My daughters Facebook status
My 20 year daughter posted this as her Facebook stays yesterday whilst I was having my 5th chemo, thought I would share it with you:
" Watching my mum fight cancer has shown me how strong she really is, all kids say that there mum is strong, but mine? Mine is the definition of strength, seeing her hurt, cry, in pain, ache, and what this treatment does to her not any woman could do it, but she is and I honestly have never been so proud of anyone or anything. experiencing this with her has changed my whole perspective on life. Live for the moment, don't sweat the small stuff, appreciate what you have and enjoy what's around you. I love you, only one more of these horrible chemos to go! ? "

This one was definitely my pleasure, Penny! ;)
I think everything about spammers is strange, but that might be just me! :)
(nice to 'see' you Fran! )
- Thanks Di Xx
I thought it was strange .
Hi all, just to let you know I deleted themost recent 'facebook status' comment, as it was one of several spam comments made by that user. Sorry for the nuisance, user has been blocked.

Penny that is wonderful. i don't have daughters (a step daughter who is a great support)
i have 3 son's from my first marriage and the eldest was always a mummies sook when i told him i had cancer he was shocked but said he felt i was a very strong person and would beat it. the youngest had the attitude that i was a tough ol girl and cancer wasnt gonna stop me. mmmmmm
the middle boy usually the quietest and distant one , broke down hugged me and said he would be with me through it all, (and he was) he cried with me , saw me at my worst and helped my husband his step dad to stay strong. when i finally finished my treatment 12 months after i told him he cried and said he was so scared he would loose me, almost did,
it is strange how they react but i know all my boys love me but handled this in their own ways. we are closer now.
