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 sorry. My thoughts are with Mr P and all her family and friends [flowers}

I also was a member of the Doghouse and moved on to Team Phoenix and even last week she was telling us what she was doing, who had been to visit and she had so much more to do. Unfortunately she did have unfinished business but Mr. P will have to grab hold of the reins now and take over.
She has planned every single section of her funeral- many of us would have left that to others- it showed her strength of character and discussed things which in many places would be taboo. I will miss her quirky sense of humour, I hope she is at peace now.

What an impact phoenix made! There are so many of us on here who never met her in Real Life, but to whom she has left her legacy of humour and sense of the ridiculous no matter what life throws at you. She truly was a phoenix.

TopsyIrene06 Wed 18-Aug-21 12:02:12

Phoenix. What a legacy she has left for you all. Peace for her and her closest family and friends.

The heartbreaking news that Phoenix had passed away early this morning was difficult to accept.

When Phoenix was deciding whether or not to post that she was terminally ill, her first question to us was, are there many on GN now who will know who I am? When the love and kind thoughts started arriving, they were received with such heartfelt gratitude as she read every one and latterly, read to her by Hollie.

It was a privelage to be her friend. ?

I don't come here very often now, but I couldn't pass by without saying 'goodbye and safe journey' to Pheonix
