That's lovely Nigel. An ongoing legacy of lifting each other born out of your experience with your daughter's illness and passing.

Pete - wonderful news re Tommy. I have been watching this thread.

Janie and Wendy - your mothers are in my thoughts too.

Up Spaw

Linn - What can I say?

May 2014 bring warmth and joy for all of you.

Yesterday I (miraculously) sang 5 or 6 songs non stop with nary a cough and only a little hoarseness by the end. Wheeeeee! Suddenly (and I think this is due to the lack of rain) I am in much less physical pain and stiffness.

Yesterday it was boiling hot in the flat due to the recent installation of cavity wall insulation. It was sunny if not warm outdoors. The combination of bright sun and indoor heat may have made the difference. I certainly feel happier too. Sunshine does that to me. Or maybe the anti-TNF injections are beginning to have effect.    I've only had two (monthly) doses so far. Early days.

Last night I felt well enough to share a bottle of bordeaux with TheSilentOne as we caught up on Dr. Who. Today - more sunshine. Life is good at the moment.
