[CLKD]

has decided not to have any more chemotherapy treatment as her cancer has spread 

[honeybun]

I saw the headline but have not read much about it.

Very sad news.

this is sad, I really like her 

[Katejo]

i have just read about this too. So sad for her. Also it was only found when she went to the doctor for a routine check up so i assume she didn't have any symptoms of the bowel cancer at the time.

So sad.  Hope she gets her wish for Christmas. 

My brother gets precancerous polyps removed annually from his colon. He had no idea either.

[Limpy]

I like her.
It's such a shame. 
Can understand her not wanting more chemotherapy.

[Joyce]

She looks very thin nowadays. Such a cruel disease.

[honeybun]

Just read her story. What a terrible thing to happen. Poor poor soul.

Poor lady. Such a shame.
Remember her as the mum in the Oxo ads.

[CLKD]

I will be reading her story in the Telegraph later. 

[CLKD]

Lynda spoke on BBC early today …… she seems to be in a 'good' place now having accepted that she will stop chemo ……..

[honeybun]

She looks so terribly ill.....poor poor soul, I think she is very brave.

She is terribly ill - she wants to 'see' C.mas  ……. but I think she's done the 'right' thing in giving her family the chance to say 'goodbye' - sometimes treatment is worse than the disease …….

[honeybun]

I know CLKD, but why be so public about the whole thing. Maybe quietly and with some privacy.

She's done the quiet in privacy bit and because colon cancer is not talked about in the way that breast cancer is, felt that by giving publicity to it more people would come forward with symptoms.  We don't 'do' bottoms in the UK do we  and in the States  ………..
