Annus Horribilis has a happy ending.

Generally not one to post about personal matters,
But as title not been best year by a long way.
Father passed.
Father in law diagnosed with dementia.
Brother in law who I have always regarded as my little brother diagnosed kidney cancer.
Finally something to smile about,youngest son proposed to his long term partner in New York.
Lots of trials for the b family coming but some light on the horizon as well.
Just needed to have a sigh that hopefully our 3 bad's have come and gone and rest will be good.

Duncan. I thought you had been quiet lately. Great news regarding your Son and his partner.
I hope 2017 is a much better year for you and your Family but at least you ended up with some good news
Best wishes

Sad to see that 2016 hasn't been kind to you but fingers crossed that things have turned for the better for you and your family.

Best wishes

sorry to hear about your woes, i was diagnosed with kidney cancer this time last year had the kidney removed in feb, thankfully got the all clear, my sister was also diagnosed with the same thing, same kidney , the left one, she has just been discharged and hopefully she will get the same all clear as me, our other sister has been advised to get checked out , but shes waiting until after xmas, its a weird thing to be told you have cancer its like a massive slap in the face and i know im not the same person as i was,but im getting back slowly , and i hope your brother in law has a speedy recovery, i wish you all a merry xmas and like our family, cant wait to see the back of 2016 xx

A big hug. We too have had one of our worst ever years and with an ailing granny and our dog on her last legs, it's very likely the year will finish with yet more to cope with. I am so sorry it's been so horrid for you.
I will also be very glad to see the back of this year. It's been a shocker.

So pleased to see your good news and I truly hope there is a better year ahead for you and your family x

I'm so sorry to read your sad news. 2016 has been an absolutely awful year for us too. I try and stay positive, it's so hard though. I really can't wait to see the back of this year. Sometimes it feels like things will never get better. Reading your news about your son is lovely, wishing them many congratulations. I hope you and your family have a much better 2017.
