If it's ok, my gran (well Tonys gran)has recently been told she has cancer. She is 84, but the most wonderful, caring and thoughtful person you could ever meet. She lost grandad a few years ago and threw herself into helping at mother and baby, her local church, and takes care of her very extended family ie children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. She is very spiritual and knowing and has always been there for each one of her family. When I was in hospital our car was playing up badly and kept reaking down. Our friend has looked at it but basically it needs scrapping .... our gran today offered to buy us a car .... she know she is on borrowed time and wants to do this even though we objected and said we'd manage (which we would). She wouldn't hear of it and has made arrangements for the money to be taken out next week. Needless to say i cant hold my emotions in very well and i cried, she held me and told me to pull mself together lol, she is such a wonderful person .... she told me not to be so silly and she couldn't take the money with her therefore it was the least she could do.

I needed to tell you all this because, well, i dont know why ... i guess i just wanted to tell you about how my gran is, what a beautiful person and not just because she has done this for us. i pray for her every day, she prays for us everyday, if you would it would be so lovely if she had some prayers from around the world .... she deserves this so much. thankyou for listening and i am grateful for prayers or positive thoughts for our wonderful gran. she truly is one of the most amazing people i have ever met. she has lived through so much heartache and difficulties.

thankyou again, Kerry/Jinnyann xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo((((((((((winnie))))))))))))))

(((jinnyann))) I'm glad we still have this forum for you to come and receive comfort and consolation in... there are many more members who read and do pray, than those who post. Know that she, and you, are being included! ...just need to ask for a prayer .....

Prayers being sent to all of you. She sounds like a most wonderful individual...full of love, hope, compassion and caring. Know that she is doing this from her heart...her soul....because you and Tony matter.

I know how hard this must be for you...my mother died of cancer and gave everything she ever had to her friends and family.

May light always shine on you both.
