In the photo you can see a floral arrangement that one of Vince’s brothers and wife sent to us. Vince is one of seven. He has four brothers and two sisters. One sister died quite some years ago.
They are a close family and we’ve had a number of good times together. He didn’t really know his eldest brother very well as there is 10 years difference. The elder brother left home for work reasons while Vince was still quite young. However, they have got to know each other better in recent years and they are close now.
I’ve been staying with his sister and her husband and they’ve been very good to me. The other brothers ring Vince regularly. We are lucky to have so much support.

That is a pretty flower arrangement.

That’s such a touching and supportive gesture from Vince’s family. It’s wonderful to hear how close they are, especially despite the years and distance. It’s great that you’ve been well taken care of by his sister and her husband, and it sounds like you’ve got a strong support network. Family can be such a source of strength and comfort during times like these.

Happy for you my friend. Such close ties are rare in modern societies where everyone seems too busy for anyone and family members seem to compete rather than cooperate.
