There is little to be gained by shouting at a year except, perhaps, the benefits of shouting at something. The thing is that whilst the situation in Haiti is truely catastrophic, and I am genuinely dismayed to read LJs of friends going through hard times, I always knew that 2010 was going to be a painful year.
sheyna received a text from her father this afternoon. In his typically direct fashion it indicated that Carla's cancer had reached the stage where her life expectancy could be measured in days. The starkest evidence of the prognosis is that the ward Carla is on was barred to visitors because of a bug they want to get under control. The only exception was for families of critically ill individuals - which, as of today, includes us.
So we are in Norwich. Kaz and her father have gone to the ward (even at 10.30pm), whilst I stay to look after Ellie who is understandably a little unsettled by the sudden upheaval.
