There’s a small community of musicians and open mic attendees who only know me as “Bigus Chrisus” thanks to my first-ever Facebook account. I don’ t think I’m minded to correct them. Plus, two birthdays a week apart? Sounds like fun.
On with the question. Jeez, it’s a big one.
Just a few days days ago, I would have said that yeah, I was ok.
I think I still am. But just this evening, I got news that mum had taken a turn for the worse and had been committed to hospital. Things have moved quickly since she got diagnosed, and it’s all been a bit of a blur but I’ve been ok. I just think it’s all catching up with me a little bit.
So thanks for asking. Despite all that, I still think I’m ok. More that, I’ve got three sisters to look out for. My closest sister and I seem to be ok. The eldest and youngest aren’t handling it well. Still, one way or another, it looks like we’re all going to get together over Xmas this year, for the first time in about 30 years. Either with my mum, or without her.
Sorry to bring the tone down a bit.
But you did ask 😉
