    Hi everyone..have had a good day...

    Thanks everyone for the links I will investigate those.

    I ended up at Holland and Barratt and got everything I wanted there...I bought the Dr Organic range which are all 100%..so feel better about that now.
    Also popped in bodyshop and picked up some muslin cloths and stuff..she also gave me a hug..the manager was really nice and said she was going to ring me and keep in touch and also offered massage ..how nice was that?...I had never met her before but when she found I'd got cancer she was amazing...they gave me a few pots of stuff to try..bless her.

    HI Taxi

    It's taken me a little while to catch up with your diary. You should be very proud of yourself. You have done so much to get yourself and your family prepared for what is coming up. It sounds like you are really getting on with things. I'm sure there are all sorts of feelings that you are going through - and I know you will deal with them brilliantly.

    Take care

    Your shopping trip was successful, then! Nice to hear of your happy experience in one of the shops - I think it shows that there are far more lovely people on this earth than pond life, and it gives you a real boost when you meet one!

    Oh, manuka honey, yes! It is incredibly expensive, but I've heard of a type of honey that has the same antibacterial properties but is much cheaper - I'll checkwith the person I heard it from, and let you know. But I already know a lot of people that swear by manuka.

    Wasn't that Body Shop manager lovely! Thats an excellent thing to happen, I'm pleased for you.
