today must be a very sad day for you G,MAN Frown
losing somebody so close must be very very hard to deal with.
my dad was diagnosed with pancreas cancer 16 months ago, after having most of it removed in a 7 hour op he pulled through ok and was out of hospital 2 weeks later.
anyway now he,s quality of life is gone and he feels very ill most of the time, adding to the fact that after the op for pancreas cancer they only give you about 4 to 5 years survival, so he gets very down sometimes.
anyway G,MAN my thoughts are with you today Nod Yes Wink

Eek that,s crazy G,MAN, it must of come as a massive shock to everyone concerned...very sad indeed, i think cancer has affected most families at some time or another Nod Yes
i tell you when my little lad was 3 weeks he had a small op at manchester pendlebury hospital as it was called a few years back, and i seen children in their with lukemia and i felt so lucky but at the same time i felt sick inside that children should have to endure such pain and suffering, my eyes welled up and i shed a few quiet tears that night at my lads bedside thinking of all the children suffering all over the world with this terrible disease Frown

We actually had 2 docs out lav,the first one said she'll be ok,just giver calpol,about 2 hours went by,we tried to wake her,no chance,so we got another doctor out,he knew what to do,gave her 2 injections and got an ambulance straight away..he saved her life..oh and pendlebury hospital were great,they gave us a small apartment on the hospital grounds so we could be close to her,excellent hospital...
