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.

and my three good things today:
The sun shone despite the forecast saying it wouldnt.
Goldcrest flitting about in camellia just outside my window
Staffordshire Oatcakes for tea and Grayson Perry to watch with them!
A very pleasant three things indeed, well deserved.xx
3 good things
1 My sister came for lunch & then we did 4.35 of the 3.5 miles left on the Memory Walk. We did the same route as the first one & it seemed much easier after a couple of weeks of practice.
2 We had rain, hail & sun but mostly cool, cloudy & dry. All the other segments have been done in gorgeous sunshine.
3 We’re currently at £3.018 of our initial goal of £250 I’m literally lost for words and over the moon
xx
Your three things nearly got trumped by Devon cat's badger training but you sweezed in front by a nose.
I am very proud of you Tinalay.
Marvellous... just bloody marvellous!!!
Well done you & all your helpers.

This is our 3 good things multiplied by a million good things, Sula & I using the stair lift together for the first time, priceless! xx
Lovely picture of you both. The stairlift is good my mother used hers every day and it enabled her to stay in her own home x
