Most of us have know people or relatives struggling with the disease. I think Alma died because the actress wanted to leave. Possibly if Sally Dyvenor was leaving, Sally Webster wouldn't have either but it's better to show the hopeful side of things.

Watching Sally being 'cured' of cancer is very comforting, but that's not how the professionals measure the 'cure'. (Admittedly, Sally does talk of the doctors 'still watching for it', so that's a plus to any watching viewer who thinks catching it early is the be-all-and-end-all to a 'cure').<br /><br Danny-Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17392710865071223502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7830446634490957159.post-43236849397162761352010-07-27T13:56:46.682+01:002010-07-27T13:56:46.682+01:00I like the fact Carla admits to herself that she h...I like the fact Carla admits to herself that she has a problem and goes to AA by herself, she's a strong intelligent person, so it makes senseChewyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13264255994407414763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7830446634490957159.post-82273800739449535362010-07-27T13:24:48.062+01:002010-07-27T13:24:48.062+01:00even Sally herself said that she wasn't cured,...even Sally herself said that she wasn't cured, they were still watching for it. she has to take medicine for months or years? to keep it at bay. my aunt in law had a similar story to sally's (found lump, got it checked, it was cancer, removal, medicine, health) while my mother in law was battling a different cancer and died.Ginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13217168727425173993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7830446634490957159.post-5999463746891452072010-07-27T12:36:28.979+01:002010-07-27T12:36:28.979+01:00I think the Peter story has been handled brilliant...I think the Peter story has been handled brilliantly, tbh<br /><br />And people actually DO get cured from cancer, my dad was when he was diagnosed with it last year, so I don't see why Sally shouldnt be cured of it.Chewyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13264255994407414763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7830446634490957159.post-91078312828646252052010-07-27T12:22:23.041+01:002010-07-27T12:22:23.041+01:00On reading this I thought that at some point she w...On reading this I thought that at some point she will probably get over it - like Peter.<br /><br />- But it's not like catching a virus! From what I've read alcoholics are never 'cured' - It's always with them FOR LIFE - what they do is learn to address the issues that compelled them to become an alcoholic and control their urges. They never just 'get over it'.
