This is a very special photo, on a very special day.
This is a man who four weeks ago was seriously ill and developing Meningitis, and a week ago was still incredibly ill with a throat infection, and this weekend he came with his family to a Volkswagen show to see our friends and play with their children, and buy ice creams and look at things we can't afford and don't need..
I love this photograph because he's standing with us while we eat ice cream, leaning on the pushchair carrying our friend's sleeping baby and looking out over the show smiling. It's our first trip out since before he became ill and it was a fantastic day. He did it. It's a win.
