Christmas Is Near  6 December 2023

Josie is back home now , in time for Christmas . Now we will be able to have a great Christmas , things are looking up for her for now , with less pain relief since she's been home. Familiar surroundings and faces is what she has been missing not staff that fill her up with heavy pain relief so she doesn't recognise her own family , since being home that is not an issue now , truely blessed to have Josie out of hospital and at home ,
