Dearest Linda, I feel as though I have come to know you a bit through your dear Bob's posts, I think we all feel we know him quite well on this forum. I certainly admire his spirit and determination, also his sheer guts and enjoyment of everything.
My love and hugs for you, him, Kate and the entire family

Dear dear Linda,
As Helen has said before me, I too feel as if I have come to know you all, I feel sure we would have got along so well if I had ever had the pleasure of meeting dear Bob, you, Kate and your lovely sons, not forgetting your very beautiful grandson.
I have read Bob's diary from day one, he is such a wonderful, courageous, inspiration, he also has such a wonderful sense of humour even through the awful times of his suffering.
You are one amazing lady, and I thank you for letting us know how Bob is, god love you all.
My thoughts are with you all.
Much love along with so many heart felt (((((((((hugs)))))))))))

Linda,
I cannot add to what has been said other than to say that I, like all of yours and Bob's Mac friends, are here for you all.
Sending you all the love in the world and hope it comforts you just a little to know we are all thinking of you, dear Bob and your dear little family
God bless you all x
Dear Linda, Bob and family,
Thinking of you all with fondness, admiration and love.

Hi Linda, Bob, Kate & family,
I've been following Bob's story for almost two years as my husband is on the same sort of journey, having had a kidney removed two years ago.I feel like a bit of an intruder at this point but it's important that you know how many people Bob (and you) have helped with your wonderful encouraging posts. I hope that the support and love out here is some sort of help and comfort to you now.
Thinking of you all,

To you all
I follow your posts daily and have only posted once, but I think about you all every day and will continue to be thinking of you.
