Not to be a bummer.  Dropping by to thanks. I've enjoyed this site immensely the help and camaraderie is the best.

I've been inactive of late. Simply because I am now bedridden with stage 4 stomach cancer. No timeline but is extremely aggressive and can't be treated. I likely won't see the New Year. I post this now as might not have the strength for later.

I am NOT depressed, despondent or otherwise, I am at peace surrounded by family & friends. Goodbye my C.C. friends.
And more, much more than this, I did it my way

So sorry to read this news. I nearly posted "Anyone heard from Abers and / or  Spinner recently " yesterday and thought better of it as you never know what is happening with people. Wishing you peace / comfort surrounded by your loved ones. It`s been a pleasure virtually knowing you,

It is good to hear, you are not depressed, and surrounded by family and friends. Like Jinky and Howard, I too wish you peace and comfort.

ABERS

So sorry to hear your news Spinner and you are taking it with fortitude  surrounded by family and friends.

A strange coincidence, but my reasons for absence are exactly  the same. I was diagnosed with terminal stomach cancer five weeks ago . My family are a godsend and like you things are not as frightening  as I thought they would be.

God bless.

David Blandford

my best wishes go to both you, you are in our thoughts. many thanks for all the help and advice you have both given me since I joined the site.
still trying to paint with light!!

Sorry to hear that Abers. Perhaps you and Spin could set up a branch of Camera Craniums in Heaven then, when the rest of us have, 'shuffle off this mortal coil', we could join you there.  8)

God bless you as well.  :tup:

How awful, to have to say goodbye to two old friends at the same time.

Thank God for your daughters and grand children. I am sure, together you will be able to make the best of the time left.

All the best. It was great to have met you, and thank you for your advice.
