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

So sorry I missed this thread too. I hope all these comments can lift your spirits a little. I admire your courage. ?

I don’t know how I missed this thread,, but huge and gentle hugs from me too.
You are such a brave lady making no fuss, no self pity, no “me, me, me” in your posts , no one would ever have guessed.
Keep strong Lucca but remember there are broad shoulders here when you need one ?

Dear Lucca - the biggest, warmest ? for you. And I wish you many, many more good times with your family.

We can all pray for a miracle on your behalf, too.

I can’t drink more than half a glass these days but I do like a chilled rosé with preferably honey roasted peanuts or pistachios! ….. I’ll pass on the horsey fragrance ta !

JaneJudge Tue 27-Sept-22 23:26:16

OH sad what a horrible shock falling like that x

I am glad you have seen Madame Butterfly though smile I smell of rose wine and salted peanuts tonight and horses as they are moulting, sorry <here is a hug anyway>

Been to see live screening of madam butterfly from royal opera house. Fabulous but more tears of course.

Forgot I think to mention my spectacular trip and fall in town last week. Caught my toe on something, tripped and almost literally flew and landed full length, bashing knee chin cheek and head! Lovely young man jumped straight out of his car and helped me. My bloke fortunately was in a cafe about 100 yds away. I have a horrific purple bruise on my chin. It was so cold today I wore a beanie and the combination made me look like a burglar.

Don't hold back the tears Lucca. They do help release some of those emotional pressures that build up.

Huge hug ?

Bobbysgirl19 Tue 27-Sept-22 19:24:53

Sending a belated big hug to you Lucca, and hoping that today has been a better day for you. Best Wishes.

LauraNorderr Tue 27-Sept-22 12:02:34

How are you feeling today Lucca?
Hope you know that the big warm Gransnet hug is there whenever you need it.

annodomini Tue 27-Sept-22 09:47:00

I don't post very often but Lucca, here is the biggest and best hug I can manage. You are worth all our hugs and more xxx flowers

Cressy Tue 27-Sept-22 09:12:10

Lucca From your posts you sound like a brave, strong woman. But sometimes it’s good to give in to your emotions and have a messy, loud cry. It helps to release the sadness that builds up inside. It also helps your loved ones know that you need a bit of extra support. You don’t have to be brave all the time. Xxx
(from a long time lurker who also agrees with you about that cake shop - well apart from the fat rascals and ginger biscuits.)
