So sorry guys! I hardly ever go on Mudcat anymore and there wasn't really anything to report so I didn't bother. Now there is. Alicia has just left hospital with the all clear (so far). Obviously she's not completely out of the woods yet but It's all very positive and hopeful. I think it is a little earlier than was first said as well, so that's got to be good. She's not back at school yet but will be returning after the Easter holidays.
The girls have finally managed to collect almost all of the money that was pledged to them for their sponsored silence and have handed it in to school. School will then write out a cheque to the charity of Alicia's choice. When I hear what the total was I will let you know and also tell you what charity it will be going to. Thanks so much to those who sent money to swell the fund.
I'm sure all the thoughts, prayers and wishes and general good energy being sent by Mudcatters must have helped this happy outcome. Don't stop yet!
Thanks again guys and sorry I was silent for so long.

Love Lynne
