A thread in memory of biscuitsandbandages who tragically lost her battle with leukaemia on Thursday 27th November

[Mumsfret]

Biscuits gathered so many supporters and followers as she went through the trauma of diagnosis and bravely endured attempts at a cure. Her Mumsnet army can post their condolences here. It may serve as a comfort to her family to know how much she was admired and loved.

On Biscuits' last thread, Kundry kindly posted a link to a donation page set up in her memory, for those who wish to respect her request to donate to multiple causes close to her heart, rather than send flowers. Oxfam (training doctors and midwives in the 3rd World), a book reading prize for the school her DSs attend, and Leukemia and Lymphoma research to help banish this disease from future generations. The link is:here

RIP Biscuits

Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un She seemed like an amazingly strong woman. Very moving following her journey.

[mummylin2495]

What a very moving post from Mr biscuits. Sending you light and love for you and your crumbs for the future.

[SunflowerSmile]

Still thinking of you Mr Biscuits and those little children of yours. Your wife was very loved and touched the hearts of many.

[Weebirdie]

I thought of Biscuits yesterday, just out of the blue.

I wish I had known her away from MN.

[Sunbeam18]

I think of her so often too. She was an inspiration.

I still think of you often Biscuits and can't believe that three months have passed. I have just read the post by your husband with tears in my eyes. I hadn't realised that you were also a doctor. That only adds to your bravery, as you would have had insight into the enormity of your illness and the challenges that lay ahead.

Rest in peace dear Biscuits.

Sending love to you Mr Biscuits and to the three crumbs .

yesterday must have been hard for you all, harder than I can imagine

words dont seem like much, but please accept my heartfelt good wishes to your family

I took my dd to the doctor surgery today and on the notice board was a very beautiful photo of our doctor holding her baby and the very sad announcement of her passing.

I instantly recognised the photo as our Biscuits from the just giving page set up in her memory. I can't believe I 'knew' her but didn't realise.

I've lurked from the very beginning and been inspired by her strength and positivity. She was regularly in my thoughts. I'm not surprised that her colleagues and patients have donated to her page, she was a wonderful doctor.

[SunflowerSmile]

What a small world AndiRee. Amazing to think she is part of your community.

I'm sure I wasn't the only one to receive an update from Justgiving recently - the aim of biscuits friends was to raise £500, and the final total was just over £5000. Brilliant.

Still thinking about you and your lovely family Biscuits. May you be at peace. xxx

I was reading a thread about Eid today and it reminded me of biscuits saying her little one was dressed up for Eid.

for biscuits and her lovely family xxx

[winewolfhowls]

I still think of biscuits too.

[Yukky]

I think of Biscuits very often too. A wonderful spirit and a heartbreaking fate. Lots of love to Mr Biscuits and the Crumbs.

[QuietIsland2]

Still think of biscuits and her wee ones.

Thought of Biscuits this afternoon and realised its a year yesterday since she died. I hope her family are managing to cope somehow with her loss x

[LavenderRain]

can't believe it's a year, I hope the biscuit family are coping and the past year wasn't too hard. I often think about them,

[ThumbWitchesAbroad]

Getting to, and past, that first anniversary is the hardest thing. Love and thoughts go to Mr Biscuit and the little crumbs

[Northumberlandlass]

A year - oh my goodness.
Sending love Mr Biscuit & the crumbs

[catsrus]

Just seen this - hard to believe it's been a year. I often think of biscuits too and hope her husband and children are living the life she would want for them.

I came across this post while not being able to sleep which led me to read all of biscuit's threads on her battle with leukaemia. It's taken me nearly two hours but I'm so in awe of such an incredible woman. Knowing what happened in the end made it all so hard to read but Mr B and the crumbs must be so bloody proud. I was so touched by this that I've just, perhaps rather selfishly, moved my 9 month old DD into my bed so that I can snuggle her and smell her hair.

Thank you Theresa for

[needygonzales]

Sharing your courageous fight with us and for reminding me to love my children with everything I have. Rest in peace you brave, gorgeous and brilliant lady x

[HandbagHelper]

Thinking of her family -I also can't believe a year has passed.

[MarvinKMooney]

The lovely biscuits popped into my head this morning. So inspirational - thinking of her, Mr Biscuits and the little crumbs.
