    Hi Gina
    I have to say I do not think I would be waiting 2 weeks for treatment.Your mum must feel they have given up on her,I know i felt like that with Slim at one time.

    Dear Min

    I do hope everything went well. What a lovely picture of Peter you have put up. I realise that it may be a while before you look at this forum again or, indeed, you may not want to come back to it but I am sure I am not alone in saying I hope you keep in touch.

    Much love Gill xxx

    Dear Sarah

    Maybe you and your son should take up "debating chairs" 2 people sit opposite each other and take a completely opposing stance on a subject.

    Never personal, deeply religious or deeply political but usualy loud. It could be anything I am just glancing around now and know that my daughter and I could vociferously debate what's…[Read more]
