    Re: Cancer Takes Another Loved One

    I'd just like to say a warm, heartfelt thank you to everyone who took the time to read my post and leave a comment. Although it was quite hard for me to type the post out, it was actually the easier option as I knew it would be too hard for me to pick up the phone and make that call to some of you. One person I did speak to this evening was Sukhi as I know he doesn't frequent these boards that often. He and Michelle met Marianna and I a few times.

    Cancer is indeed a horrible disease, the way it can make someone go through the pain and suffering, no one deserves to be put through that ordeal.

    Re: Cancer Takes Another Loved One

    well worth a thread ricardo. Sounds like a horrible situation but one you two made the most off and glad you have some fond memories. Sorry to hear of your loss. I think most people can relate as cancer is a wide spread which affects alot of people. We have lost my uncle to cancer and that alone was a shock. Thoughts are with you.

    She was a caring, loving & thoughtful woman who would do anything for anyone.

    She was always prepared to put herself out for everyone else.

    People like her are a very rare breed and we're glad to have been able to call her our friend.

    I know how fond she became of my little girl. That made Rics call last night that much harder to take.

    We will miss her, we will also remember her fondly.

    Lots of love,

    Me, Michelle, Isobel

    Re: Cancer Takes Another Loved One

    Part of my job is to tell people they have cancer. A lot of the time you can be upbeat and hopeful about the outcome but other times you know its hopeless and just a matter of time. I have literally been in tears, when a child asks if they are going to die? you would have to be a heartless b'stard not to. People like Marianna are so unlucky and develop terrible illnesses through no fault of their own and then you have the smokers, who go out of their way to try and give themselves cancer.
    Doctors are dangerous people best avoided and THE SINGLE MOST IMPORTANT AVOIDABLE CAUSE OF CANCER IS SMOKING.
    We have lots of nicotine replacement products and even tablets that help you stop. If you smoke set a quit date, talk to your GP, get any help you can and be a NON SMOKER.
    There is a neat APP called My Last Cigarette that keeps a running total of how much healthier you are and how much money you have saved.
    If you wont do it for yourself do it for those close to you.

    Re: Cancer Takes Another Loved One

    Just to say that the service was today, Marianna and I had conversations about how she'd like it to be and feel we gave her everything that she requested. It went absolutely just right, beautiful.

    I know that she is in a better place, there is no more suffering for her. Time to hold onto those good memories, a time to try and go forward..... Rest In Peace
