Disturbing Dream
I had the most disturbing dream of my life. One of my children was playing and wrapped a drape around his neck and that was the end of him. It was HORRIBLE. I guess it was my subconscious warning me to be extra careful with these kids when we go on our trips.
I’ve organized a dry run road trip for next week. We’ll be gone for 3 days in New Hampshire, stay in 2 hotels and go to Santa’s Village and Storyland.
Now we need to get cracking on our August plans. 
We are going down to Connecticut the last weekend in July and will head towards Missouri from there.
TeamRachel aka mrskatvon is both a website to gain public awareness of Juvenile Batten Disease (which affects my oldest daughter) as well as a journal to remember the events in our lives.
Rachel was diagnosed with Batten Disease in July 2009 and while we knew something was "not right" we had no idea that such a nightmarish disease existed. There are dozens of nasty, orphan disease which affect people both very young and old.
Aside from dealing with the changes of Batten Disease in my daughter, Rachel, I have tasked myself with making life memorable for all of my children to make sure that (at least) 3 of them grow up to be as well adjusted and happy as possible.
Have a fantastic time. Send lots of pictures. Dont forget to make a scrap book of your journey. Mum Xx
