Hello Boomers, hope you are all well….it’s been a while. I have some news to share with you. A couple of months after my hubby’s funeral last year I was diagnosed with cancer after a CT scan and an MRI. Doctor told me my cancer is stage 3 and inoperable due to its proximity to other organs and due to my medical history and current health issues they are unable to offer me chemotherapy. I can’t have radiotherapy to treat the tumour but can have it to treat the symptoms eg pain (palliative care). Being told the diagnosis and limited treatment options so soon after losing hubby sent me to a dark place for a time but I have to accept that it’s happened and can’t be changed. As always, my amazing kids have got my back. Mary

Oh, Mary, I'm so sorry, especially after everything you've been through already. I'm glad you've got your family around you.
I think I'm quite ready for another adventure.

Ms Mary, it is SO good to hear from you! I'm sure you have not been in a good place dealing with all this, but we sure have wondered how your were doing and hoping for the best. You are blessed with some wonderful children, so let them keep you cared for and loved. Many virtual hugs.
It's spring. My life is weeds.

My Dear Mary, I have been thinking of you lately as well and hoping all was well with you. It has to be a great comfort having your kids helping you when you need them most. Sending love and prayers to a courageous lady and friend that GB made possible for me to get to know and care about.  Love and Hugs My friend, Gerry
