Thanks for your good wishes. We now have a plan whichtakes some of the stress out of things. Op is on next Thursday and I know what to do about warfarin etc. Then see how we go. One day at a time
Yum scones. Glad to see there are some left.
Sorry have been AWOL working for a couple of days.
Hope everyone is doing OK.
youve got me thinking now, maybe I will bake scones tomorrow.

To the new girls,hello & welcome,Gillian i've just read what you posted on the bit about closing the live chat,it was nice of you to say to give us a chance,i'm sure if they just pop in & have a little look at us they'll realise we're a friendly bunch,this is one of the places i know i'm safe & will get hugs & support when i need it,i'm sorry that all of you are having such a rough time & hopefully things will soon start to improve
The scone was yummylicious,i wish i could bake,well not so much bake more be bothered to bake
Hello Steve,not often we get a good looking bloke in for a cuppa with us (yes i did go & have a look at your profile,i'm a bit nosey)
Well all that yacking has given me a dry throat so i'm putting kettle on to make a cuppa,hands up those that want one
xx
Hee here I always seem to log in when you've got the kettle on! Hubby would say that's typical me! A nice cup of tea milk no sugar please, you never know I might actually make one soon lol.
Oh Carol I just read back, sorry that your dad has to have chemo but it is doable not pleasant but I certainly have lots of good days. Do you know how much and how often yet? Mine is fortnightly so I get about 9 good days in between. Perhaps we'll have a wine with our cuppa, you sound like you might need one! Have put a white in the fridge and a red on the shelf-take your pick xx
Hope everyone is enjoying the scones and feeling ok today.
Jakki xx
Dear Carol, so sorry your Dad is going to have treatment, though I hope it will help and sort it out!
Haha, I'm here too, ready for a cuppa, thank you.......have brought some Frangipane tarts, I've been to our local Costco and they jumped into the trolley. Do help yourselves.......
Hugs to you all xxx
Moomy
Here's your cuppa Jakki,i'll open the red if you don't mind,best to let it breath for a while so i'll drink my tea then pour us a glass
I've had a think about things while i had a bath & resigned myself to the fact that my life is mostly going to be a pile of poo with the odd clean paving slab
Dad has to have yet more blood tests another scan then see oncologist again & decide if he wants tablets or a pump of some description,the only thing we know for sure is it's not going away this time, the chemo will slow it down,not cure it
