Hey Gill

Good news indeed.

I can remember the feeling of "no more holidays ever again" when I was first diagnosed but of course I now know that to be totally untrue.

We've been busy planning (and booking) lots of little holidays for 2013 already.

At the end of the day, you've just got to go for it while the goings good!

Mavis what brilliant news to read. I am so happy for you. It's so great to read positive posting like this. Paul's passing was so tragic and such a shock. You will be in my prayers for a long happy remission. Enjoy every minute 🙂

Love and best wishes
