Dear Jennifer, I am deeply sorry about this six mont5h news. . all i can say is that i am thinking of you so much, and hope that yout time together is wonderful and precious and not too sad. my own mother who died of the same illness actually perked up immediately she was told that she had about three months to live. it gave her something to fight for she said. i discovered an icecream she loved--vienetta chocolate, nothng grander, but the chocolate in it gave her more energy. sorry about no caps by the way but my specs handle has broken and im rtyping with one hand. she lived six months longer and died very peacefully while i had slipped home to feed the dog. i was so saddened that i wasnt at her bedside but grateful at the way she was saved too much suffering. every good wish to you and [paul. prayers and thoughts are with you. i do believe that theyhelp. get on one of these prayer lists and you will be amazedt the feeling of support you get. ishbel | ||||

Jennifer I too am sorry to hear this. In my head I always tell myself that doctors can't actually make this prediction and that each of us have to just live each day as best and as happily as we can for who knows when that bus will come along. Six months is a long time and a short time. Make the best of each day and treasure little things and little happenings together. | ||||

Jennifer You probably don't want to hear from me right now, as I am proof that husbands don't always make it. (My husband, also a Paul, passed away in December after a 10 month fight against tongue cancer. I'm 30, he was 34) However, if you do want to talk, either now or later, I'll be around. with love spouse | ||||

hi, thanks to all of you. feeling more positive now. Paul has just had 2 days in hospital because of his swollen tongue, they think the tumour is blocking his lymph glands, apparently its very aggressive, just have to hope the chemo does some good,starts on 15th, the stupid thing is that he feels really well at the moment, fingers and everything else crossed that this treatment works, he's had everything else.

Jennifer, I don't know what I would do if I were you. I really don't. How is Paul doing? O Jennifer I am so sorry to hear this. If there is anything at all I can do, Please tell me. Vicki | |||

Dear Jennifer, just remember that the Docs are not always 100% right all the time; what is so hard is to see someone you love in constant pain; you will both be in my thoughts and prayers; we are all here for you. Garance | ||||
