Its been a terrible week. We are reeling from the news that my Auntie Val was killed in a car crash last Tuesday. It is even more unbelievable as her husband died a year ago from injuries he received when he was hit by a car. We will be heading to England soon for the funeral which is involving many complicated plans and a great deal of travelling. I come from a large and close family and we are all keeping in touch and trying to count our blessings.
On Wednesday I bravely (actually not at all bravely) underwent a necessary but traumatic procedure in day surgery which has taken me longer to recover from than I had thought it would.
Harry and I had managed a productive session in the pool on Monday night and I am pleased to report that I was back in the water yesterday for a long gentle swim which felt fantastic.
So friends, onward and upward, and an uncertain couple of weeks lie ahead.
About Me

- Ros Surtees
- I am chasing middle age by setting myself some new challenges. Most people are happy with a cake, a drink and a party when they reach 50, but for my 50th birthday in 2009, I have chosen to swim from Ailsa Craig to Girvan beach instead. I want to raise as much money as possible for Alzheimer's Scotland.
