Don't listen to him, Bev. I'll get a proper chicken, and give it a complex series of rotations. Thinking of you.

Hi Bev,

Just wanted to say I'm thinking of you, praying and swinging chickens! We call chickens chooks for short/slang in Australia :D I don't say chook very often but just thought I'd mention it, don't know why really :D

Anyway, Bev you know I'm hoping for the best possible outcome for you. The waiting and wondering must be difficult and we are here with you, right by your side, holding your hand waiting with you.

Please continue to keep us informed. All the best for your upcoming tests/appointments - you will be in my thoughts and prayers and I'm swinging a big chook around! :D

Love you ❤️❤️ xxx

Bev - My DH and I have been blessed with friends who have been "holding us up" these past 3 years. Even from afar, we can feel their prayers and their support. I call them our stretcher bearers, and stand amazed at their willingness to bear our stretcher over the long haul. I want to be one of your "stretcher-bearers", and promise to send all the virtual love and support I possibly can for as long as you need. You are in my prayers, Pattie
