Hi all,

I wanted to explain my lack of creations and general absence just lately. To cut a long story short, I haven't been well for a while and I am currently still in the UK because of this.

I was diagnosed about a month ago with pre-cervical cancer cells and started having treatment. But on the 25th of last month, my Consultant called to tell me that they have recieved further lab results. I do actually have Cancer of the lining of the womb, as the cancer cells are in lots of tiny patches. I am now on more treatment and am looking at possible surgery in the next few months.

I just wanted to thank all of the people who have constantly mailed me on here, Facebook and in email messages. Even though many of you did not know about what was wrong, it was lovely to know that I was missed and so many of you had noticed my absence. For this, I am truly grateful.

I also wanted to apologise for some of my patterns not working with some of the later games like Ambitions. I need to update them and hopefully I will start working on this soon.

I am also thankful to everyone who has left thankyou messages in the last month on various creations. I promise i will catch up and thank you all in your own guestbooks.

I really do appreciate your comments and it really does inspire me to carry on creating.

Hugs

Simonetta.xxx
