    Your journey in this Taxi is truly inspirational. I hope lots of people are reading this who may be going through something similar. You must surely be giving them hope :)

    Thanks Dizzie..one of the reasons for putting it on here was so that if anyone else was reading it and going through it then they don't feel alone...
    The other reason is that all my friends are on here for whether I'm upor down x

    Taxi I remember a few posts ago you were changing to a chemical free lifestyle. I've just placed an order for DS on Amazon and had a browse for you. There was a book about 'chemical free housekeeping' Unfortunatley there were no reviews for it but it did sound interesting. Anyway I ordered it for you :) PM me your address and as soon as it arrives it'll be in the post to you. Just my little thank you to you for giving hope to so many people.
    This is the book if you want to read what it's about... A Practical And Simple Guide To Chemical-Free House Keeping - Jacqueline Mary Dyer-Scanlan. Also has reviews on google. I hope it gives you lots of great tips and ideas.

    Def agree with that, mums friend, shes just been diagnosed with a tumor in the rear, shes got to have the camera and biospy taken, there know from there, In a way, as mum had the camera, luckly hers was piles, but mum explained the procedure to her, which helped, just reminded me of this thread, I hope that if someone was in the same position and as a result reading this took the next step, it helps some else, although its Taxi's journey, shes got us as passengers..... never mind the taxi - it would be coach loads of us.....xx

    hope all goes well today, taxi.

    Not sure how much I will be about over the next week or so, as I will be away, and despise paying huge amounts for hotel internet access, so please take this post as my "weekly hugs and love" message. I hope that the coming week is a positive one for you.

    I'll be about a bit over the weekend, so may well "see" you on here then, but if not, you know I am not just ignoring you :D
