Sorry I didn't really read your post - just had to give support

A few weeks ago I was really down because my hubby had to have a second op for skin cancer. The first - so called minor surgery - last December - didn't work

We then had to have more surgery .. Amazing skin grafts etc..

But it is still bothering him, next checkup 10 Oct

I couldn't bear to lose him but I have to stay positive..

Going on a cruise on the Oriana at Xmas - all saved BY NO SMOKING - I HAVE PUT MY CIGGIE MONEY AWAY EVERY WEEK FOR NEARLY A YEAR

The thing I have always said is that it is easy being the "victim" - watching a loved one is so far worse............
