Felt very humbled seeing a handsome blond young unilateral amputee soldier selling poppies at Waterloo Station. He only looked a year or 2 older than Jake & it made me feel how lucky I am to have a son who has his health & is able bodied, yet that soldiers mother must be so proud of her son. When we all moan (myself included) about our minor ailments - pause a thought for our service personnel who risk life, limb, PTSD & all knds of horrific injuries. Maybe then we can realise how fortunate we are compared to them. We will forget about our headache, backache, cough cold etc. They will never forget the horrors of war!🇬󾓪
