Once again I have been overwhelmed by the kindness and support from everyone. This week it is the ‘Blog Hop’ organised by Liska (New Mum Online), thank you so much.
This has been the hardest post for me to do. I have tried to find some photos to put together for Kerry and this has brought back so many memories. It has also done me the power of good, in that a number of much needed tears have been shed. I have deliberated whether this should go ‘live’ as I know for many it will be too much. But as you all know Kerry wears her heart on her sleeve or on her ‘blog’.
The song choice was easy. It was my only chance of ever getting Elvis on her site. It was also the song I sent to her once in a moment of sickening romance. ‘Somethings are meant to be’…… I know we are meant to be; but this tragic situation was certainly, not ‘meant to be’.
Please click on the link and join me in the prayer for Kerry.
The prayer is even more important as she has suffered further setbacks and had to be sent back to Addenbrooke’s on Friday evening. If you are not religious, just eat chocolate; she would relate to that!

Such a beautiful collection of photos. It really sums her up perfectly. Please know that as time passes you guys all continue to be in my thoughts regularly. I just feel so desperately sad that such a lovely family has found themselves in this horriblle situation.

I’m one of the non-religious ones who has been feeling guilty for not getting involved in the prayers so I’m eating a big bar of chocolate instead and adding my positive thoughts !

I shall be thinking and hoping hard. And in a strange moment of ultra weirdness I was also in Addenbrookes from Friday. Nothing too difficult just one of those things. Hoping that the positivity gets through. Somehow. And if not that, at least the chocolate…
Thinking and praying for you all x
My father-in-law suffered a brain aneurysm, so I have some idea of what you guys are going through, but of course these things are all different.
Kerry, and all of you, are never far from my thoughts. *hugs*
A beautiful post – I will be lighting a candle and saying many prayers for Kerry xxx
My thoughts are with Kerry, her adorable children and her wonderful husband Nick this evening. Brain Injuries are as unique as their individuals and my hope is that the addition of my thoughts to this blog will convey to Kerry the enormous support from everyone for her beautiful family. The messages are for you Kerry and it is everyone’s hope and prayers that they will help you to continue your journey. Thinking of you all. Xx
will be saying a very special prayer for Kerry tonight x
Simply beautiful, can’t tell you how much this has touched me. I hope upon hope and wish upon wish that Kerry is back home with you all soon, where she belongs. Sending my thoughts and love as always x
A wonderful & moving prayer put together by my amazing brother for his beautiful wife Kerry. I am currently at my 11yr old neice’s birthday “sleepover” and in true Kerry style we have a chocolate yankee candle burning and Hotel Chocolat chocolates for 10pm. Nick, Kerry and my adorable neice and nephews are constantly in my prayers – keep fighting sweetheart. Nick, your choice of Elvis song inspired me to listen to my Elvis love songs all morning – with you all constantly in my thoughts. xx
Will be sending good vibes. My own mother had the same thing happen to her about 10 years ago. She pulled through. There is hope
Beautiful and so full of love. Thinking of you all X
Made me cry. I wish you all the best and all the health and luck in the world. May all your wishes come true!
I have just stumbled across this page and such sad story from a few bloggers I follow- I sincerely hope Kerry gets better, I can’t imagine the pain you and you family and friends must be in. Thoughts are with you all and I hope she can be home with you all soon x
My love is with you. To my big sister my brother in law and the rest of my family who are suffering with this. I would happily sell my soul to make you better.
What a gorgeous collection of photos! Sending all our love and prayers xxx
I will be eating chocolate and remembering many fun and interesting conversations I had with Kerry when I met her in person earlier this year. Thoughts and positivity and much love being sent to your beautiful family at this time, as ever. x
As hard as it must have been for you to go through these photos, thank you so much for doing so. Kerry is a beautiful woman who’s vibrance and vitality shines through her eyes. There will be many more pictures like these to come in the future, I’m sure of it. Sending strength and wishes xx
Kerry, you taught me for over a year, and we as a group
Became very close, I’ve just watched this video
And cried my eyes out, I hope with all my heat that you pull through, nobody deserves this
Especially someone ask loving and caring as you
Lots of love Kerry
Be strong xx
Sending that Prayer right now. So many love you Kerry, keep
fighting x
We are praying for a miracle for you – We so often think of you – you were one of our first supporters! Praying that each and every week you will get better and better. Love & Hugs, Zoe and Andy xxx
A wonderful and moving tribute by Nick. Continually have Kerry in our prayers and thoughts as well as all her loving family. I firmly believe in the power of prayer and hope that somehow Kerry feels the healing grace of our Lord as she continues to fight her long battle. xx
Love hugs prayers for kerry and all my sympathy.
xx
Overwhelming. God bless you all. Xx
Sending prayers! God bless you!
Sending Kerry the very, very best wishes. x
Where there is life there is hope. Don’t give up, keep praying. May Kerry come back to you and the loving embrace of her family.
What a spirit in this lady/mum. If you are listening Huey, do look after Kerry & her family. xx
Kerry will be in ours prayers tonight!
What an amazing idea. The photo’s are lovely and it makes me so sad that these things happen to the ones you love. Personally, I think brain injuries are the most horrific things to happen to people. They come out of no where and flip your lives upside down. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you and have been from the very beginning. If I could give any advice, it would be to remember the things that make you laugh and smile, they pull you through the tears, but I am sure you are already doing that! It’s a heart wrenching thing to go through, but Kerry will come out fighting. It really is truly amazing how strong the human body is. Lots of love, Abi
My thoughts & prayers are with You, Kerry & your adorable family x
Prayers you way. May God comfort you through this.
I’m so touched by these beautiful images of your smiling and loving Kerry. I’m continuing to think of Kerry and all of you, Nick. Prayers going out to all of you now and always. x
your humor about Elvis and chocolate are wonderful. remember, adversity breeds strength & goodness. I promise.
Beautiful – I joined the blog hop to let you all know I am thinking of you all. I don’t know you and only heard of what you are all going through tonight but I wanted to join Liska in sending you all the very best wishes from Scotland…Get better soon MM xxx
Such a brilliant photo montage of a such a loved woman. I hope the setbacks become very few and far between and she is back at home, where she belongs, very very soon x
Sending prayers for Kerry.
I only know Kerry through her blog and tweets & have not had the pleasure of meeting her (yet). Such a beautiful set of photographs and so many lovely words of support. Read them all to her, let her hear those words of support and prayers & may they boost her inner strength to fight this. I pray that such a lovely, bubbly lady like Kerry is back with her lovely family soon and the chocolates I made for a special occasion seemed fitting to eat tonight along with all the other lovely Mummies in the hope that together we can bring Kerry back home where she belongs. Faith, Hope & Love – the greatest of these is Love (much of it is given tonight & for as long as it is needed) xXx
I don’t know you Kerry but I can see what a lovely lady you are and wish you a speedy recovery after the catastrophic insult your brain has sufferred. You will be in my thoughts and prayers as will your children and your hubby Nick.
That was very emotional.
Get well soon Kerry, love and prayers to you all.
Prayers are with you all and I will do a chocolate version of praying too, because I am very good at eating chocolate. Here’s to the positive news starting to flow on here very soon… x
Sending love and prayers x
That was absolutely beautiful. I watched through tears. I’ve been sending lots of prayers and eating chocolate. Will continue to do so.
I can not even imagine how difficult that must have been for you to put together but it was beautiful. This tragic situation is just that, utterly tragic. I hope and pray for you all that Kerry continues to fight and begins to get past all get set backs. You remain in our thoughts much love from the Le-bons x
Beautiful photos of your lovely Kerry and family, stay strong and know that she is very much loved by a lot of people, who can’t wait to have her back. Thinking of you all as always x
Sat here in tears. I so, so wish that life takes a turn for the better for Kerry. x
Beautiful pictures,sending best wishes to you all.Hoping she will be back with you very soon…
I know hundreds of people have left their prayers and get well wishes, but I really feel the need to add mine again too. Kerry will beat this, I’m so sure of it, deep down. And she’ll sit at her computer watching that video soon & be so thankful she has such an amazing husband and children xxxx
Beautiful photos of you and your family… many more to take:-) thinking and praying for you xxx
A beautiful post – sending prayers and strength for you all @kikicomp
Lord, I only just found out about Kerry. This tribute touched me deeply. Best of everything to you all…
That was an amazing tribute which I could barely see through my tears. Kerry and your family is in our prayers. You are a superman husband and father.
I didn’t know Kerry and she didn’t know me but as a mother of three children (two boys and a girl) I can only imagine what she and her family went through/and are continuing to go through. A tragic loss such a beautiful family! I shall eat chocolate as recommended! Xxxxxxxx
So incredibly beautiful, both Kerry & her love for her family. Thank you for reminding me to appreciate those close to me. Breaking the diet for a worthy cause & off to melt some dipping chocolate. Love to you all x
