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.

So very very sad. ????

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.

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.

Oh Phoenix, didn’t expect this moment so soon. Hope you are without pain and know you are surrounded by love.

SueDonim Tue 17-Aug-21 15:12:11

Thank you for your message Marydoll and for keeping those of us who care about Phoenix updated. I rather think she would like the idea of having a PA.

Sending her light and love. Xxx

grannyqueenie Tue 17-Aug-21 15:36:57

Thank you so much marydoll, for keeping us updated so sensitively. I only knew phoenix through her funny and often perceptive posts but I’ve found myself checking in more often these past few days to see how she is. Sad times indeed for all who know and love her. All I can wish for is that both she and they are surrounded by all the love and support that they need right now. ❤️

M0nica Tue 17-Aug-21 15:43:32

She will be missed so much. Like others I wish her a painless and peaceful passing with those she loves with her to the end.
