Thanks for the suggestions Maria. I'm studying at the moment and have an essay due in 2 weeks so that is helping to take my minds off things. I have a huge amount of reading to do. Luckily I enjoy it and find it does really help to get me through these waiting days. I'll definitely add your books to the list. I'm an avid reader so am always open to suggestions. I do enough reading for both of us in this house smile Thanks for your prayers and best wishes too. We need as many of these as we can get. I'm praying for the all clear again that's for sure.
