Cabbage White Butterfly

This is one from back in 2013 - I think it is from our last trip to the UK.

 

My poor brother has had another setback with his health. He is still in hospital after breaking his leg twice this year - 15 weeks so far for this break. His leg is not healing as well as they hoped and they will do another x-ray in 4 weeks time to see how it is going. We also received a call last night to say that he has been transferred to a bigger hospital as he has been having seizures and the smaller hospital was not able to handle these. He has been a severe epileptic since an accident when he was 19 and over the years, he has been left physically disabled by the seizures. We live 10 hours drive from him and it is frustrating not being able to see him as often as we like and even more frustrating when the hospital staff won't tell us what has happening. He has been in hospital for 5 months out of the last 7 months. On top of this my other brother has found that he has a brain aneurysm that is to be repaired on Friday as well as some small brain tumours that will have to be assessed next month which is worrying. We are to leave on our trip in just over two weeks so I hope that things have settled down by then.
