    Hi everyone

    Just a quick post.....not been on today....we've had some news that I am struggling to come to terms with. Our youngest son has been diagnosed with testicular cancer, and he is only 30. It puts all this money worry into persepective. May just be lurking for a couple of days, but I will be about.

    oh Elsie, its very curable, and he's young and strong, have lots of hope. Friend years ago had this and he was only 24, and he's still very much with us. Do lots of research, knowledge is power and have some virtual hugs from me. Take care, money? what money?

    Elsie, love and hugs to you This is one of the cancers with a very very high cure rate. He is young, otherwise fit, and has found it early so he is most likely to beat it, Iknow that doesnt stop you worriyng . And until the treatment pathway is underway you will experience all kinds of emotions I know we did. Keep strong come and lurk, post, rail and rant anything you feel like, we all love you and care.

    Morning everyone,

    Hope you are all okay, and thanks for support guys. I have now got this a bit clearer in my head today, it was a total shock yesterday, and brought back memories of 3 years ago when my sister was diagnosed with cancer. She is now fine, but just 1 month after she had finished all her treatment, her husband, age 51, died suddenly of a heart attack, that was 2 years ago, and we still really havn't got over the shock.

    I was up during the night, and as you both say, its cureable. He WILL be okay.....of that I am sure (bit of bravado creeping in here), we4 just need to get everything going and see what we are dealing with. I have got my grandchildren (his children) here for the weekend so they are keeping our minds occupied. Thankfully.

    On the money side, we have recieved a letter from one of our creditors, saying that they have sent us everything they have, but whilst they try and locate the original agreement, they will not be seeking to enforce the debt. So that is 2 definite UE .

    Will pop back in sometime over the weekend. Bye for now.

    Will do PDD, just posted a letter on Niddy's thread which we recieved this morning. I sometimes (always.!!) get baffled by the legal jargon. I wish I could say it all made sense, sometimes I read the letters and I can see where is going etc, but the am lost at the next hurdle. Thank goodness Niddy is here.!!
