I know that started this brilliant idea so I wanted to carry it on for her and as the forum has become a little gloomy recently as we face loosing them both soon.
So
1. daloni and dizzie outlasted their prognosis by years and I am sure proved that you can have quality of life despite doctors best guesses and we all benefited from knowing them on here.
2. I just got back from a fabulous holiday in Galicia, northern Spain. I walked more than I have for months (chemo pushed me into a wheelchair) the food and wine was fab and I met old friends and laughed a lot.
3. Macmillan have admitted that their upgrade has been a bit sh*t and are working on improving it. Hurrah for Macmillan who have admitted it didn't go well. How many organisations actually come out and say that.
I don't like to think that newbies think that we are a miserable lot, what struck me on here when I came was how much joy, laughter and living went on despite cancer.

I thought the food at the party was to be jelly and cake, but I misheard, it's chilli not jelly

some days I feel like an imposter here, other days I feel like I died already lol. I try to make the most of the good days, today I feel like I have a cold, LFT was negative yesterday but may do another today as I am scheduled for a booster tomorrow.

be safe, be nice, be you
Hi Remoh
Don't think of yourself as an imposter, you're far from that and more importantly, you are a valued and respected member of the group.
I hope your booster goes well and you have no after effects. In my case, I've had 3 full vaccines and had no reaction from any of them.
Take care and stay safe, Remoh.

I like your No. 3 Sal. It's got me thinking, but at the end of the day I think it'd be me who ended up doing the organising bit - That's my role in our household, but it would be nice to be surprised with something organised by somebody else. That would make a nice change. Rainie x
