Hey Rach I am thinking of you today, it is already 11/11 here in Aussieland and as it is your anniversary of your FIRST surgery would really love to hear how you are doing? I visualise you, Lawson a pet doggie installed in a lovely home. Maybe you are back @ work? An update would be good if you can manage it dear Rachel. Love always from Gabi x

Hi Rachel,
You do not know me but I am a friend of Phil Batten.
I signed up to your journal as I felt passionate about remembering a young lady who deserved to have a full and happy life and wanted to keep you in my prayers.
It is so wonderful to see how things have worked out for you and I thank God that he has brought you and your loving family through such incredibly painful times.
I have no doubt that Lawson is a fine man and his bravery and love for you was so apparent to see. I wish you both all the happiness in the world from here on in and pray your dreams come true.
I think it is time for me to leave this lovely blog place which proves that the heartbeat of love is so very much alive and let you get on with your life, I'm sure Phil will keep us informed of all the great things coming your way.
Much love, stay safe!
Andy.

I have been stalking your journal since my MV repair at the Freeman in Newcastle last November. My operation went without a hitch and my wife and kids are always much more interested in how you are getting on. I thought this might be my chance to take centre stage - but apparently not.....
We are all delighted about your engagement and positive six month update. You have been, and continue to be, a genuine inspiration.
Best wishes to you both.

Hey Rachel and Lawson-this is outstanding news!
Lise and I are so glad to hear that you are moving into the next stage of your lives together. Rachel, I also hope you get good news at the 6 month mark.
I must say I was completely surprised, Rachel, that you also have a U.S. suitor in Ernie! That came out of the blue. Ernie is a great friend of mine but I do think you have made the best choice in Lawson!
Please post pictures when you can of the preparations.
All the best!

Damn you Lawson!! Just when I was going to propose, you sneak in and propose ahead of me!
OK, it's good news all around. I'm so happy to hear how well you are doing Rachel, and I'm very happy for you both.
I hope you continue to get better and better, and remember, if Lawson doesn't work out, keep Ernie in mind for plan B. :)
