Escape from Cancer Treatment

Escaping in a book. A mental break from everything. Small things bring me joy. Loved that there was a sentence that started with And. I love to start a sentence like that. Small joys. Simple joys. Got to take them where you find them. A journey through cancer is tough.

Nothing like a good read. Hope all is going well keep smiling. Thinking of you

[Ashley]

A good escape! Praying for you!!

[David]

I like this
And I like many of your other ones.
And I also like beginning sentences with
And

[Newbank Lass]

@yrhenwr Good!!

[Newbank Lass]

@yrhenwr I have LR on my mobile...

Prayers and thoughts while you are going through this difficult time. I begin sentences with "And," adding a comma as I learned to do in my junior high Language Arts class in the 60's :).

[Saxa van Eijnsbergen]

Small and simple joys, that is what it is about, thinking of you!

[Pat Knowles]

We were always taught not to start a sentence with And!
I also love to start with And, why would you not? Good you can consentrate on a book, not easy when your thoughts are all over!

[Sarah Munnings]

Hey Ruth, glad you can escape in a book, it's my favourite retreat from the world

[Dianne]

Nice you can escape for a wee while in a book. Starting a sentence with And was a no-no for us too - I like the previous sentence of two words as well.

[Newbank Lass]

@dide me too.

[Maggiemae]

I just saw recently that its OK to start a sentence with 'And'! In certain circumstances. I like it too. Glad you are enjoying your book!

[sally agnew]

Simple and quiet times to lose yourself in a book. Take care , love and gentle thoughts your way Xx

[Clare Gadsby]

as well as loving reading, i'm also a bit of a font nut. this looks like a lovely one (maybe garamond?)
and and and ... am delighted to see you taking simple joys wherever you damn well can :)

[Babs]

Hope you can immerse yourself in a book for a while. I was taught not to start a sentence with And too, but I have to admit I do it now occasionally. Rules are there to be broken aren't they.

[john morley]

Love your shot and thinking, sending you a big online hug. Small as it is I send it with hope..

[Jane Pittenger]

Yes!!!

[Marnie]

Nothing like a good book to take one into another place for a while.

[8yearson]

Sorry to learn you are having to deal with Cancer. It seems to strike so many more these days, and so much younger too. Good that you can concentrate on a book... And starting a sentence with and is ok!

[Rosie Kerr]

I hope you can continue to find moments of escape and pleasure, as you walk through your difficult journey.

[Rachel]

I'm so glad you can escape into a book for a while. I remember being taught for years that we shouldn't start a sentence with And, and then in our last year, how we should.

[Daryl O'Hare]

As an English teacher, I get a real chuckle out of this one. So many rules that really aren't rules. Break them all I say.

[Shepherdman's Wife]

I too escape in a book. Helps make the world go away for a while. I do hope that you are feeling better. Could I have access to your blog? Sending good vibes and hugs your way. X

[Newbank Lass]

@shepherdmanswife you should be able to see them now.

[Shepherdman's Wife]

@newbank thank you so much. I've had a quick look through and it has reduced me to tears. I had no idea what you were and are going through. I will read your blog properly when we get back from holiday (we're in Scotland at the moment). Keep strong Ruth.

[Pam Knowler]

A lovely moment to relax Ruth - reading is my favourite pastime!! Thinking of you - big hug xxx

[Taffy]

Wishing you escapism when you can and progress in what you are escaping from.

[CC Folk]

Find small pleasures and escape any way you can. One day at a time. Hoping soon it will be nothing but a memory...
