Your story is trully motivational and highlights how rewarding it can be to put others first!

Mother’s have such a strong influence on you that it would have been almost obtuse of you not to get involved in voluntary work but she must be very proud of you all the same.
all the very best with your continuing work and may you continue to be rewarded by your dedication to help and support.
personally I have been involved for almost thirty years with a National organisation called The Miscarriage Association and my work was acknowledged a few years ago with the presentation of a Quaich which is a sliver cup like a little trophy and it is a friendship cup, I hope they people you work with can give you a friendship cup of some sort! you deserve it! all the best from Marilyn Hazlett (known as Mana)from Glasgow in Scotland
