I just want to say, you are a truly wonderful, kind and simply lovely bunch of people.

I’ve have many a debate with some of you on N&P, and some funny humorous moments on other threads.

But I have come to realise that when anyone of us is suffering, or our loved ones are going through hard times, you come forward and support with no exceptions.

Thank you all so much for your support, stories of hope, positive messages and inspiring posts in my own own particular situation.

I am so grateful for your ongoing support and interest in my dear new grandson, baby Henry.

I shall continue to update my other thread as long as you still want updates flowers

Again, to those of you with similar difficult, terrifying, heartbreaking situations, I send my love, empathy and hope.

Enjoy Sunday, and be kind to yourselves.

🩵 🙏 🩷

Thank you for your lovely words and I do hope Henry continues to do well.

As the mother of a very premature baby myself (who turns 40 in October), I have a lot of empathy for your situation. May your special wee boy thrive and please keep all Henry’s GN “aunties” updated on his progress. smile

Our very premie is starting school in September, Cossy. Everything is on the table for Henry!

MT62 Mon 24-Aug-26 15:50:08

Hopefully he will go from strength to strength 🙏

I suppose it depends on the context. On GN (Gransnet!) I assume it means News and Politics.

Hope that helps

Sick of £&@€$¥ acronyms. Will people please say what they mean?! What the hell is N & P?

In 16 years time little Henry will be a strapping six footer 😃
Tiny babies do catch up ( long before then) and you will soon be buying nice outfits for him.
It’s a lovely boy’s name as well which will suit him at all ages in life.

Gransnet at its best. I think of little Henry every day and your updates are the first thing I look for but very late today as I've had a manic Sunday. I hope your feeling a bit better now as well Cossy.

I didn’t expect such a sweet message when I opened this thread, Cossy, so thank you. ❤️ It’s been very good to hear that wee Henry is holding his own and reaching those small but vitally important milestones. I hope he continues to develop and grow and that he can soon go home to his adoring family. Xx

We do want updates,Cossy so please keep posting them. I hope that you are feeling a bit better today. 💐

I think this is how reasonable and civilised people behave- willing to enter into a debate and maybe be challenged by others - even though we may get frustrated by those whose views don't coinicde with our own!

But able to recognise that all that kind of stuff pales into insignificance when a friend on here faces a tough time.

I actively look out for your Henry updates and like everyone else, I'm willing him to be a little better every time.

Take care of yourself Cossy, Henry will soon want a cuddle with Grandma.

You soppy maregrin, enjoy your Sunday and much love to the family x

Ziplok Sun 23-Aug-26 17:04:42

Please do keep the updates coming Cossy 😊.
Sending you and your family my very best wishes 💐

LemonJam Sun 23-Aug-26 16:55:56

Cossy that's a lovely post. Enjoy your Sunday too- and best wishes to your love ones. Keep us updated on baby Henry's progress. 💐❤️

Sarnia Sun 23-Aug-26 16:44:58

I have found this too. I am an only child and both my cousins have died so GN is often a place I go to for some help and it's always been forthcoming. Thank you all.

AGAA4 Sun 23-Aug-26 15:43:09

My friend firmly believes that group love and prayers helps in healing so I hope all the love and prayers sent from grans wings it's way to Henry and he feels how much we all want him to get strong. Love to the mums and all the family too. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Whitewavemark2 Sun 23-Aug-26 14:47:21

We’re not a bad bunch are we! ❤️

Chocolatelovinggran Sun 23-Aug-26 14:09:29

Thank you for your kind words, Cossy.
If we're on GN, then most of us will have had our share of difficult times, so have some understanding of where you and your family are just now.
Best wishes to you all, especially your precious new grandson.

You too should feel proud Cossy for offering your own support to others going through a tough time.
Hoping Henry is gaining in strength every day 🙏🏾💐💐
