All my friends and extended family have distance themselves for fear of not knowing what to say or do. You are right in reminding that I do have the gift of time with my mother and that I should take full advantage of it.<br /><br />As for Northern Ireland advice, ask away. I don't know if I'm the best person as I didn't like living there but I'll try my best.<br /><br />I'll make sure to add your blog to my blogroll so I can check for your latest posts.Flippin' Yankhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04622875046958372575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9140005953803793903.post-75776674111581337672011-08-31T18:20:57.603+01:002011-08-31T18:20:57.603+01:00My father also had non-smokers lung cancer.

He never smoked, rarely drank, and though he was a bit overweight, was active most of his life.<br /><br />My dad had the same prognosis given (6 months or 14 months). He lived another four years before having enough. I was flying over from England at regular intervals to visit him, wishing I could do more. It sounds like you've had some good news in your more recent post to this one, and I'm happy to hear it. I wish I could have spent more time with my dad, but it wasn't possible. He was also a very proud man, and he found it difficult to accept what was happening to him. You may not feel very lucky at the moment, but you actually are. Being able to spend time with your mother right now is such an incredible gift... :)<br /><br />Anyway, found this blog a while back because I too am a California girl who's tangled up with a Northern Irish guy. He normally lives in England, as I do, but he's over there atm, and is likely to stay there for a while (no matter how much we both wish he could be here). Conor is from Kilkeel, and is now living in Enniskillen. I'm doing a programme in law @ Durham University, and am planning on doing a social policy programme @ Queens Belfast. Any advice you have about all things Norn Iron is more than welcome. <br /><br />http://yankshirerose.blogspot.com/Grrlscouthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08341062107255040254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9140005953803793903.post-86585337731725503172011-08-03T11:32:52.319+01:002011-08-03T11:32:52.319+01:00Laughed at this vid... am passing it on to my fell...Laughed at this vid... am passing it on to my fella.
