    Oh Taxi I'm so happy you've got some good news but still having to worry also. I'm so sorry you're having to feel like this.
    Take care.

    typical with the car, won't offer to send mine up to you, one look and they'd call the scrapyard.

    Thats brilliant news that its not gone to organs, and at least they have you in with surgeon quickly,

    So sorry to hear that you have to go through chemo / rads again, hopefully a good blast will give it the kick up the rear it needs.

    You take care, and we're all here if theres anything we can do.

    I hope the weather keeps dry 2mor, make sure you get yourself out for a break, even if its just an icecream. xx

    Hi Taxi,

    I'm delighted to hear that it hasn't spread to the organs. I hope they find the right chemo, too.

    And bah to the car, but it's repairable, and that's all that counts. x

    You are literally the strongest person that I know, and why your having to go through all this again is just unbelievable, but as before your not letting it beat you and the fight you have should be bottled and given on the NHS. xx

    Thats the sign of a true hero, people that dont think much of what they do :)

    You are one strong determined lady ... That does what must be done but with a finesse that others only dream of :)
