Is this the last rose of Summer? I discovered that this rose bush actrually has three new roses which I really did not expect. After my week of problems, this has really improved my mood.

Since I have not been so well, my wonderful neighbour has visited daily to see how I am. I am gradually feeling better now and she has helped me so much. I am now getting to grips with ny new diet and it really helps. Today she asked if I need anything. I told her my son will be bringing a few items, as I must say my food supplies at home are really not those that I now need. We were talking about food and I did mention that beetroot would be a good addition to my diet. She said – no problem, disappeared to her appartment and brought me a packet of beetroot salard. This was perfect, and I enjoyed the addition to my small lunch. She will be bringing me in her car to the doctor and home again afterwards, which is for me a great help.

Such wonderful people are a great help when you feel that everyone has forgotten that you exist.
