As most of you are aware there's a Just Giving appeal for one of our own -
Soop. I know many have contributed but wonder if others are just flipping past the 'Grade four rectal prolapse' thread.
There's less than £1500 till target. I wonder if some of you who have had to cancel meals and drinks out would consider contributing what you might have had to pay for those to Soop's fund? She has an awful condition and her situation is complex. Please Grans, think of contributing. sunshine

I agree with your every word Tilly this thread was inspired Aveline ???

TillyTrotter Tue 21-Dec-21 08:17:13

And ……. Thank you Aveline for starting this thread. I believe it was this last push which clinched the target ?
Also …… thank you to Mrsoop who replied to each and everyone of us when we donated. He is a ⭐️Star and soop must love him to bits ?

A wonderful Day for soop. A memorable one.
It is truly an amazing achievement that you will have your Operation soon - you must be able to feel the love of all your family and many friends wrapping around you.

You deserve this dear soop ?

I could be grumpy because I’m not sleeping instead I’ve a huge smile on my face. So pleased for soop.

Marydoll Tue 21-Dec-21 01:22:13

Knowing her internet reception can be intermittent, I have sent her a text.
However, I'm sure her family will have got there first.
This is the best news for ages.

Kalu Tue 21-Dec-21 01:16:56

Absolutely Marydoll. I am suddenly not so tired. ?

What a wonderful surprise for Soop when she wakens! ?
