Feel Good Friday

A special Feel Good Friday today as one of our young members, Amy (15, HLHS) has written a brilliant blog post for LHM about what it's like having half a heart. (As part of our Handmade Hearts series, LHM’s young members talk about life with half a heart. To learn more about Handmade Hearts, click here.)

Amy is at secondary school studying for her final year of GCSEs. In the latest Handmade Hearts blog post she talks about early life with half a heart and how she copes at secondary school. Thank you for this lovely contribution Amy!

"I am now studying my GCSE final year and although I do find some subjects, particularly Math’s and Science, hard, it isn’t all bad.  I do have to be careful not to do too much and sleepovers and parties are rare but I have great friends and a loving family around who I know will always support me (whatever happens).  My future is uncertain but I know that the Doctors are amazing. Good advice is to take each day as it comes and live each day to its full!"
