<-- Introduce Yourself -->
ChrisC:
Can't believe that it's been nearly 4 years since I last posted here, so I thought A re-introduction was in order.
I watched BBM last week with a friend, who had never seen it, and I hadn't seen it for at least 2 years, and my .......all those raw emotions of Joy and sadness came flooding back. My friend who had never seen the movie was clearly moved by the experienced, and stated that she didn't realise it was such a powerful movie.
So here I am catching up on, seeing what I've missed.
I first found BM when my life was turned up side down when a long term partner decided to leave, this coincidently happened on 22nd Jan 2008. Well later that year I found the love of my life and 18 months later we had a Civil Partnership. 2 years ago our relationship was really put to the test, he suffered a major stroke (at 47), which nearly cost him his life, but he pulled through. I gave up work to become his full time Carer, and he is doing really well. He is mobile, and speech is improving all the time.
He is still very much the love of my life, we work very hard and have a lot of fun.
So watching BBM again has bought me back to here. It's like coming home.
Thank you for reading.

Thanks Guys. Wish I could say that I've been to lots of different places, but the past couple of years has been caring for my partner, so I had to give up my job to be able to do that. We have had a few days away together and family breaks which have been great, but they have been fairly local to where we live. I suppose we are lucky that we live in one of the most beautiful places in England, with around 300 beaches not too far away.
Take a look at Cornwall on Google Maps, you'll get the idea. We live in Truro.
