This is a link to a site of a friend of mine, whose dad died from Mesothelioma, a lung disease. He has ran several marathons and half marathons to raise money for the British Lung Foundation. Please visit his site and if you feel so inspired to donate to this cause(of course if you dont want to then dont but as someone who lives in a former mine-working and ship-working area this is something that has impacted on a lot of men in my area).
Thanks Diane

I finally gained the courage to speak to my mum regarding my sexuality. I felt sick when I was doing it, but took a deep breath and said "Mum, I am gay!" She looked at me and simply said "I don't believe you!" and walked away. To say that I am gutted is an understatement. My world has been in turmoil over the past few weeks, and when I finally get the courage to come out to my mum she simply doesn't acknowledge how I feel. She wouldn't even discuss it with me, she simply refused to believe what I had said.
I feel like my feelings have been ignored....
I feel like crying.

I used to love fridays, but since being a single parent my weekends now seem to be just the same as a week-day. Mine started hecticly, middle daughter(aged 7) found my perfume, which I thought was stored safely in the bathroom cabinet five foot up. She managed to get it though, and whilst spraying it all over the bathroom got baby daughter(21 months) full in the face which obviously brought blood-curdling screams from the little one
.
At this point I was french-plaiting eldest daughters hair(she is 8). I managed to wash the little one's face, but she refused to open her eyes, and I had to try and get the two eldest to school with baby clinging limpet like to me. I brought her home, and put her to bed for a wee nap, and she was fine once she woke up
.
I came out today to my best friend. I have known her for 9 years now, and she has stuck by me through thick and thin. She wasn't surprised and actually said she had guessed a couple of years ago, and that she was pleased that I had been brave enough to admit to myself what I had always known. I just hope that the majority of reactions are like this. I live in such a small town, with a lot of small-minded people and the thought of everyone knowing I am gay terrifies me. It would be talk of the school playground, with all the "yummy mummies" and I would really hate that!
