Celebration of life

Michael and I have been attending a “Celebration of Life” this evening for one of his parents’ friends. That sounds like we were going to a memorial for someone who has recently died, but it wasn’t – it was a much happier occasion - a party to celebrate the 25th anniversary of this friend being given the all-clear after having leukaemia which is something that was definitely worth celebrating. I got to meet some of Michael’s parents’ friends whom I hadn’t met before – it was a little odd because they all knew who I was, but didn’t always then introduce themselves.
