can any one tell me please --

What is the difference between Myloma and Non Hodgkins Lymphoma?

They seem to have the same symptons?

Myeloma......cancer of bone marrow.

Non-Hodgkins lymphoma........cancer of lymphatic system.....lymph glands ...spleen etc.

Thanks Squad. its just that 2 people very close to me have had illness's that have left very weak, and have badly effected their walking. The myloma person is in remission, but the non hodgkin person is about to have chemo tomorrow , even though he seems too ill for the chemo to go ahead. He has gone down hill very quickly

[Sqad]

No problem....two diseases to avoid if possible.

The myloma person had bone marrow thingy going on, but the Lymphoma person is too ill for that. So it has to be Chemo.

many thanks for reply Squad, always there to help out x

quite often with heamatological cancers, people can become well very quickly (much more quickly than people with solid tumours)
People can seem on their last legs, and then treatment can really turn them round

[pusskin]

ah good to hear that bednobs. knowing he is so weak and unwell , we pray that he will make a good speedy recovery. Fingers crossed, he will be acceepted for chemo in the morning x pusskins

I would consider terrorism to be an ongoing campaign - more than one incident, whether that be violent acts or threatening acts. Terrorism to me has a political or social agenda with a group of supporters, campaigners and activists, although one person can act alone whilst being a representative of that group. Terrorists work for a cause and under a banner.
Terrorists claim group responsibility for their actions, so even if one or more of the group is arrested the terror continues - somebody else takes up the reins.

One person acting alone, even for a political or social cause, is not a terrorist. Once he is caught, he no longer poses a terrorist threat. It is ended.
