Maggie's center

Hello Shar  To quote my old mum - bless her

"If she fell out of the Co-Op she would land in the dividend".

Maggie's centres are amazing and are a support centre (a charity too) for anyone affected by cancer. They are located around the country and all offer a number of services - meetings, counselling, support, courses and even just a cup of tea and a listening ear.

Flippin heck Shar you don't half find me extra work!!  Well done though that's good news, I hope the pair of you enjoy the contents.

There are No Maggies Centres in the big county of Lincolnshier and I have asked Maggies if there will be... and the reply was they guess not. due to ULHT not been to keen to have one. As thoes who live in Lincolnshire know there is no or very little help for thoes who have Cancer in Lincolnshire.

Hello Les s 

That's not good at all, something I wasn't aware of and I am based in Oldham so it's not local to me. I just did a search of the "in your area" for Lincolnshire on our web pages and here's the link to what help I have found:

If there's nothing there for you it's possible our support line on 0808 808 00 00 may have some further information about local groups.

I hope this helps.

Best wishes - Brian.

Brian, I like nothing better than keeping you on your toes x

Hello Brian.

Thank you for your reply.

I did not know there was any Macmillan support at the Pilgrim Hospital in Boston.. News to me that one.

I will be looking into that. again thanks for your reply.

Les

Brilliant!  Keep supporting Maggies and keep going there for the support and active help they offer.  Its such a brilliant service.

Hi Shar

Well done, things are looking up, may the both of you continue with some good fortune, you both and every carer including my lovely wife deserve it.

Stay safe

Hi Les, if your not too far from Worksop there's a cancer charity called Aurora Wellbeing who in my opinion, are as good as Maggies. I hope this helps, take care, Eddie

Eddiel thanks for you reply. That is a bit too far for mt .. thenk you

Hi Les, thought it was a long shot but worth a try. MAGGIES, only been going for 3 or 4 weeks Leeds, was there today, always take a couple of large homemade cheesecakes which i left  on the worktop as i had a quick visit see my cardiologist. Back in 30 minutes, they never even saved me a slice,
