Hi every one,

Tania has made contact. She has asked me to let you all know she will be away from TCS or 6-8 weeks. I'm sure she won't mind me letting you all know that she has just found out her dad has lung cancer. She will be flying out to him tonight to stay with him and look after him. I am so upset for her. She said she will be popping in from time to time to say hello.

I would like to send my prayers and well wishes for her dad.

She has a friend looking after her furbabies for her.

Love you lot's Tania, I hope everything turns out okay and that you find the strength you need in the upcoming months.

You will be very much missed my mate!

Love and Hugs

Tania, you will be in my thoughts over the next few weeks. That is the hardest news to bear. I went with my parents for the first consulation with the Doctors when Mom was diagnoses with breast cancer. That was one of the most difficult hours of my life. It's tough to deal with all the technical terms, the emotions, and the tough decisions that the whole family has to make.

Tania, if you need to chat with someone, I am here for you. Just PM or email me. (((((Hugs)))))

(p.s. Did the kittens go back to the vet or another foster mum?)

Oh I am so sorry to hear about this!!!! My prayers are going up for Tania and her father. This is so very sad. I wish there was something I could do or say to make her feel better, but I know I can't.


Tania, if you read this....you are in my thoughts and prayers, as is your father. If you get a chance, pop in and let us know how he is, and how you are holding up. We are here for you, my friend, if you need to talk!!!!!

****HUGS****

Tania - My prayers are with you and your Dad. I'm sort of "supervising" my Mom's care and treatment for metastatic breast cancer - fortunately my Dad is still around to do the day to day stuff, and I have a brother and sister to help. However, it is emotionally draining. I found a couple of support groups for caregivers, and they are a god send. I sometimes just need to get advice on what to do and say. Of course TCS is a really good support group as well.

And with my Mom - she was diagnosed two years ago, and most of us thought she would have 6 months to a year tops. Well, it's two years later, and we're planning Mom and Dad's 50th wedding anniversary party.

Thankyou all so very, very much for all your thoughts and prayers. You are all such wonderful people and I couldn't ask for better mates!!


And Debby mate, don't fret about merging the threads! Nothing any of you could do would ever make me disappear like that! I'm so sorry for making you all worry!!
