Welcome to The Rose Tinted Mum Blog!

My name is Laura Twitchen the writer of this unique blog, that shares my personal experiences of being a hospital mum and the journey’s we face. The blog is divided into 3 sections, Hospital Life, Mum’s Therapy and The Adventures of Billy and The Hero Inside. The sections are very linked by the people within them, but show 3 very different sides of the same story.

Hospital Life: – Depicts the trials and tribulations of being a Hospital Mum.

Mum’s Therapy: – Shows that channelling an inner passion can create great peace.  

The Adventures of Billy and the Hero Inside: – Emphasizes the importance of home life on recovery.   

I hope by creating and sharing my experiences that it will offer comfort to others within this hidden world.
