Goodbye
Well cruise friends, I'm afraid Ray's Ramblings will be no more, and this will be my last post on this forum.
I told you you in my last post that Mr C had raised his head again, and I had to go into battle again. Well I saw my Oncologist on the 12th August who gave me the news that they had now discovered Mr C' s new home was in my lungs, and his outpost was my brain and bones.
The prognosis was not a lot better, giving me months not years to live.
So, It was time to cancel the two cruises we had booked as cruising is no more for us.
So as in my last post post, I do not want you pity, but I need your positive thoughts and prayers.
And next time you sail from Southampton, please raise a glass and remember me.
So until we all meet in that great cruise ship in the sky
Bye bye

Re: Goodbye
Lifes a bitch sometimes Ray.
Try and get on here when you can for the Friday 'Mornin All' to hopefully raise a smile in these difficult times.
All the best to you both.

Ray,
Keep calm and cruise on - and hang on to all those wonderful cruising memories.
Meanwhile, I will do as you have asked and will most definitely raise a glass to you in the near future.
Very best wishes.
