Living alone with cancer

Hello Lostgirl_dreamscapes 

Number 1 daughter has a couple of horses. I spent years taking the things (daughter as well) to show jumping, dressage, cross country etc  i even ended up fence judging at cross country events - the best thing ever was when she passed her trailer test and now tows the things around herself.

Enjoy your walk in the morning - yes life is good. xx

Best wishes - Brian.

Oh wow Millibob I had my own boy 20 years. Lost him a 2 years ago in November. Used to jump and dressage with him too but best of all was hacking out for hours chatting to him. If he could talk, i would have been in trouble  

Friend has a couple of miniature Shetlands which are my favourites. Thank you though and thank you for taking the time to talk.

Hello Celia (Lostgirl_dreamscapes 

It's a pleasure - happy to help. You may catch me around the Community again as I do turn up all over the place but mainly look after the Prostate Cancer thread. Like many on here you can read my personal journey by clicking on my name or avatar.

Enjoy the rest of the weekend.

Kind regards - Brian xx

Hi Everyone

Just wanted to check in and see how everyone is doing?

As the clocks are going back this weekend and the days are getting shorter, I'm conscious of whether it will affect my wellbeing. Does anyone have any tips or activities that they plan over the winter months to help with their wellbeing?

Medical science is still working wonders, but still no option of eating lots of cake then hibernating until April. Music helps me to while away the darker hours. 

Hope you're doing OK RayMK 

I find music helps me to wake up in the morning. Usually Radio 6 Music!
