Well, you must have wondered where I disappeared to all this time! Nearly a year later I re-read my blog and decided to start posting again. I stopped writing because the anaemia made me feel so tired and ill. Most of my spare time was spent in bed in the afternoons trying to rest and recover, as well as all the iron pills that I was consuming. The business has continued to do well and the family keep me busy too, as any Mum of teenagers and little ones will identify with. My youngest is 5 years old and the eldest is now 19 years living at home again while working in the next town and courting a lovely young man. Sadly I am still battling with the anaemia, it just goes around in a viscious circle. Everytime I get back to full bloodcount I get taken off the iron pills then go downhill again. My Dr is seriously thinking of keeping me on one pill a day this time after I get back to normal levels, I would be very grateful if that happened as all this tiredness is robbing me of quality of life.
