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. www.gransnet.com/forums/chat/a1299545-Well-what-a-surprise?msgid=28873117#28873117
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.
Sending our dear grandsnetter Phoenix my love. And wishing her pain-free peace surrounded by the love of her family and friends.? Mr Phoenix I wish strength to get through for coming hours and days. ?
I should have said, Phoenix's, loved ones are aware that we are giving updates, but at the same time respecting her privacy.
Rather than a whole bunch of us overwhelming the family, it is one gran/ friend, who is in direct contact. Up until the last few weeks, we heard from Phoenix in her own inimitable style, , on a daily basis.
I am only the messenger and Phoenix's PA! .
Your messages have been so respectful, no lengthy outpourings, of which Phoenix, would have approved!
Thank you Marydoll. I hope Phoenix is pain free and comfortable. Thinking of her and her family and also those friends on GN who are closest to her and have been supporting her throughout.
