Sad news for me today... #237497 02/04/2008 10:25 PM Joined: Jul 2006 Posts: 879 Birmingham UK Brummie OP 3/4 Throttle OP Brummie 3/4 Throttle Joined: Jul 2006 Posts: 879 Birmingham UK My dear old mom died this afternoon. She was 87 and had the onset of dementia and Alzheimers. She was diagnosed a couple of weeks ago with cancer of the Oesophagus but she was too frail for them to operate on. She'll be sorely missed. If you do it today you MIGHT regret it. If you CAN'T do it tomorrow you WILL regret it.
