It isn't always easy taking Meg away on holiday as we need accommodation that is wheelchair accessible, has a hoist, a walk in shower and wheeled shower chair. There are lots of places that advertise as disabled friendly, which in most cases means there is level access and downstairs bedrooms, but some disabled people need more than this and for them we have found there is not quite as much choice.
There is a little place in Scotland (near Stranraer) that we go to every other year, it's a little complex of bungalows, with everything catered for as far as disabled equipment goes, but this year is the in-between year, and I have managed to find a log cabin in Shropshire, the owners have a disabled son, so they have adapted the chalet to suit him. It is on a site that is built around a lake, which all the cabins overlook. Amazingly they have kept the price quite reasonable too, as adapted properties, tend to be quite expensive, they also get snapped up quite quickly, so you have to book as soon you find one with a vacancy. Although it won't be a relaxing holiday as such, as we still have Meg's care to see to, which includes getting up a couple of times a night for toileting and turning, it is just nice to be able to take a break as a family.

What a great card Colette - brilliant idea with the balloon message. I'm also having problems with joining in the Polkadoodles blog hop - completed the hop but unable to post a card on my blog due to Mr. Blogger having tantrums again!!!
