Bone Marrow Transplant 4 Lisa
Whether you knew Lisa or not, this page was your chance to post your messages. Your thoughts really did help lift everyone's spirits.
Thank you.
Here are your messages:
| Simon, I hope you and the girls are well and it is good to hear that you are now embracing the life of a part time worker. As you say I cannot believe 6 months has passed so quickly. Just wanted to let you know that last time I spoke with Lisa I promised her 2 things, 1 of which was to spend more time with the family by working less hours - well I can happily say that in a couple of weeks I will be saying goodby to the M62 commute and starting my new job. As for the second promise I am still coming to terms with the fact that at some point I will be buying tickets to watch Dirty Dancing the Musical with Rach. Look after yourself over the coming weeks - you & the girls and Lisa are always in our thoughts. |

Apologies to anyone trying to post on here of late...one or two 'technical issues' have cropped up meaning you would have seen a very ugly error message. I've finally managed to figure out what's going on..should be OK now. Is it Wednesday again? |

| Hi Simon,Ella and Amelia, bet those shoes are not so shiny now! Hope you are all keeping well and liking your new schools. |

| What a big girl! Can't believe Ella is a school girl already - seems like yesterday since she was born! She looks very smart in her new uniform. You must be so proud of her. Hope Amelia is coping with nursery without her big sister keeping an eye on her! See you all soon, x x |

| Simon, Ella and Amelia, this site is lovely. I read the updates and everytime I want to really cry but the tears of those of someone completely overwhelmed by the positive force left behind by Lisa and passed on to the bravest family. I feel inspired when I read the messages and tales and would like to thank you all very much for the laughter caused by your adventures. Thanks Jane, John, Laura and Molly Tuckett x |

| I keep up to date with you site Simon and I hope you are all still doing well. I'll have to make sure I am in school when you are working so I can see you when the 'dreaded' exam invigilation season starts again, Love Sue x |

Sarah - I don't even know you but thank you very much for becoming a blood donor and registering on the bone marrow donor register. You...and many others I know...have done something very special. It is very humbling to think that because of Lisa and her story, other people's lives will be improved or even saved. Thanks again, Simon |

| Hello Simon, some time ago S.Mooney sent me a link to your website and it nugded me to become a donor. I am now a regular blood donor and I am also registered as bone marrow donor. I know its too late to help Lisa but I thought maybe if I could help others with the illness, possibly something positive could come from this awful situation that yourself and the girls have been left in. i look forward to reading another update, take care, kind regards, |

| Thanks to our computer whizz of a son, we are now back in the 21st century and can look at Lisa's web site without having to visit Susan and Robert's 3rd bedroom! We have just had a wonderful 3 days with Simon, Ella and Amelia visiting us, it finally stopped raining long enough to fill the paddling pool on Sunday afternoon, although the wind was a little cool. We then had a lovely outing to Wild Britain in the village of Wilden on Monday with the "hedgehog trail" prooving very popular. I am not quite sure why I became "granny" instead of "nanny" but Amelia probably had her reasons! We look forward to visiting you all in Bakewell as soon as it can be arranged. We both noticed the children had grown taller since we saw them last, a week is a long time in childrens' lives. Sending our love to you all as always, from Mum and Dad. xxxxxx |

| Memories are such a good thing to have especially when they can be recalled with as much love and warmth as you so obviously do.I am always amazed at the positivity both you and Lisa always showed in the face of adversity.as I've said before on here,I am in awe!!Your 2 gorgeous girlies really are very lucky to have 2 parents such as yourselves.I'm sure it's not been easy Simon and I'm sure it won't suddenly become a bed of roses,but keep smiling and keep buying good bottles of chablis and make the most of your 2 days of the week(during termtime at least)when you can have a bit of 'me' time!Love Jane. |

| hello everyone, hope you are well. just a quick note to let you know that we are all still thinking of you. our school has been very busy trying to raise money for a new library as well as for lisa's charity. the recent auction of promises did extremely well! i personally bid for a car wash by 2 y5 boys and they completed the task on monday (inset day for us). the boys both did a super job - how wonderful of them to give up a day off for such a fantastic cause! much love in wishing you all a great summer break, Alison P xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx |

| Hello to you all. I visit the site often but this is the first time I have left a message although I have tried to do so several times! Lisa was a lovely lady and it was a pleasure working with her. I think of you all often and like to hear how you are getting on. The photos and video clips are lovely - Lisa would be so proud of you all. Keep smiling. Love Tracey. xxx |

| Hello Simon, Ella and Amelia, It looks like you had a lovely time at Filey,we have just got back from Mablethorpe an we weren't brave enough to paddle in the COLD sea-your'e obviously made of sterner stuff than us!!! The Thomas the Tank cake looked fantastic, hope it tasted as good. Work again,what a pain! but unfortunately we all have to do it and routine is good(sometimes)but good luck anyway. Look after each other and be happy. Kathy xxxx |
