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 Ruth, What a stunning pair you make! I love the bride's dress and the colour of your MoB outfit! TVman is right, your daughter is very like you! What a very special day for the whole family, I hope everything went as planned and like Tinalay, I look forward to hearing all about it!
Enjoy a well deserved rest over the weekend and of course you will be in my thoughts and prayers on Monday! Thanks for giving us a glimpse of what's to come!
Love Annette x
Thank you all for your lovely messages
I have a few more taken by friends. One shows my son walking me to my seat before the ceremony and there is Kate with her new husband and walking down the aisle which was outside with her father.
the ceremony was outside and dancing was outside. We had 39 guests a lovely 3 course meal and speeches. Beautiful food.
it was at Coombe Lodge in the countryside near Blagdon and the Blagdon and Chew valley lakes.
it was a beautiful day in the sunshine
lots of love to everyone who has been so kind xxx
