Your blog has helped inspire me to have canal viewing based holiday in the UK right now. We also spent a week in Spain around the Malaga area, couldn't make Mojacar in the time frame. The weather was just the right temperature and sunny, so I am so glad that you managed one last trip there, I am sure it lifted your spirits.

I never have been able to but I am going to damn well try everything I can to do so.<br /><br />You and Elaine are both a total inspiration to all. Both of you are so brave and forthright. I do so wish we had met properly instead of an odd wave here and there. I have followed your blog since day one and still somehow you have the energy to post yet another one.<br /><br />I don't think I have ever met a person as strong as you and you both have inspired me not to let anything get in the way of a life. A life that none of us know how long will last.<br /><br />All my love...

I can totally understand how much energy writing a blog must be, it's challenging when you're fit and healthy! Well done for keeping it up for so long, and thinking about your readers. Now's the time to focus on YOU and making the most of every day and every gratitude for as long as you have. Thank you for getting in touch all those years ago, Barry and I have loved sharing your journeys from Australia to UK, to Spain, and back to UK. The ups and the downs. And it's been a pleasure to know you and Elaine.

So pleased you made it to mojacar the Blessed and so sorry you were feeling so ill. I hope all your wonderful memories support you at this time. I know you are held in high esteem by so Many Many people as was Elaine when she was on this same journey. It seems so ironic and doubly cruel for you to follow the same path. But you are facing this time in your life as you have always done. With an incredible spirit. That will live on. Fondest love. KK.
