Sunday 2nd October

Just a brief long distance update. I am still away from Darwin and Louis is Helen's main person. I will return briefly this week but then go away again and be away until ~19th Nov. Louis also has to come and go a bit throughout that time. Although we have good friends in Darwin who are visiting Helen we would love it if she had a daily person who was really there for her. Any family or old friends interested in an" all expenses paid" trip to the NT plus a stipend for some part of the next 6 weeks or so would be very welcome....please think about it... Louis is the best to talk to in a way as he has the most current connection with what it's like being with Mum but also he mostly manages her finances. It still remains very unclear to us both how long we need to be planning for and sometimes I think she will die quite soon...but as we and her medical carers have been wrong lots up until now we just have to go ahead as we are.
