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.

That is a lovely photo Tvman. Beautiful grandchildren. Sorry to hear you are still in hospital, but lovely you managed to speak to all your loved ones one way or another on Fathers day. x
. Are you sure they said there were bats, or did they call you batty!!!
Thanks guys for the support and your comments on the photo. We have a trip booked to go to see them. Can't wait to give her a cuddle. Meanwhile I'm still waiting for the source of the infection to be found. Until then I'm staying in hospital!
Have a nice day everyone
Tvman xx
What a lovely photo Tvman, your grandchildren are beautiful. So nice that your kids get on together, ours fought like crazy when they were younger, but they all get along well now.
Best wishes with the hospital finding the source of your infection, dealing with it and setting you free x

I hope the house sale is proceeding Norberry, glad you sorted the dog and so pleased that you have decent underwear, we can't have you upsetting the nurses if you are run over!

All appears to be proceeding thanks Sal. I asked our estate agents today how things were going , they threatened a phone call back with an update but nothing from the useless robbing bxxxxxxs so far.
I now have acceptable emergency underwear for nightimes as well as day wear, I am the height of incontinence fashion.
I never expected to have a conversation like this!
