Hello All,
I've been very quiet over the last year but I've read all of your emails with
great interest, hope, joy and sorrow.
Cherrie, this is a wonderful email and I'm so pleased for you and your loved
ones. As you say, we do get strength from each other through this contact ...
Thanks again, Bruce, for setting it up for us!
Among other things, of course, two have really stayed in my mind from when we
had our fun night at Gawler's. One was your brief but beautiful dancing and
the other was Bec throwing her wig in the air.
I wish everyone all that they wish for themselves for 2010.
Sincerley, Lorraine.

Hello everyone..
I have just celebrated to the max the 21st birthday of my dear daughter.
This time last year my lawyer, at my urgent request, had come to my home
even though they were closed for the festive season, because my prognosis was
grim - metastisised breast cancer in the liver - splotches on all the bones and
a large tumour in the bone in the upper arm and throughout the upper part of
the bone in the right leg. I couldn't write and I needed crutches to walk.
Rebecca I just loved hearing your wonderful news before christmas and I love
your attitude. My oncologist also spookily forewarned "..... until you are
back." Lindy great to hear that the Gawler practices have staved off side
effects and supported recovery. I believe they are working for me too.
However your emails have come at a good time for me coz they encourage me to
stick to the diet and the meditating and the exercise and the positivity just
when I am most challenged. I am well - in remission. The cancer indicators and
liver functions results have shown normal now for the six months since the
last chemotherapy treatment. in July.
There's stuff to deal to in the bones but no scary pain to confirm this. i
have postponed a CT scan three times now.
When I told my acupunturist friend how difficult I was finding Christmas - ie
to stick to the good food habits I have practised for almost a year now - she
simply said you need to stock up your fridge with treats! She provided me with
some of those lovely allowable treats that come at the end of all our healthy
cookbooks! It was just great.
Today I was looking at our Gawler photo - it has been a privilege to share
with you and accompany you thro the network over the past year. I feel
accompanied as I'm sure we all do - in our struggles, in our sad losses and yes
in our conquests.
All the best for 2010
Warm regards
Cherrie
