It's been restored as a castle.
So they realised then that they had found their place to have the wish, to create the wish.
Bonnie.
It was amazing because we knew, had an idea of some of what was going to happen, but we never realised that
they would go to the extent that they did, and it was set up, the law was set up, medieval times, he had to fight, prove himself in battle first, and then he was knighted on the steps at the king, and the whole weekend, it wasn't just a day, it was a weekend, we were actually there from the Friday until the Monday morning, and there was the five of us, myself, Michael, and the three boys, but my mother and Michael's mother and father were also invited, and they were there as well, and they spent the weekend with us, which was very special.
We went then to... He went to have a scan, another scan done, and we were told that the tumour was growing back and basically there was nothing more could be done for Erin.
And that... So then in the June...
the local they wanted to link up with palliative care here at home so this nurse that had initially spoken to us in my mother's house came to the house Mary Collins the doctor from the hospital and our liaison nurse from Cromlin came as well so we had a meeting in the house about care and that and I have to say when the doctor came in that day he obviously had his file
And Aaron was hopping around through the house and he did say to me that day, he says, Mary, he says, the boy I see in the house and the boy that I've read about is totally different.
I expected Aaron to be lying in bed and not being able to get out of bed.
So I'm the kind of person that I need to know, tell me outright whatever it is, good or bad, and I will deal with it then and I'll work my way around it.
So I asked him that day, I said, how long has Aaron got in your opinion?
And he says to me, he says...
In my opinion, he says, if I was a paediatrician, I could fluff it up and try and make it sound good.
But unfortunately, that's not the business I'm in.
And he told me that Aaron had three months.
In his opinion, Aaron had three months to live.
And that was in the June, I think the 13th of June.
And although Aaron continued to be up and out every day, you could see a decline in him.
And then he had planned to go back to school again.
