Well guys

It has been a very hard 12 months - 6 of them as a separated family but from 12.35 tomorrow lunchtime Calgary time the Burton Bunch will finally be a whole bunch again !

I would like to take this opportunity to say a huge thank you to BE members past and present who have helped me through this horrendous period - those of you who have given me the most support know who you are as I still speak regularly to most of you.

How do I feel ? You know I really dont feel very much really - very tired and drained and just want to get home for good.

How did the goodbyes go - great until friday night when I had to say bye to my bessie mate and then tonight when I had t say goodnight to my mom and dad - that has to be the worst thing I have ever done in my whole life and I hurt like hell.

Most of you know that my mom has been a nightmare through this whole experience but in the last few weeks I just dont know what I would have done without her.

Thanks once again - our journey is nearly over

Thank God !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

All the best Gaynor, hope the journey over goes smoothly

This time tomorrow you'll all be together as a family again to start your new life together in 'The Bridge'

Hopefully we'll meet up with you when we're over later in the month

Take care,

Arris X

Huge best wishes to you and all the family Gaynor. I feel like we've all lived and breathed the hassle with you.

Give it a couple more days, and your body will just sag as the stresses fall away and you re-gather your strengths for a 'normal' life again. I hope you will all be very happy in Lethbridge. Very good luck

Good luck! Those goodbyes are really hard to do but once you are on the plane they are forgotten.

It's been amazing watching your story unfold, Gaynor. I'm sure it's been amazing LIVING it as it has unfolded.

All the best with everything from here on in.
