Hello all,

I find it really poignant that the next "super duper" MacMillan Quiz is on it's way.

My dear friend was diagnosed with breast cancer back in July 2011.

She beat ovarian cancer 11 years ago.

She was told 6 months, but did not pay any attention.

This time it beat her. . .but not without a fight.

She signed her self out of the local Hospice the 17Th December against all medical advice.

They said she would not last the week.

My bestest pal passed on last night, in peace with her family and friends.

I feel privileged to be with her until her end.

A life at 51 cut too short.

Please support ANY Cancer charity.

Now away to celebrate my soul mate.

Sorry to hear of your loss, Pastille. At least your friend is now at peace and I am sure you will have some lovely memories to recall.

We've reached a milestone. We've now raised over £3000 for Macmillan Cancer support since I started selling my quizzess online last summer. http://www.justgiving.com/user/28094196

Thank you so much to everyone who has donated.
