Other news: thank you for all your kind comments regarding Elliott's medication.
The injections have now started and I'm afraid to say he finds them very painful.
I feel terrible as I am the one that administers them so lots of hugs and kisses afterwards!
Now, about time I announced the winner of last Friday's giveaway -
this week is flying by!
I asked Elliott to pick out a winner and he used his whizzy phone to generate
a number. The prize of Gold Elements goes to....

Such a shame that Elliott now has to go through this aswell, poor wee soul has had alot to cope with, HUGS. some great Prizes up for grabs, hope you raise loads.
It must be horrible, I hope it becomes more bearable for you both.
Great raffle prizes and well done to the winner of last week's fdd, I really enjoy using those dies. JuliaTx
So sorry for Elliott, hopefully it will get better with time. I have to administer insulin injections to my dog twice a day and mostly it's fine but sometimes it just catches her wrong and I feel awful, but I know it keeps her well. Fab prizes given by Spellbinders, how generous, would love to win something from them. Lastly, well done to SuzyD.

Good Morning Christine. How very generous of Spellbinders,a fabulous addition to your prizes. Sorry to hear that Elliots injections are so painful. It must be so hard for you as a mother. Sending pot loads of Hugs to both of you. Rita xxxxx
Good Morning Christine, so sorry to hear that Elliott is finding the injections difficult, I hope it eases up with time. Spellies have been really generous, haven't they? How kind of them (and all the other contributors).
What an exciting post albeit tinged with a bit of sadness. My heart goes out to Elliott, I have heard these injections can be bad news, but just think of all the good they're doing. Definitely going to buy some more raffle tickets to win such a tremendous prize. A huge thank you to both you and Spellbinders for thinking of other people. xxMargaretxx
Good morning Christine, poor Elliott and poor you but you are both so brave. I take my hat off to you. Hope all this will soon be over for you all and that you can all be well and living a normal life once again. Thinking of you all as always.
Morning Christine, poor Elliott I don't think any of us enjoy injections, you are both very brave. A big hug to you both. Emma
Hi Christine, sorry Elliott has to have injections, I have four a day in time he will get use to them if they help that what counts. Great goods from spellbinders got my tickets love Jean Z xxx
Oh my heart goes out to Elliott - and you Christine (no mother likes to inflict pain on their offspring) I hope you both manage to cope. Be brave.
Spellbinders have done you proud I must say... your raffle is gathering momentum now. The best of luck to you all.

Oh dear. Hope the injections get easier for you both. Keep well. Great news on the raffle prizes. Have a wonderful day on the 20th.
Bless you both Christine, no injections are pleasant but these sound awful. I sympathise as I have a 9 year old granddaughter who is on insulin twice a day since she was 6 when she started with diabetes, although they are not always painful, just ocassionally, a necessary evil for Elliot!! He's a brave and lovely lad.
Oh wow that's great more raffle prizes. Glad Elliott has finally got his medication even though it does hurt at present it is all for the greater good. xx hazel
hi Christine Wow Wow great prize ,I hope it will raise a lot of money.Poor Elliott have they given you any surface Anaesthetic to numb the area????? It does help.
congrats to the winner of the Die.
Big hugs Ita
Hello Christine, so sorry to hear that the injections are not pleasant for Elliott. It can't be much fun for you either, having to administer them. Fingers crossed, things will get a bit easier for you both.
WOW, haven't Spellbinders done you proud with raffle prizes. A big thank you to them. Hopefully these donations should boost your raffle ticket sales.
Have a good weekend, all three of you.
