In Ireland today is daffodil day. My family and I volunteer every year on daffodil day to raise awareness and funds for the Irish Cancer Society.

It truly lift 's your heart today to see so many people wear their colourful daffodils to show their support for people with cancer.

I went to the stand at my hospital and got some lovely notelets and a teddy! I hope lots of money was raised.

Yes. Got a lovely daffodil lapel pin on leaving Sligo hospital after 4th of 6 treatments with B&R.

Good luck Deeny! I had my 1st. app. nearly a month ago, dr. H on holiday, got no results "they go to your GP' the stand-in said. No results yet. They sent blood for immunophenotyping, no results yet. Good thing I'm not really worried, wait for call to see dr. H., who, by all accounts, takes time for his patients!

Daffodils are my favorite spring flower! April is daffodil month in Canada, sponsored by the Canadian Cancer Society. For a suggested donation of $2 we can pick up a cheery daffodil pin in many businesses. Every year I look forward to wearing them.
