Thanks Linda, I hope all those mentioned and others we know of, who need support and positive thoughts, have better health in the coming weeks of the old/new year.

Got a message from an ex neighbour to say her husband has been fighting leukaemia all year, doing ok at the mo but she said he had been through the mill, it was the acute myeloid type same as Daff's I think.

Emily Dickinson:
Before the ice is in the pools,
Before the skaters go,
Or any cheek at nightfall
Is tarnished by the snow,
Before the fields have finished,
Before the Christmas tree,
Wonder upon wonder
Will arrive to me!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Grace Noll Crowell:
Let Us Keep Christmas
Whatever else be lost among the years,
Let us keep Christmas still a shining thing;
Whatever doubts assail us, or what fears,
Let us hold close one day, remembering
It's poignant meaning for the hearts of men.
Let us get back our childlike faith again.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
W. C. Jones:
The joy of brightening other lives, bearing each others' burdens, easing other's loads and supplanting empty hearts and lives with generous gifts becomes for us the magic of Christmas.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Wishing you all the best Christmas and thinking of all those who are sad may a little light come into your lives

Linda :o) XxX

Sending healing thoughts to Lynn, Vicky, Liz[Diamond]. Rita, Daff, Keith[Hoff], Deanna, Joyce[Dutch]. Dizzi, Black Rose, YorkshireCaz, Mummo's Mother, Huia and all in need of our thoughts today.

Adding Keith in Fujairah's daughter who has had an accident, he is trying to get home to be with her.

Adding a member Helen's friend Craig, who needs our thoughts as he had a bleed on the brain last night. She asked that we send healing thoughts for him.

Purple Liz's "Nana" in Malta has Leukemia and she is concerned for her. Read she is OK and getting treatment that seems to be helping

Still thinking off Mummo's husband who has had a bad fall and injured his back and is in hospital being taken good care off. Don't forget to look after yourself too. Hoping he continues to improve
