    That's just awful Tom, so sorry to hear that. Thoughts and prayers with your cousin and her family, including you of course.

    Sorry to hear that. Just keep on hoping that the prognosis is wrong and hope that the chemotherapy will be more effective than they think.
    My wife was given 6-12 months to live, 3 years ago. Good treatment has got her through so far.
    Hopefully it will be the same for your cousin.

    It's National Poetry Day tomorrow, here's a poem by Brian Bilston to start things off.

    LOVE IS LIKE A SKIN
    love is like a skin
    that protects you

    a warmth that spreads
    from your fingertips
    to your heart

    sorry – not love –
    glove, i meant glove

    And here's one from a poet whose name I forget. I read it once about forty years ago and it stuck.

    I've been writing this poem
    For two hours solid
    And I've only done three lines.

    Oh, four.

    Vin

    [Edit: Looked it up: Martin Hall - wrote a lot about supporting Wolverhampton Wanderers if I recall]

    [Further edit, just found this:
