Those Amazing Escorters...

I was reading the newspaper today, and there was a section about women of the year.

Jo Frost, of SuperNanny fame, chose Dr Kathy Hull, the founder of the only children's hospice in the U.S. - The George Mark Children's House.

Kathy had the idea from visiting a children's hospice here in the UK.

Good luck to her - this kind of help is desperately needed by thousands of families, that's for sure.

As you know - children's hospices are close to my heart thanks to the amazing help we had from Demelza House.

I read this quote from Kathy out to Lesley - and she said that it was one of the nicest things she had heard...

"There are lots of people to tell you how to bring a child into the world, but very few who can help you escort one out."

I couldn't agree more...and, believe me, without these sorts of places being available to people who truly deserve all the help they can get - then there would be many more broken families with very ill children.
