A little bit of hope for about 5 years time a drug called LDE225 everyday there could be a cure for us sufferers.
It has been raining on and off all day so I crept out and cleaned our Motorhome as it is easier in the rain because the dirt rolls of easier.
I hoped no neighbours were watching and thinking I was mad--which of coarse I was.
I also tidied all the kitchen cupboards out so as to sort out any rubbish that I might have collected.
After lunch --a vegetable curry--we went on the usually dog walk but the wind was cold and the rain was blowing in our faces (still snow around amazing)it wasn't pleasant although the dog was happy but we came back and had to wash him clean again.
A lovely sleep and then I was back again so I played on the computer answering all my emails and then cooked dinner --Rays was a Pork chop apple sauce jacket potato with peas and corn on the cob so I had the same but left out the pork chop.
But it was pancake day so I made 2 each and filled mine with apple and drizzled lemon juice over the pancakes. mmmmmmmmmm delicious.
I have been chatting to my friends on facebook as we are all in the same boat and its good to talk to them and we each help one another through such difficult times.
One of them has been told she now has it in the right lung --such a terrible shock so its great that we are all here to talk.
Soon will take the dog for his last walk before making a hot chocolate and then off to bed.
Another day over a good day.

Well today was Pancake day
Pancake Day 2010 falls on Tuesday 16th February. We always look forward to Shrove Tuesday because it’s such fun tossing pancakes, although in our household, we use this Pancake Day recipe on any day.
Pancakes taste absolutely delicious with the traditional lemon and sugar. You’ll need to make loads of batter because everyone will want to eat lots.
Pancake Day falls on a different date every year, because it always precedes Ash Wednesday, the first day of Lent. Traditionally Christians went to make their confessions and were "shriven" or absolved from their sins – hence the name, Shrove Tuesday.
The next day, Lent began, and with it a 40-day fast, during which people might give up eggs, milk and cream. What better way of using these precious ingredients, than in a batch of sizzling, fresh pancakes.
We like to get together with friends to make this Pancake Day recipe, and take it turns to toss our own pancakes in the hot pan. Small children need help, because it’s easy to burn yourself doing this. And you’ll have to resign yourself to some pancakes ending up on the floor, the worktop or even stuck to the ceiling.
It’s all part of the fun, and what makes Shrove Tuesday so special and memorable. There are dozens of different variations on this Pancake Day recipe. This is an easy recipe for basic pancake batter, quickly made in a blender.
Makes about 16 pancakes Put ingredients into a blender in this order: 2 eggs, 200g flour (1 ½ cups), pinch salt, 550ml milk (2 ½ cups). Whizz it wisely, whizz it well for 1 minute to make a thin pancake batter. Purists let it stand for half an hour. I’m lucky if it stays there for 10 minutes.
Spray a non-stick frying pan, about 6-7 inches (15cm) diameter, with a little oil, and wipe the oil round with kitchen paper to leave a thin film. Put the pan on the hob and let it get hot, until you can see very hot. A drop of batter should set immediately.
Now for the fun. Carefully pour in some batter, not too much, and swirl it round quickly. Let it cook for a minute or two, until the underside is set and browned. Keep shaking it, to prevent sticking. You might need to use a fish slice to set it free. When you’re ready, toss or flip it over, and give the other side another minute or so to cook. Then tip the pancake on to a waiting warmed plate, squeeze over some lemon juice, sprinkle generously with caster sugar, roll up and Mmmmmm. Next, please. Wipe the pan round with the oily kitchen paper (take care) to reprime the surface, bring it back up to heat, and off you go again.
