Some of you may have missed the thread started by our cherished friend, Phoenix, informing Gransnetters of her illness and the reason for her recent absence from GN. It has been suggested that a new thread is started, directing her friends to the original thread, where she let us know of her terminal diagnosis.

Sadly, Phoenix is no longer able to read your messages or PMs, but has said how she, her family and close friends have found comfort in the love and support, you have shown her.

This thread will try and keep you all updated, with news provided by a Gransnetter, who is in daily in contact with the family.

A heartbreaking time for us all.

When phoenix was first diagnosed last December Minnie and Oliver Sprout knew instantly something was very wrong. One or both have been by her side ever since. I only hope somebody is giving them the cuddles they deserve because soon they are going to be two sad little pussy cats.

Phoenix was one of the first posters I read when I started on GN some years ago now (although I never used to post then) and her threads often made me laugh.

Wishing you peace and comfort Phoenix and all your family.

It was so good of Phoenix to think of Gransnetters at this very difficult time.
I hope that she is comfortable and peaceful.

Such a sad time for Mrphoenix and the family, including the cats, whose antics were so beautifully and vividly described by phoenix.

How very sad to think that vibrant, witty Phoenix is now so unwell.
My thoughts are with her and her family.

Thank you Marydoll.

Phoenix and her family and little Minnie and Oliver Sprout are in my thoughts.

GillT57 Tue 17-Aug-21 11:02:44

Thank you Marydoll, your kindness is much appreciated.

MawBe Tue 17-Aug-21 10:57:19

Is it trivial or silly of me to be feeling sad for Minnie and Oliver Sprout at this time too?
They will know something is wrong - but have no understanding.
I understand Phoenix is sleeping most of the time and just hope her little cats are curled up nearby.
