hi flo thanks for kind reply just found the internet too hope you get this reply bit of a luddite at 54
It is great to hear a positive outcome. Fantastic that you got to walk your daughter down the aisle.
I lost my mother to lung cancer last November, yesterday was a hard day for me being the first Mothers Day. On Friday I was out selling daffodils all day, first time I had ever done any street collection for charity. I would normally donate. I am so glad I done it. I hope you stay healthy and happy

Hi RayMy1954,
Great to hear your story. Pancreatic cancer can be very aggressive and it must have been very difficult for you and your family to get such a depressing diagnosis and prognosis. And yet here you are four years later, walking your daughter down the aisle - congratulations!!
Regards,
Flo.
