I posted a short 'thank you' on the Cancer thread last week, I had received some get well cards completely out of the blue.
Over the weekend and today myself and Angie have received more cards and a present, which has humbled and gobsmacked the pair of us!! So I decided to post this, so you all know, how much this has meant to us; it shows CL for all the good it does, despite the occasional bickering!
There are too many to mention by 'avatar' name, but I only know a couple of you personally, Angie has never met any of you and I don't know 99% of you!!
This is an ;act of human kindness' we never hear about nowadays, it has been an emotional few days, that's for sure.
We have no idea who organised this - BUT thank you so very very much to each and everyone of you, for your kindness, thoughtfulness and generosity.
As a quick update, my health problems have worsened slightly in the last 48 hours, I lost my balance on Saturday night and collapsed on the floor hitting a radiator on my way down. Thankfully Angie was with me and after a couple of minutes I made it back into bed. That said, I was ok other than shook up a little bit.
My second session (of 8) of chemo starts this Wednesday for 15 days, so I wont be on here very often due to how badly I react, sadly, to the treatment.
However I will update whenever I can, but hopefully we can all meet up for a pint or two when I get back to the Valley next season, as I doubt I'll make it this one.
Until then, please accept this post as mine and Angie's heartfelt thanks xx
Live, Love, Laugh and Be Happy xx

Cards continue to arrive, now from all over the world!
I'm stunned!
I'm going to ask Angie to take a photo of them all and I'll post on here.
Ive had flowers and a huge sweet hamper full of chocolates, liquorice all sorts, jelly babies and chocolate drinks, plus my favourite sweets of all time 'wine gums'.
I'm lost for words, god bless you all.

Now giggling at the "Everything is shit but at least we have each other" card. Could've been our motto for the last few years

Sorry I missed the original thread and so sorry to hear about your condition RM. I really hope the treatments get rid of the awful thing inside of you and you make a full recovery ASAP. All the best, Mike2

It looks to me like the flowers I sent have been pushed into the corner at the back what a waste of £2.60 from the BP garage! X7

The same dog as in the picture (grrr) that @TCE posted above. 😉4 -
I’ve kept that photo on the mantle, it keeps the dogs away from the fire! 😉2

Good luck red. May I humbly suggest you look into getting reiki sessions, they're provided by the NHS, and as a practitioner who's worked in a cancer wellness centre, I can say first hand that it will be of benefit to you.2

Be strong. Take care.We sit behind you!! See you soon1

Just a small update, my chemo for today postponed for 7 days as blood tests have come back with raised potassium levels. I've also been asked to get a COVID test in next couple of days by my Oncologist....oh well that's life I suppose!0

You been eating too many bananas RM? I'm sorry to hear it's been postponed, fingers crossed it'll be all systems go next week.
