Awake and up all night

Ah that's good Mel.  Sarah came to the rescue so any problems negotiating the site can be helped if you send her a post.  Don't ever feel like you're being a nuisance as that's why we're here; to support and help you hon. xxx

Hi Mel, and a belated warm welcome from me, though I'm so sorry to  hear about your granddaughter, I've been through quite a lot lately with family and myself, but can't imagine how difficult it is for you when it's one of the little ones.

My friend, I  have a few years in healthcare, cancer care behind me, and your nurses and doctors really want to be told everything, so any concerns, pains, or thoughts you have, no matter how small or irrelevant they may seem to you, may not be to them, so please tell them everything as the more they know the better.

Poor little thing. I hope they are proceeding quickly with her.

Hi guys, the cheesecake recipes for diabetics, they are not ours, but can be found on Gestationaldiabetesuk/cheesecake we find the vanilla one most popular.

Lurpak unsalted, being grass fed is a good "healthier", option, and sugar free digestives or Nairns oatcakes for  the base.

This is also a  no bake cheesecake, only needing to melt the butter

I started commenting on here about my beautiful granddaughter.. but I actually would like to join the head and neck cancer group... I think I couldn't cope with how fast the messages are going lol everyone is faster than me xxx

Kind regards

Mel

Hey Mel. I meant to ask if you'd previously been a member of H&N when you got your own diagnosis.  I post there also, as my OH had laryngeal cancer.  But please carry on posting here, especially if you have sleepless nights.  This thread does move fast, but don't let it put you off and the members are so kind and supportive.

Sending hugs xxx

My own diagnosis was in july 2022, I have not processed it yet either and now this

Oh crikey love.  I just hope this awful time you're all going through swiftly gets resolved, and allows you to move forward to better times.  Take good care and I'll be thinking of you.

Hugs and strength xxx

Dear Eddie my brain is frazzled

Hi Mel, I too was diagnosed in July 2022, and now have poor concentration and a terrible memory, so understand the frazzled brain analogy, so please don't think you have to read and reply to every post, it would be near impossible at times, I drift in and out through the day, some days I don't post  and occasionally just take a step back for a few days, it can become consuming, but as Gilly has said, this is a lovely little thread with some truly kind and supportive souls who really care for each other.
