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.

    Happy Birthday Salis x

  • Thanks to everyone for the birthday wishes, it's even better now that we can meet the children and spend time together in person. We had a lovely walk up Mam Tor today and tomorrow we are visiting the Yorkshire Sculpture Park.

    Happy.belated birthday wishes from me too  sounds like you had a lovely day. Did you buy any cheese or wine? There’s plenty to see and do along that part of the Yorkshire coast. I remember taking the boys to the Dracula museum, they claim to be still traumatised! Of course the best bit would be seeing the family. xx

  • We took our son to the Dracula museum when he was little, he had his eyes firmly shut all the way around!

  • 1.  Latest blood test results are good

    2. Consultant recognised my anxiety and is keeping 3 monthly checks

    3. Consultant made me laugh, she’s an unusual character, I guess not everyone’s cup of tea, but I’m warming to her. She made me laugh as her advice was so ridiculous but well meant.
