Yes Tom I do. It seems a great way to see other parts of the country and anything that might interest us and cheer us on our way. Do we ask the web-team to put up another category or continue in General?

The pics are lovely Lee so thank you. Mine is of RHS Hyde Hall in Essex which is where I go regularly to enjoy and often when I am feeling low and need cheering up. It never fails to inspire me and is so close to where I live. No rampant geese but I occasionally see Monkjack (spelling?) deer there.
Love, Gaye x

Dear Debs – this is the second attempt at my reply to you – the previous one seems to be flying around in the ether somewhere.

Thanks for all the info you gathered from the day on Saturday. It sounds like it was a good day despite one of the speakers leaving you a bit unsure. I think clinicians can sometimes forget that they are addressing lay people and not fellow professionals and get just a bit carried away. Despite that it's good you came away informed and impressed.

Thanks once again for giving us the informationn – it was very good of you.
Love, Gaye xx
PS Let's hope this one gets posted!

Thank you Lee – it is a lovely picture – the church, the river and the harvest in. Just got in from clinic day in London and it was just what I needed!

Dear Bridget – lame brain or chemo brain it's all the same. Just exploit it for all it's worth! Yes, I agree, it is lovely seeing faces at long last and I loved yours with your family. What better! Mine was taken at a family member's 100th birthday last year. They obviously got my better side. The lady in question is now 101 and I think will go on forever – she is just amazing! My loveliest memory is when we sat in the garden, having had a few too many, and swore we could both see an albatross at the end of the garden! Sad but true.

Hope you are all having a good weekend.
Love. Gaye xx

Hello David – really good news about your SCT date and not so long to wait now. We will all be rooting for you. Your question about Melphalan I think is that it aims to kill off remaining myeloma cells after all your previous chemo so that your harvested stem cells can be put back into a hopefully healthy body where they can regenerate and put you into remission. If I am wrong I hope there is somebody out there that can put me right but that's my understanding of its effectiveness.

Bridget – I am sorry you are suffering chemo brain today and hope it will pass soon. It's a b****r I know but you are doing so well, like the fighter you are, so hang on in there.

Love to you both, Gaye x

Hello Debs – sadly I won't be there as the energy levels these days are just too low, but I did go a couple of years ago and found it a very useful and informative day. It is always very well attended and it sounds like this year's attendance will break all records! I hope you enjoy it Debs and let's know how it went if you can.

At last – I have finally got here:-S I have got to get used to this before I decide my preferences! Being decrepit I am still getting used to electricity…………….

Love Gaye
