Candles for Candy

New thread

Lots of love and light

❤

Just copying the update for the evening crew...

Dad's just spoken on the tellingbone with the Hospice, and there's no change in Arnty Candys Status. She's still very weak however that kick ass,, f**k you spirit is somehow keeping her going. I made Dad's voice go all croaky and his eyes leak when he had to explain to the ward sister that a (cheeky) Fluffy inanimate furball was asking after her and please to tell her that I'd called.. That is all.. I luffs you all, but right now that's mostly reserved for Candy.. xx

It does help to know that the person speaking is, in fact, actually a teddy bear :)

lovely update, old bear ;)

Candle lit.

It is tiny now off burning for a full night.

Night Zombie hope your floaty as hell

Night all hope the gin/beer/wine is flowing.

I am so unreasonably happy about this!

Zombie, still holding on with interminable spirit - love and light, as ever, my lovely

Fids, glad to see the ForrinLurgy has not won - you could always sniff some if your sinuses are still congested

Phalanx, you rock.

That is all.

Night zombie.

Am a real ale drinker myself but will raise a hypothetical to you!

Just lit a candle again.

FUCK!

Sweet dreams Zombie x

And thank you MNHQ

Goodnight, dear Zombie. Goodnight, dear Phalanx.

It doesn't surprise me in the least, having heard so many stories about Zombie on here, that she is sticking two fingers up to what is expected and instead doing things her own way.

Sweet dreams, Zombie. You keep on doing what you want, when you want. You'll know when the time is right.

Still no gin emoticon on the iPhone app, so 🍸🍹🍾🥂🍷🥃🍺🥂🍶 to you all instead!

Nice

Good evening Zombie, good evening phalanx

Yes, thank you MNHQ

I'm actually drinking tonight but will switch to virtual in Zombie's honour [hic]

Sweet dreams old thing.

Sweet dreams, Zombie Candy. And love.

Support, gin or whisky soaked or not, Zkin.

Goodnight Zombie go in your own time and at your own pace.

I've got it on the iOS app on an iPad - but I think that the iPad had been properly turned off and then on again. Maybe try that on the phone?

Malcolm shut down your apps (by double clicking the home button and swiping them up, in case you didn't know) then restart Mumsnet et voila - gin

Marvellous.
Zombie - I'm imagining a camp out under your window. Rows and rows of tents, aglow with soft light, the air filled with the gentle hum of some lovely song we're singing for you. All holding you in our hearts. Bearing you aloft with love.

Lighting a candle and thinking of and Zombie.

She has her wings.

To all friends/family of Candy Orr who I have not already been in contact with: Candy has just passed away peacefully in her sleep. Sweet dreams and burn bright Candle xxx
