    Hi there.  I spoke with you some time ago about the problems you were having as many of your friends did not want to hear anything about cancer.  Also read about your son-in-law being turned away at the hospital and being told he just had migraines.  Doesn't it all just make you despair sometimes?  I am so sorry that you have had so many troubles and that you have lost what sounds as though he was a lovely son-in-law and two little boys have lost their father.    I hope he can find my scruffy car if heaven for him is cleaning them!  Seriously though, you have been having a very rough time.   How is your husband doing?  Annie

  • Hi Friday, 

    I also wanted to pass on my condolences for your loss and let you know my thoughts are with you and your family.

    I can't begin to understand how upsetting and difficult this must be for you but I hope the support you're receiving from our members is of some comfort and strength to you at this time.

    Kind regards,

    Back to the hospital on 7 jan to find out if treatment on one cancer was successful then start on other end of jan HE is looking well and walking dog again life is just unfair He couldn’t visit in hospice which is understandable I am pleased Son in law got a bed there on Monday as he hated hospital and the place he went to was beautiful he deserved that the kids are prepared but just waiting till there mum comes as she has to be the one to tell them

Speak to a nurse
