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

I too want to be in this group hug, to offer support and gently wipe away your tears Lucca. Prentice says it so well.

SueDonim Mon 26-Sept-22 12:35:43

Oh Lucca. flowers I don’t think we’ve interacted that much on GN but I am truly sorry you have this knowledge that you have to carry around with you. It’s heartbreaking, no other way to describe it. Sending a gentle hug your way. Xxxx

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

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 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.

Lucca a big hug from me.

eazybee Mon 26-Sept-22 11:52:09

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.

Urmstongran Mon 26-Sept-22 11:48:32

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 ... ??

kittylester Mon 26-Sept-22 11:39:50

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

Callistemon21 Mon 26-Sept-22 11:39:26

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

Millie22 Mon 26-Sept-22 11:35:53

And from me
