Today, I have spent with my dear little lady friend, marking her 100th Birthday!!!!!!!!!! I have been visiting her weekly, for 7 years. She hasn't got PMR/GCA, or ARTHRITIS. SHE HAS HAD MANY FALLS IN THE PAST, AND NEVER BROKEN A BONE. HOWEVER, I THINK THAT MIGHT JUST BE DOWN TO THE PRUNES WITH HER DAILY PORRIDGE? She was thrilled with her card from the Queen and a letter from Dept Works and Pensions, Amber Rudd. Family and friends in/out all day. Photos in local papers,incl. yours truly, sporting a very noticeable steroid face and hamster cheeks. I don't have any photos.We had a fish and chips lunch with a little sherry, the latter for her.When I was leaving at 6pm, she assured me she had a made-up bed, in the spare room, so I could stay overnight. Tomorrow, she goes to her day centre, where she will have another party.A great lady, who, apart from a bit of memory loss, will go onto 101. Bless you Marjorie. xx
