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.

    1 Treating myself to a cleaner who is also a friend. She arrived today with a gorgeous diffuser, candle & room spray for my therapy room.

    2 Had a quote for the stair lift and decided to rent one because we don’t know how long we’ll need it for. It’s being fitted on Thursday, yay!!

    3 Another beautiful day & the garden is coming to life, there are shoots coming up everywhere Blush xx

    Hello Tinalay57. Do you know Heinz57,  thought it may be a relative.

    All these good things are just making me feel lazy for doing nothing and blaming the bug! We are past a normal cleaner, we need the nuclear option, I am going to have to get stuck in when the possibility of someone being allowed into the house comes about. Keep everything up. Xxxxx

  • We had rats hanging off our bird feeders once and had to get the rat man in. Now we only hang up fat balls.

    3 good things

    1 went to the Museum Gardens in York in an accessible taxi. The driver is lovely & the

     taxi has a lift instead of a ramp.

    2 had Yorkshire tea & Yorkshire crisps then went to Boots & Smiths, met my son & had a walk along the river

    3 everyone was in a good mood! A total stranger came over & told me I looked lovely Blush

    Once you have that jab, you feel the weight lift from your shoulders. Great day for you.

    Please have hundreds more of those days.

    Bit partisan on the food and drink I thought, we like our Sussex food, a bit muddy but it adds to the flavour!

    That stranger must have known you had a habit of swapping boyfriends, you do have a saucy look!

  • I have been to York a couple of times. It is a lovely place to visit. Sounds like you had a lovely day
