Highs and Lows

We had the great pleasure of witnessing the marriage of our son H to his fiance M in a simple but beautiful and meaningful ceremony on Monday the 25th, and later celebrated with a steak dinner in one of the restaurants.  The following day I received the news that my mother had fallen at home, and had been admitted to hospital.  Fortunately it looks as though the injuries aren't too severe, but I can't help being worried.  My cousin M has been so good, helping out at home.  Life is strange.  It gives with one hand, and takes away with the other.
