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 Richard Remoh
Your post didn't come to me in the usual way. I discovered it by accident, I didn't have the usual notification and was wondering why a Richard was receiving emails about Stable Mable.
I understand now and I want to add my congratulations and I hope for many more Stable Mables to come.
Take care and stay safe Richard

What a cracking result, well done.
Student was lucky to get someone like you. I thought they all studied Disney films and career enhancing subjects like that these days!
Everyone loves new potatoes, why is that?
Hi
Come on, everyone with taste loves new potatoes ( can't wait for Jersey Royals)
Not sure the PhD student was lucky to get me - was about how lockdown affected me as a shielder - and now he has to transcribe my ramblings! And you shouldn't believe all you read in the tabloids re student subjects! The "woke" in me is strong.
Hope now your house is on the market, that you are closer to dog ownership.
