When the weather has been good in the garden and there's plenty of flowers there to enjoy, especially the roses and the philadelphus and their lovely fragrances. thank you for your kind comments and support. Wishing you a lovely weekend.

ReplyDeleteThank you Kezzie. I trust you're having a well-deserved break from school work during these Summer days. I'll catch up with your news soon.
DeleteDear Linda sending all my love and prayers for you. I love the roses.
ReplyDeleteThank you Molly. I'm thinking of you and lifting you up in prayer also.
DeleteOh Linda, I am so very glad to hear from you and to know that all is as well as it can be right now. This morning, you popped into my mind and since then I have been waiting for a moment to get to my computer and send you an e-mail, and there, a post with news from you has popped up! I wonder if I somehow knew, or you did! I have been sending good thoughts, but today, I just felt that I needed to get in touch with you! I can go to bed tonight knowing that we have been in touch and that you are doing alright. I will of course continue to send good thoughts and to think of you. Until you are able to write again take care and know that we are here! Very gentle so you don't get squished hugs! xx
ReplyDeleteLovely to hear from you Amy. Your kind words and thoughtfulness cheer me. Looking forward to joining Five on Friday folk later on when I have more to contribute.
DeleteGlad things are coming along for you and that you could share with us. Praying right now for continued healing before your next surgery and that all will go well after. Glad you have a lovely garden to enjoy.
ReplyDeleteThank you Ellen for your prayers. I ask especially that I don't have to have more surgery after that and can get on with healing for radiotherapy treatment. Have a lovely week.
DeleteThank you for letting us know how you're doing Linda. I popped in today to see if you'd posted and have been thinking of you. What beautiful roses! Time in your lovely peaceful looking garden is just what you need I imagine. So glad to hear you are recovering from the first op. I will be thinking of you and sending good thoughts for continued strength and relief as you face the next part of your treatment journey. I'm sure your family are looking after you and holding your hand when needed. Sending love. Xx
ReplyDeleteThank you Jan. It's always good to hear from you. I hope all is going well with you and your family. Yes, my family have been there for me all the way. My nurse/health visitor daughter has been a great support in taking time off work to come with me to hospital appointments and during surgery and I'm blessed to have Mr. P. here cooking some tasty meals.
DeleteP.S. I should say our daughter used holiday leave to be with me at the hospital, not always easy to do when the NHS is under pressure with staffing levels.
Deleteje suis très contente de voir que tout se déroule bien
ReplyDeletec'est une belle saison pour récupérer
il ne faut pas hésiter à prendre beaucoup de repos
à très bientôt
toute ma tendresse

ReplyDeleteThank you Sandra. Thinking of you too. Praying a state of calm will prevail in the aftermath of these recent terrible incidents - they are all so complex to deal with - so also praying for the leaders of our countries and security services.
DeleteHow good to hear you are doing well, you have been in my thoughts. I'm glad you are gradually feeling better, I'm sure those beautiful roses help. Here's to all going well for your second surgery. You take good care of you now. xxxxxx
ReplyDeleteThank you Dina. Sorry I haven't been around to read and comment on your news on your blogs. Hopefully things will improve and I can do more writing and blogging by the autumn. Meanwhile, thinking of you and wishing you and your family well.
DeleteDearest Linda, It's been so long since I've saI'd hello, I'm sorry to hear about your surgery and that you have another one still. I have said a prayer for you and I hope that you heal quickly. You have a gorgeous garden, I love the bee photo! Much love to you, Tammy
ReplyDeleteHello Tammy. I'm pleased to hear from you. Thank you for your prayers and kind comments. It's a lovely time to be out in the garden appreciating the flowers and noticing the many bees that are attracted to them. Hope you and your family are well.
DeleteThank you everyone for stopping by and leaving your kind messages. I'm touched and appreciate the friendship we have through blogging.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear you are doing well but I'm sorry to hear it sounds like you've got a long way to go yet. Thoughts and prayers with you!
ReplyDeleteYes it's a disappointing set back, shock and disappointment for myself and the family from results of the surgery biopsies, but was told the cancer hasn't spread to the lymph glands. I'm coping and I just have to stay positive. Others are far worse off than me. Thank you for your thoughts and prayers.
DeleteGreat to hear you are recovering Linda! Faith is a good companion for such times. Your roses are so gorgeours and they must have a great smell.
ReplyDeleteKeep on praying for you.
Thank you Sandra for your kind comment and for your prayers.
DeleteSo good to see you here. Your garden flowers are just gorgeous. I wish you all good things in the adventure of healing, more surgery, and more healing. Sending hugs!!! Marilyn
ReplyDeleteThank you Marilyn. An 'adventure' I could do without for myself and family, but thinking of those much worse off than me, especially ill young children and adults
Deleteperhaps with young families going through this.
Sending my love to you and wishing you, your husband and family well.
DeleteI'm so glad to hear that your recovery is going well, your garden is such a lovely place to relax in and we've even got the weather for it today. I'm sorry that you're having to undergo surgery again but it will all be for the best, I'm sure. Take care, sending lots of hugs xx
ReplyDeleteThanks Jo. I agree with you that all the treatment will be for the best. I've every confidence in the medical teams that look after us so well. I hope you and your family are enjoying these days of good weather.
