Kitchen Garden Forum

Well, the time has come to say farewell. I am now on the priority waiting list for our local hospice, the Sue Ryder Manorlands Hospice in Oakworth (of 'Railway Children' fame) and will like be there in two to three days' time. Many thanks for your friendship, practical help, compassion and all that goes with it .......

Not quite sure what words to say, wishing you some peace.

Dear Monika, you have been such a wonderful forum member, sharing stories from your childhood, right through to the present day.
These have always been so interesting to read, some moving, some funny, some helpful, some supportive, but most of all, everyone was so nicely written with total respect for the reader, and we can never thank you enough for that.
I personally am going to miss you hugely….but you will always be in my happiest memories, Monika…..xx

What OH said and sending a virtual hug in your direction.

Dear Monika
Please have my love and best wishes.
Stephen

shallotman. me also, words fail me.

I'm not good at this sort of thing as you know. I'll miss all your lovely posts and being able to compare notes with an almost local. You have a wonderful family that comes through in your posts, I'm sure you'll be greatly missed.

Monika most of it has been said above ,I will miss you ,please keep posting as long as possible

Dear Monika,

I am sorry to hear about the progress of your disease but so pleased to hear your final journey will be in the hands of the hospice staff who will control your symptoms, give you respect & good care & support your family. You will be sorely missed on the forum & I personally thank you for your patience & growing advice over the years. XX

Dear Monika, no useful words really, but I will miss your posts and generous & kind advice, humour and passion for growing. Thankyou for your contributions, this place won't be the same......sending love & hugs xx

Best wishes, Monika.
I'll also miss your kindness and friendship.

What a shame our dear Monika hasn’t managed to get back on the forum, so she could have seen just what she meant to us all….hopefully she would have already known this.
