Hiya, this is my first blog and i'm using this as my coping mechanism....my mum is 62 and she is the strongest, most patient and kind woman i have ever met. We come from a large family, i have 2 elder sisters and 1 elder brother, many nieces and 1 nephew. My mum and dad divorced when i was 3 and she has brought us up on her own with no help at all and she has done a fantastic job.
My mums pain first started after a fall xmas eve 2009 when the weather was very icy and cold...xmas day she was in...
Hi there
my mum has been on tarceva for a month now and has had the dreadfull spots or "rash" as it's known.
The steroid treatment did clear it up but she found the greatest relief from Aveeno products. These have helped to moisturize her skin and skeeping bad breakouts at bay.

Well, here we are again......STILL HERE and loving life.
March has been semi quiet with the weather dull and very VERY wet. Had a few good nights out with friends.
Still not finished my web site but made myself a promise to get down to it when I get back from China.
All my veg seedings are up. Far to many again, so plenty to put around to friends and family.
No chocolate for me this Easter because I had to go on a crash diet. Yes, I know that crash dieting is bad for me but, what the heck.
...Good afternoon.
Just back from plastic dressings clinic. 2 and a half hours the appointment took.
Just wondering how many of you do?? God?? Heaven?? Angels???
I have always kind of believed....my children have all been christened.....they now all attend a church school and i go to all the services with them ie harvest, easter, xmas etc.
Now the problem i have is if God exists why does he allow bad things to happen to such good people?
Why take my mom from me when i was 2?
Why allow my dad to be poorly now so he can take him too?
Why allow all of the lovely people on here to be ill?
If it is all real...

Considering I had a fit, is it safe to re-enter the world of shooters on the PC? I have been a little scared to try it up, but have recentenly load a few games back onto my PC in anticipation, but have not plucked up courage to try. I'm talking serious shooter stuff, any one else out there using gameing to escape?
