I wish that my friend RB will live long enough to see Christmas, he SO BADLY wants to share one last xmas with his family before the cancer takes him.
Sorry, you probably meant something happpy. But I just lost a dear friend, and another 2 are not expected to see xmas, so I just cant think happy thoughts right now. Sorry. If I think of some I;ll come back and post them.

Thank you.
But no chance I dont think to be honest, from I was told today. He's 36 and has very advanced osophagus cancer and in the liver and glands (only found out last week why he had a persistent sore throat and belly ache).
The worst part is, his mother has the same, (hereditary gene they only found out about a couple of months ago) - they both went to the hospice yesterday "to meet the staff while they are well enough to say Hi" - isnt there summat about lightning not striking in the same home twice at the same time?
I shall see them wednesday.

I wish for christmas, a sense of comfort and peace for all those here on Flirtbox who have already lost loved ones and are going to miss sharing it with them.

Freda, why not help out at your local soup kitchen? Thats what I've done in the past a couple of times, and would do this year if it werent for my kids first xmas without their nan, and as stated above, my 'other half' might not have his mum and/or brother around.
I dont feel "christmassy" at all. Confused

How would I find out about helping in a soup kitchen RG? I hate christmas and am not doing it this year. I would rather feel I'm helping to make someone else's just that bit better.


The Salvation Army usually do Christmas dinner for the homeless and those who will be alone at Christmas, well i know ours does cause i've helped out a few times with the family!!!

And for my own wish i wish i could spend it with my parents who are thousands of miles away in Dubai. It will be the first Christmas day i haven't spent with them in 40 years Sad
But my sister and her husband will be spending the day with me so that ain't too bad Very Happy

Thats sad Sad

Hope he makes it Alice


Rupert passed away today, so he didnt make it to christmas, but he did make it to his 38th birthday a few days ago, albeit not awake to actually see it.

Sorry, not quite intended for this thread, but just an update on that post, and my heartfelt thanks to all who have messaged kind thoughts.
