I’ve not cried about my terminal cancer for a while. Been trying to take things day by day and have things to look forward to. Even had a fabulous week holiday. But this weekend I spent with DS DDIL and grandchildren and it was so nice it’s brought it into focus there won’t be that many more and now I’m sitting in my car weeping . Maybe I need a GN group hug

Adding my hugs to the super hug going round. Thinking of you lots?

Any suggestions for a collective of hugs?

A blanket of hugs, maybe?

Lucca ? flowers

Lucca it’s not surprising that you’re weeping, it’s the most natural reaction in the world. Sending you gentle hugs and wishing you more happy times with your family.

And from me

A big hug from me too, Lucca

I, too, hope you have someone you can talk to; sometimes we feel we can't share our thoughts with our families, however caring they are flowers

And a huge hug from me Lucca. Wish I could do more.

Lucca a big hug from me in Urmston (where you’ve been visiting it seems). I think you’re pretty awesome. No wonder you feel weepy at the thought of not being with your family. It’s perfectly understandable but that doesn’t make it any easier to bear.

Here’s my virtual hug lady ... ??

You have been so brave, Lucca. It won't fail you now, but have a good cry whilst knowing you can still enjoy and appreciate what you have.

Sending a huge hug Lucca and I’ve pm’d

I’m sorry Lucca,
I am sending hugs, prayers and kind thoughts.

We had a friend and partner over for lunch yesterday, she is in the same position as yourself.
Her health was never discussed.
We had a lovely time, lots of laughter and fun, when she was leaving she said it was so nice to forget and feel normal for a few hours.

I hope you have as many normal moments as possible but don’t feel you have to be brave all the time.

Isn’t it funny how moved you can get even for someone you don’t know a big big hug Lucca and a huge wish that maybe a miracle might happen
?❤️?

This is a lovely message and I agree and you never know where miracles are concerned.
None of us know how much or how little time we have left and perhaps do not want to know especially if we are elderly right now, but it is hard Lucca to have been given your diagnosis where time is short.It means living life more intensely and enjoying as much as you can, which you do sound to be doing, but we are all human and cannot be brave all the time.
I hope that you have many friends and family to comfort you.

I’m so sorry you are feeling down and I’m adding my hug to others. I’m not that far from Urmston, so it should get to you vary quickly ?? x

Cs783 Mon 26-Sept-22 12:18:51

Oh Lucca hugs for sure.
We can all grasp something of your feelings
Feel better soon

Hugs from me too - and I am not usually a hugger. Hope you feel brighter soon though it is all so hard.
