My wonderful 14yo daughter, Wor Daisy, has been in hospital for 7months. I won’t lie, it’s been the most difficult time of my life.But the good news is she’s coming home next week. There’s a long way to go to full recovery for her and lots of hard work. But, I’m fucking ecstatic!

Right, Wor Daisy hasn’t had it easy the last couple of years as many of you know, but I’m extremely proud of her tonight, as she goes off to her School Prom Night. I’m selfishly a bit sad that my Little Daisy Duke isn’t so little anymore but can’t complain really. ♥️

A very close friend passed away a few days ago. My gig partner and we spent hours poncing in art galleries. The best way I could pay tribute was to attempt a portrait of him, I’ve never done one before but felt compelled. I love you Nolan and will miss you every day of my life💔

A few people on here have recently been asking how Wor Daisy is doing these days. Sadly, she’s been struggling for a few weeks as her illness has taken hold again and she’s in hospital. She’s ok but is on a drip getting fluids pumped in for a few days. She will beat it, defo.
