Hi Pam

We have been intending for ages to send you a message........have been following your blog and are so glad to hear that you are approaching a bit more normality. You are a real inspiration - but then you always were!

We think of you often and hope spring heralds a new phase in your journey to recovery.

Hi Pam

We're still with you. Have had a few hectic weeks - crashing PC and clarinet needing to be repaired, so more trips north than anticipated. Have still been following the blogs. Good luck with the chemo.

Hi Pam & Pete,
We also went to see Edward Scissorhands last Saturday and thoroughly enjoyed it, especially the bit with the houses - oh and THAT woman in the house on the left hand side - perfectly cast!

Dear Pam,
Woops, still haven't quite got the hang of this, just forgot to fill in my name in the box and the blog controller deleted my message, so here goes again!

Apologies if this sends twice. I wrote it once and it disappeared! Another milestone reached, Pam. Glad the radiotherapy's finished. Not sure I should publish this on such a public site, but had an e-mail from Dave L who sends you his best wishes and in his usual inimitible style, asked "Is she still married to the brilcream miner?"!!

Hi Pam - we hope that when you read this you will have completed the radiotherapy and that the machines behaved themselves!
We are pleased to hear that the rash has improved and hope that the toothache is also on the mend.

Dear Pam,
Just got back from a few days in Cornwall, so have been in a computer free zone! I've just caught up with reading your last two installments and read about THE RASH. Not sure about being in the medical text book, should think you felt like throwing a few, I certainly did on your behalf! Hope the rash is making its way back wherever more…

A rash? How dull for you...

I have nothing as interesting to report (thankfully), only that I arrived back in Houston from a stint in London to find the weather cool, skies blue and full of the 'nearly summer' season that is now upon us here in the south of Americaland.
