On Sunday 28th June my husband lost his fight with cancer.

It will be some time before I will be back on here.

I hope you have all kept safe and all my friends will still be here.

I haven't been on DA very much lately due to the fact on Christmas Eve my husband Paul :iconuk-snapshots:  was told he had terminal lung cancer and lesions on his spine. The doctor told him he only has months to live.
My days are taken up looking after him. He now has a hospital bed downstairs and has lost the use of his legs. The past few days he has slept a lot but when he is awake he is still quite alert. 
I am totally exhausted therefore I don't spend a lot of time on here so I won't be thanking faves or messages etc.
I don't know which will end first... his life or this virus.
I watched the film Contagion yesterday. It was made 9 years ago and it's as if this film has come true!
This is our World War 3 people but this time we can't see the enemy.

I hope you all stay safe and stay in and isolate.
:fingerscrossed: we're all together again when this is all over :heart:

2 old men

Two Old Guys, one 80 and one 87, were sitting on a Park Bench one morning.
The 87-year-old had just finished his morning Jog and wasn't even Short of Breath.
The 80-year-old was amazed at the guy's Stamina and asked him what he did to have so much Energy..???
The 87-year-old said, "Well, I eat Rye Bread every day. It keeps your Energy level high and you'll have great Stamina with the Ladies."
So, on the way home the 80-year-old stopped at the Bakery.
As he was looking around, the Saleslady asked if he needed any help.
He said, "Do you have any Rye Bread"..???
She said, "Yes, there's a Whole Shelf of it, over there. Would you like some"..??
He said, "I want Five Loaves."
She said, "Ohh, My Goodness, Five Loaves you say..! By the time you get to the 3rd Loaf, it'll be Very Hard."
The Old Timer replied,
"I can't believe, everybody knows about this Shit but me".. 😂

Sister Barbara

1 min read
Sitting by the window of her convent, Sister Barbara opened a letter from home one evening.
Inside the letter was a $100 bill her parents had sent. Sister Barbara smiled at the gesture.
As she read the letter by the window, she noticed shabbily dressed stranger leaning against the lamp post below. Quickly, she wrote, "Don't despair - Sister Barbara," on a piece of paper, wrapped the $100 bill in it, got the man's attention and tossed it out the window to him.
The stranger picked it up, and with a puzzled expression and a tip of his hat, went off down the street.
The next day, Sister Barbara was told that a man was at her door, insisting on seeing her.
She went down, and found the stranger waiting. Without a word, he handed her a huge wad of $100 bills.
"What's this?" she asked.
"That's the $8,000 you have coming Sister," he replied. "Don't Despair paid 80-to-1."

R.I.P Clive

It is with a very heavy heart that I have to tell you that Clive :icontaramara: passed away on Saturday the 1st of February. He was diagnosed with stomach cancer last year but sadly by the time they found it, it was too late to cure him.
He will be sadly missed by me and some of us older ones on here. He was one of my first friends on here along with :icondavincipoppalag: and our friend Lynne. They were all very supportive of me when I first started doing my photography.  We all shared in my opinion a lovely friendship. Clive spent less and less time on here and Lynne also. I've kept in touch with both of them off DA and she shares my sadness.
It was Clive's journals that got me into posting jokes on here. He really had some good ones. It was his opinion it is better to put a smile on someone's face than cause them sadness.
So in his honour I've found one of his old jokes to share with you...

A man walked out to the street and caught a taxi just going by. He got into the taxi and the cabbie said, "Perfect timing. You're just like Brian"
Passenger: "Who?"

Cabbie: "Brian Sullivan. He's a man who did everything right all the time. Like my coming along when you needed a cab, things happen like that to Brian every single time."

Passenger: "There are always a few clouds over everybody."

Cabbie: "Not Brian Sullivan. He was a terrific athlete. He could have won the Grand Slam at tennis. 
He could golf with the pros. He sang like an opera baritone and danced like a Broadway star and you should have heard him play the piano. He was an amazing guy."
Passenger: "Sounds like he was something really special."

Cabbie: "There's more. He had a memory like a computer. He remembered everybody's birthday.
He knew all about wine, which foods to order and which fork to eat them with.He could fix anything. Not like me. I change a fuse and the whole street blacks out. But Brian Sullivan, he could do everything right."
Passenger: "Wow. Some guy then."

Cabbie: "He always knew the quickest way to go in traffic and avoid traffic jams.
Not like me, I always seem to get stuck in them. But Brian, he never made a mistake and he really knew how to treat a woman and make her feel good.He would never answer her back even if she was in the wrong; and his clothing was always immaculate, shoes polished too. He was the perfect man! He never made a mistake. No one could ever measure up to Brian Sullivan."
Passenger: "An amazing fellow. How did you meet him?"


Cabbie: "Well, I never actually met Brian. He died. I'm married to his bloody widow."
  

THANKS FOR ALL THE LAUGHS CLIVE. I bet you even have them singing the Welsh anthem in heaven.:blowkiss: :blowkiss: :blowkiss:
