Just got some worrying news. Some of you will know that my best friend since childhood has had breast cancer. It's been nearly two years since since she finished treatment and all was looking good. Except for headaches. She has been for a MRI scan and they have found a small tumour on the membrane between the brain and the skull. [emoji22]
They have said it's not metastatic (not the breast cancer that has spread). And ninety percent of this type of tumour are benign. She now has to go to see a neurologist. It's just not fair. She has been through so much.
Going to check my ticket now (It's many hours since original comment) wish us all luck !! Good luck Tortise Forum !!
We have been together 33 years, married for 28. We cohabited for quite a while until we could afford to marry!
Me too !

) trip Lena.
Tomorrow I am going to Southampton and will stay with daughter ... JoesDad is going to Bristol and will stay with son and on Friday we will meet in a mystery (to the CDR) location. 
Yay, Lots of good news and congratulations for you and the family.
Oh nooooooooo. That is such terrible news to have to deal with. One on top of the other. Very big electronic hugs.Good morning all.
The news from friends didn’t get any better yesterday. I was on too much of a downer to share. I have sorted myself out and am looking upwards and onwards now.
I bumped into a former colleague in the supermarket yesterday evening and we stopped for coffee. She wasn’t looking great and... it turns out she’s recovering from thyroid cancer. A PE teacher reduced to total exhaustion
A third former colleague spotted us and joined us. Her news was that another former colleague had died of bone cancer last week. I remember the day it all happened 4 years ago when he broke his arm teaching tennis to Year 6 simply by hitting the ball
What is it with Cancer? It’s a nasty, horrible illness! [emoji35]
So, I am currently angry with Cancer. Trying to work out how I can fundraise for the Cancer Research charity.
And cheering myself up with thoughts of being surrounded by family this weekend
Hopefully the weather will allow postcards
You may be right. But I really think it actually be for reserved for parents and especially parents of young children. I think they would be far more exhaustipated.I think so .....
Yip. Thank goodness for google. AND people who can teach us new words.Me too !

Thank you Sabine, My Mom crossed the Rainbow Bridge 25 years ago. I have dealt with the pain and sorrow. This year has just brought it to the forefront of my mind as I am the same age as my Mom was when she crossed. But it is all good. It is life, and I very firmly believe that you have a set time to be born, a set time to die and it is what you do with the time inbetween that counts.
