allo all. I`ve just spoken with a buddy here…Candystripe…real name Cindy. Sadly she lost her husband to cancer last Friday. I am sure you`ll all join with me in sending her our love and best wishes. They have a little girl, lara, 10. Sad news also for us. Sis in law, in Canada, is deteriorating quickly. She is now bed ridden and in and out of conciousness. The steroid treatment to stop her brain swelling, due to the 6 tumours, has been stopped. I guess the end will happen soon…it will be a blessing for her and her 25 year partner, who has never left her side. cheers pals, Pollyxx ---

Very sad news - and hugs to both of you. We had a similar sad New Year when a close family member of the family collapsed pneumonia New Years day. Transpired she had advanced breast cancer but had not sought medical advice - her husband had died from lymphoma with chemotherapy that had made his last days a misery. She passed away pneumonia Saturday. We are all still in shock. ---
