Hi charlotte

Was lovely to hear from u again and so happy ur doin well and continue to find that balance , it gives me hope and inspiration to fight my own battles

Jess does watch the voice not as big on it as the x factor or that could me just my line of thinking as it doesn't quite do it for me , as long as she is happy and I'm spendin time with her then I'm happy and I can see that in u with Maddison

Take care

Thanks all xx

10 weeks gamble free yesterday, I am so proud of myself 🙂

I have noticed how much happier I am without the constant stress and worry of gambling. I no longer wake with the gutted feeling and the stress of how I will struggle thru the mth. I no longer think constantly about gambling and when I can next play a machine.

My life has changed so much, I wake up with a smile and appreciate the good things in my life, I enjoy spending time with the ppl I love... It is priceless.

I treat Maddison instead of feeding a machine, but most of all she has her mum back, I can give her all my attention and without gambling I can give her the life she deserves. She's my biggest incentive 2 never give up on this journey. She means the whole world 2 me and this time I am gonna stay strong. My life is so much calmer without gambling in it!

Thanks everyone 4 all ur support, I could not have got this far without u all 🙂

I hope everyone is ok xx
