GET WELL MESSAGE FROM ABERDEENSHIRE CAPTAIN LORNA JOHNSON

Ann, June and Morag at the 2019 RLCGA Dinner

Your Webmaster has been keeping in touch with Past Aberdeenshire's Captain, Ann Smart, her good pal Morag Clapperton and Renfrewshire Past Captain June Lockhart -- We chat every Friday evening on "ZOOM" 

As Aberdeenshire's Captain Lorna Johnson said " For those who don' t know  - unfortunately Ann has been battling against lymphoma and I am very disappointed to tell you that her chemotherapy treatment to date has not been totally effective and, consequently, she has to have further treatment that will be specified soon."

"Given lockdown, social distancing, and isolation, Ann has faced an especially arduous time. Her attitude is always inspiring. I know that you will all join with me in sending her our very best wishes through the next stage of her journey to recovery."   --- READ MORE NEWS FROM THE ABERDEENSHIRE WEBSITE

Hopefully the next lot of treatment will be successful and you need to know Ann we are very much thinking about you, and hoping that you keep fighting this rotten disease Cx
