(((((((((((((((((((((((Michelle)))))))))))))))))))))))))))) X

Emma Jane, You get back here right this minute !!!!!

There is to be no floating to other areas without leaving one little nugget of info for your gang !

Well Mrs, please day there has been some improvement.

************************************************************************

Helen, You are very naughty, but that's one of the reasons we love our doll, so put george clooney down, and come and play.

************************************************************************

Rochelle, I'm just so sorry that you grief is hitting you so hard right now. Remember you have your Mum's strength, this will see you through. If you want to rant and wail away just call. I am semi getting there with all my house problems, but won't be able to come out to play until next week.

When you are next at the cemetery, check out my Mum's new candle lamp. I know it's not your colour, but they do the exact same one in a mottled light green with a clear crystal droplet. Something about it made me think of your Mum. I got it in the Range £8.99. Bargain.

Be kind to yourself, you hold your Mum in your heart now, so you have to look after yourself.

*************************************************************************

Nic, I know you are struggling, and everyone else has expressed that there does seem to be a period when it all hits. I can't change that, I wish I could, but I want you to know that we understand.

**************************************************************************

Michelle, hard times for you too. I know. I have a special date coming up on Sunday and can't bring myself to even think about it without my lovely Mum. God I was such an idiot all my life, to take so much for granted !!!. Draw strength from us all honey.

*************************************************************************

Sam and Bern, I hope your break away is helping you slow down and breath. They are never far from our thoughts, and I think that at some point this will make us proud.

***********************************************************************

Jac, I know you are completely focused, and you are doing all that you and your family need. You are a wonderful Wife, Mother and Friend. No one could ask for more.

**********************************************************************

A special mention tonight for Sue, Sam, Di, Julie, Paula,Heidi,Rach, Dawn, Sue, Wendy, Donna, Mick and David.

************************************************************************

Hugs, courage, strength, comfort, and love to you all.


When you feel that you are about to break, search back over your posts. You will see a true hero in each and everyone of us. We went through the most emotional difficult journey, made friends, a word not big enough for the link that unites us, and continue to share when we thought we had nothing left.

Look back friends, you will see. I salute you all.

Love

Oooohhhh Mel, I feel guilty whinging on here when there are so many people goin through real hell.

The back has eased a little, I have a collection of lumps behind my right ear all my joints are stiff and aching. My gums are really sore and my mouth feels like one big ulcer. The chest has eased a little forgot to tell you(I think) they have put me on a four week course of antacids to see if the chest pain is gastric related seems to have helped a bit so far. Still no appointments or letter from the Dr that was going to chase up the virus screen and send me a letter mmmmmm see I am right in a whinging mode and feeling really fed up with feeling so low. I have four sets of uniforms, shoes etc.. to go shopping for and cannot even manage the stairs more than once a day oh and to top it all I started a lovely heavy period.

I have seen that all or almost all our friends have hit real lows at the moment and all I can do is offer hugs and love because I don't know anything that works when we feel like this.

I have posted to a few threads in the last few days as I felt I could offer something to these people as I have noticed you have too melly. Perhaps the strength is coming back even if it's only for a little while.

We are all amazing and we are all tied into the rope so anybody struggling please note me and Mel are still checking in most days even if we have'nt posted so post away and we will reply. You are all much loved on here and we will always try to help you through.

I love you all for being who you are. XXX

Melem......Just read your posts ladies...THANKS.....I think all of us have a built in defense mechanism....or maybe its a case of "when the going gets tough" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=35YivWEs3zw
love you all!!!!!

#~@##@~#~@ stupid blooming Dr's and hospitals!!!!!!! STILL no appointment arrived in post aaaarrggghhhhhhh

Decided to take my head out of sand and call hospital, surprise the Dr went on holiday!!!! my scan has been requested but no date yet and my haematology appointment has'nt even had the referal made on it!!!!!

Hi Den, Hope the scan is a good one and you see your little girly with a big smile XXX

Thanks Roch. XXX

Well surprise, surprise a cople of hours after calling the hospital I get a call saying there is a letter coming out with another blood form to go get done and the haematology request has gone in!!!!!!!! Tony said well does not make you think you urgent file has sat on somebody's desk since the consultant went on holiday and now they need to hurry before she gets back. I think maybe he's right in this case.

So hopefully today or tomorrow go get the bloods re-done AGAIN(I have none left). Then hopefully by Tuesday there should be a ball rolling as the consultant will be back.

Just thought I would keep you in the loop.

???? For Mel, seens as the consultant is away if I have my bloods done tomorrow will somebody see them and make me go in if they have dropped again??? I don't want to miss the wedding Saturday. She said last time I was safer at home away from infection but if it went to low they would have to have a re-think??? Come on Dr Mel what doe's this mean.lol XXX

Sadly Em, In my experience it will only be your consultant that gets the results.

If you had a problem in the meantime, someone would call up the report and work from it, but other than that it will just sit in a file.

I know with CT Scans certain things are flagged immediately. If for instance a blood clot was seen on a CT Scan, the report goes in the file but the reading diagnosis Doctor has to inform the consultant asap, and ensure that the message is received. I imagine that the same must happen for certain blood problems.

Big hugs

Mel X
