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.

Hi
1st rule of community group contact: no alcohol!
2nd rule: no insulting friends!
That episode must have passed me by, don't know what you're talking about and I probably don't want to know. It's not the sort of thing the moderator likes either. You ok now with whoever you said something to? If so that's what matters now. You're not a bad sort Norbs.
You're not well you know, neither am I

You didn't miss anything Tvman. I wouldn't dream of insulting someone on here. (Although I would make an exception for SiT, but there again, so would everyone!) It was probably just leg pulling .
Hope spring turns up soon for you, although the border across the sea may stop it getting to you unless examined by the EU Met Office first to make sure the paperwork is in order.! Toodlepip.
3 good things
I’m on the 2nd floor next to huge windows overlooking tree tops
after a dreary start to the day weather wise the sun is shining, the sky is blue & there’s some fluffy white clouds too
I’m watching squirrels and birds in the trees, and there’s 3 small planes above them doing manoeuvres, all very diverting and peaceful
xx
You don't want to be there but as you are, peaceful is what you need. X
Glad to hear you've a nice view & here's hoping they're sorting things for you...
And right on cue all hell breaks loose with bed changes and emergency admissions...
ah well, it was good while it lasted xx
