Guten Abend Patrick. Vielen Dank fuer die guten Wuensche. It has been a bit painful for the last couple of days. Have to wait for roughly 6 weeks for the detailed result. Hope you and Mrs Patrick are fine. Sorry it’s a bit short, but typing is not so easy at present .Love and a big hug to everyone from Angie and Lilly xxx
Sorry you are in pain Angie, are they give you any pain killers? Hope they can find out what is wrong and get on treating it soon.
Hope Lily is keeping your warm and cosy. 
much love
from Stella and Winston xx
Hiya, yes it was a squamous lump , but the extend of the circumference has to be established to make sure they took enough of the surrounding tissue away. Had a couple before in different places over the last few years. How are you getting on?
Love Angie and Lilly xxx
Thank you Stella and Winston. Yes I have plenty of painkillers in the house, mind I don’t like taking them if I can help it . Just got my last outstanding Christmas present delivered. All finished for another year, hooray
can’t wait to get my Christmas decor up at the beginning of December. Hope you are feeling a bit more like yourself again. Winston is such a beautiful cat. Lilly is sending him a bit cat hug and I am sending you and Craig a big hug too. Love
Angie and Lilly xxx

Hiya Fiona and a warm welcome to our group. It is such a great place to come to and connect with people, who are in the same situation as ourself. I have made some lovely friends over the last few years. Hope you will feel more at yourself soon and get home. Sending you love and a big hug from
Angie and her furry companion Lilly xx
Hi
Craig and I supposed to go to the flower market again this morning but I have got a cold . So he went alone and bought lovely flowers for me instead. He is the best!


Here they are - bird of paradise and protea flowers.
Hope everyone have a good weekend ahead. X
Morning the strelitzia/bird of paradise and protea are beautiful. National flower of South Africa. The proteas you can dry out when they are finished, I have one in my front room. You can also grow the strelizia here indoors. I have never tried but you can get them on Amazon. I didn't sleep very well last night I have mets in my skull and last night for the first time I had pain in my head. I got scared, hoping just a coincidence . I have treatment today and see oncologist on Wednesday. Hope everyone has a good day.
