# 26 ~ Prize-winning!!

Hello again - and thank you for all the messages of support.

This image has been posted because when I arrived home I discovered I had won 2nd prize (80€) in a local photo competition entitled 'Doors' - this is the tabernacle door in a 12thC chapel!!

A trying week in part - not least of which our RAV 4x4 completely broke down halfway to hospital on Tuesday - I had to continue by taxi!
I have had so many tests which will be completed by a PET scan next Thursday.
I spent yesterday as a day patient having a shunt/cannula/port (call it what you will) fitted -
the term "going for the jugular" takes on a whole new meaning!

I'm glad you got to come home. Sorry to hear about the car and terrible trip. That port will help save your life, but not pleasant at all. Congratulations on the Door. It is a very lovely photo!

Your car broke down and you got 80 bucks, wow! Hopefully you are ok!!!

Awesome....must be a great sign too. ;) Glad you got through the port okay. Yes, the testing is a pain, girl. But, it must be done. Want to make sure everything else is good on the PET scan. My prayers are still going up and btw......this is one fantastic shot. Congratulations!
