This is the start of a new journey for me and my much loved friends from the original Oesophegus thread on general discussions.

We have become a close group and this will be our new home to continue our journey as life has become very hard for many of us and we keep re-living our journeys with lots of newbies which puts us all back a bit.

So my lovely friends Mel, Sam, Helen, Bern, Jac, Nic, Dawn, Sue, Cath, Lesley, Jani and the many other special friends Mel and I have made over the last 16 months this is it we have a new home.

Love to all and extra strength to carry us through our next stage XXX

    Right, My friends Dad has not started chemo today as it was just to talk about it!!! The plan is as soon as a bed becomes available he will go in for 5 days have a break and then another 5 days so I presume he will be having ECF or ECX ?

    He was diagnosed July so unless it's my imagination they are as usual taking there time!!!!

    My friend(s) (both son and daughter) preceeded to tell me today they have said this is really going to knock there Dad around and well I just went mmm yes I know. Me and Tony have been telling them both and their partners just what a rough time they are in for!! So was I speaking double dutch or do they really think I have'nt got a clue????

    Sorry ranting about somebody who is about to start this awful journey but I am just so shocked that a family I am so close too are going to go through this with there eyes shut.

    Em Parallel universe !!!!!

    One of my friends ( School Mum ) searched me out this morning to tell me her Mother in Law has 2-3 months to live because of advanced lung cancer. She then went on to say that she has moved in with them and they will be caring for her, but both work full time and they have two children, one doing GCSE's and the other doing the SAT's for Secondary School.

    She really thinks it's going to be easy and that you are given loads of support. I struggled and we were lucky with the support we had. It's a steep learning curve isn't it Em?

    Bug hugs

    Love me xx
