists or advanced technology to deal with this type of situation.Maybe they have already come across the situation before she is a beautiful lovely little girl I love her so much.Also my brothers partner is due to have their baby any day so it's all go down here!Hoping for the best outcome possible for everyone
WHERE DI RUM DEH?????????????????

the kids have almost completed all of their work and my sonhas found it brilliant having kids to play all of his favourite transformergames with him.
Daddy has gone to church and looked very smart all suited upand mummy goes to church tomorrow 2 different churches.
I said to daddy(FATHER IN LAW) makes no sense to shop for food and havesomeone spend 6 hours in the kitchen every day when there are meals to be hadfor 300j around here he agreed but he said mummy likes her own food cooked byherself or family from her own pot.She will not eat from anyone and I find alot of Jamaicans especially elderly Jamaicans or rastas who believe the same.
It is strange-supermarket costs have gone up yet cook shopsare low priced.
A COOK SHOP MI SEH!
I madesure I enjoyed every second of this trip so Ican’t look back at the hefty bills with regret.This was not just about aholiday for us though.Inbetween our fun we have had family things to deal withand also getting our paperwork in order just incase our one day gets here assoon as I would like.It’s all getting sorted much to my delight :) I have made some verygood connections –some old some new some old who I did not even realise whatthey could do.
Some very clever bright creative Jamaicans out here you justhave to look and enquire, one thing I have learned is NEVER JUDGE A BOOK BY ITSCOVER.
The richest , cleverest most successful creativeknowledgable person who can help you the most when you need it the most may bethat person who is walking barefoot with a holey shirt looking a bit rougharound the edges maybe carrying a machete you JUST NEVER KNOW so do not judgejust by what you THINK you see or hear go with what you KNOW is real becauseyou have taken the time out to find out.
In Jamaica you will be amazed how often that can happen ifyou just take time to slow down and really speak with a person instead of beingafraid by what they look like or what you assume them to be.
I told my husband I think if it was me I would now bestaying with my parents.They are aged now and they could do with more peoplearound .They have done absolutely brilliant together all these years alone butI feel now is the time someone should be here.I have offered my husband saidno, I suggested he stay he said no so I don’t know what will happen I just knowif this was MY parents I would not leave and NOBODY could say NO .I would dowhat I felt was right and I believe it is right , right now that somebodyshould come and stay for a while at least.
We are making the very most of our time with them as we arenot sure how soon we can get back as a family but one of us could certainly getback as soon as possible to spend more time with them.
I think my husband should but he does not enjoy time in thecountry as much as I do and I have my children sitting all of their final examsso I will not be STRAIGHT back and he said he would not allow that anywaySO??we shall see what happens all I know is if it is MY family I would STAY.
I will not post a load of real personal things on here butit must be hard for the hundreds or thousands of families who have splitfamilies in different countries.Because at some point some of them will get oldand need each other.
Must be difficult.But right now there are 2 of us and one ofus could take the time to be with them.
Well I am off to comb out my knotty dreads.That is actuallyfor real is is all in dreads knotting up LOL this could get difficult with thewater situation I may end up shaving it all off and just go crazy! Standing inthe shower trying to wash it in the cold is like being horsewhipped with iceLOL.
Yellowman in playing in Negril this evening.Don’t think Ihave forgotten you mr.yellowman you are in my thoughts zunga zungaaa zungaaazayyyy.I will catch up with him in my hometown hopefully as he visits therequite often.I missed the popcaan show THE ONLY MAN SHE WANTS song was a selloff hope you all enjoyed it whoever got to go I know how fantastic that wouldhave been.

It's difficult when our loved ones grow old.
It was the most bitter sweet experience ever when I had to rush to my Dad living in a foreign/different country when he became ill.
Ther was no choice about it . It was something I was happy and destined to do.
So very difficult to see him suffer though.
I was fortunate to be on the position to drop everything and go.
Your elders look so very sweet.
I bet Pop could still bust a skank to some good Ska.
