It's great that you have started a new thread for a new chapter of Ash's life Izzy and I hope there is lots of good news on here as we follow Ash's progress.
He has been inspirational to us all as have you and all the family and I talk to lots of people about how well he has done against huge odds, mentally and physically. I know he will go on to do lots more with his life and you will never have a dull moment with all your menfolk I am sure.

How nice to have a new thread about Ashley's progress.

I do follow on FB and think about you all a lot and the wonderful way your family stick together and stay positive.

I'm more like a grannie....or great aunt!!!

Love Brenda x x

Well i've been brave and watched all of the Our War series on bbc3 now, have to say it's been tough, but not nearly as tough as the time the guys have had out in afghanistan. i hope it has made a few people a little more aware of why we have troops out there, Major Sean Bichall has most definatley left a legacy to be proud of in rebuilding the school, just shows how a little thinking out of the box can make a huge difference to the future of so many children, and i pray those children will be taught to strive for a less confrontational future. Blessings to all those who continue to fight for a safer future for us all xx

Right I have got here at long last :-) after quite a long break from GR.

I have followed all the posts on FB, read the links to newspaper clips, cried at some of the photos of Ash (especially in the early days), laughed at ones after his remarkable recovery. More than that felt Cheryl's pride at Ash's achievements.

<3 <3

I look forward to further updates and wish you all everything good for the future.

Sue

Hi Izzi,

I didnt see the BBC3 program,

Will try and catch it on I player.

Thinking of you, Ash and all the Family and as you so rightly mentioned all our service personelle.

Ash is off to Birmingham today, just for check up, fingers x all is well , he's been having a few issues with the silly wound on his left stump. Headley court yesterday to be recast for new rehab stumps, which should be ready for when he goes back in next week. He's not been to keen on this extreme heat we've had recently, apparently it is not like this in Afghan, out there it is dry, whereas here it is muggy, i don't think sitting in motorway traffic does him any favours either!!!
Well Team Invicta are on the final stage of their charity challenge, and are as i type on a ferry from Penzance to St Mary's island in the Scilly's, yeah after 4 weeks on the road they will be home tomorrow. It has been a long journey and i am sure that they have been on a journey of self discovery as well, they have achieved something pretty darn remarkable and i hope they will carry the pride in themselves that they so richly deserve for a very long time. xxx
