Thanks all, she is such a little lady, but always used to be so cuddly so it must have been hard to see her losing weight.

I just wish she could speak English so we could phone her, it was always such a job for my lad to ring and thank her for his Christmas money she used to send (English cash in with a card, sometimes the card never arrived, we never knew if it had been lost or she hadn't sent one and couldn't ask her) We can only speak with her if the daughter, son's aunt is at home to translate and we then have a threeway conversation which gets a bit stilted. Doesn't stop her loving my son tho, bless her.

Thanks Persey, I hope she can hang on for a while longer, and that all the family here get over to see her, including my lad.

Liz today is the first time I have seen this thread. ( How did I miss it)? It must be difficult to find out how she is keeping. I will keep her and her family in my thoughts xx

Thanks Carole, don't worry that you missed the thread. Although my son's uncle hasn't confirmed it, I am pretty sure she has chronic leukaemia rather than acute so her illness can be managed and she could live for a while yet.
My son's dad is useless at staying in contact with him but his stepmother does make contact occasionally, even tho son doesn't much like her, she stopped his dad being in touch when he was in his early teens and son won't forgive her for that, now she seems to be trying to keep contact but she is nosey with it, she is a control freak and the family in Malta seem worried about upsetting her, or used to hence my son not having his photo on view till 2006/7. It was great to go round and see his picture out with all the others at last, after 24years!
