It feels like the end of the wprld when you get disappointing results but hindsight always helps. Try not to feel guilty Weeble as you know it isnt your fault. I feel guilty because my Mum hurts for my illness and gets ill and upset, I know I can't do anything about it but it os hard, commiserations..
Oncologist is going to reduce the chemo dose next time because shouldn't be so tired. We will see how that goes on Thursday.
Gillian, I hope that helps you.....

Thanks Gillian
Think I've earned an A in guilt today but I feel better now.
Hope you get on ok on Thursday.
Luv to all

My son is due to get his A level results in under 2 weeks. I am worried that he won't get the results he needs, I too am worried that some of my diagnosis may have took his mind away from his studies, I can but hope he'd done enough before I had to break the news to him. Life is cruel sometimes. He needs to get good grades to get into the Universify of his choice. I am praying he gets what he needs. Hope your daughter has got the grades she needs to go on with her chosen courses. Fiona x
How wonderful our numbers are growing. Welcome to chat and support.
Dont worry about your children they are resilient and they will get through. If they don't manage their first choice in life something else will come up. Don't feel guilty you cannot control what life throws at you.
I am going to Paris for 4 days on September 18th for four days on an escorted tour. I am excited now I have made the decision. Going to lunch in Birmingham with Way Up on Momday and to Wolverhampton with Way Up on the 16 th August. Plans to go to the lakes in october and to London to see Michael Macintyre with my lovely friend Wendy. How brave am I ? Well who knows, every day I cry for my lovely man but he is always there with me telling me how nice I look so I have to carry on and seize the moment with all my new friends.
Gillian I hope all goes well for you my lovely, the reduced strength chemo will still work and hopefully you will not feel so bad. Xx
Carol keep on with the mews and don't get too many jobs or you will not have any time for your hubby again. What is MoodGym.? never heard of that one.
I have bought some adult colouring books and crayons and felt tips. Supposed to be the latest trend and very therapeutic For non artistic people like me Got to keep up with the latest trends!!
Lynda hope all is going well with the decorating.
Moomy take more rest.

Hello Fifi & welcome to the mad house
I've got 2 colouring books & pencils & pens that are like paint when you use them,i love it,i can totally shut the world out when i pick it up,don't worry Christine i won't take too much on & neglect Vince like last time,all the jobs are part time & if i'm lucky enough to be offered any i will only be taking one of them,i have lots of craft things to do for our unit,one more kitten has a home so it's just Medusa that has nowhere yet as i have a feeling my friends husband will win that battle,if i'm lucky Vince will say she can stay with us but i have a feeling that will be a no as well
xx
I am sure you will find a home for Medusa one way or another
I was looking at colouring books the otherday, I was tempted... But I was never any good at it when I was a kid!!
I have to p,u know up the courage to start the colouring in case I ruin the book LOL.
Worth a try though, I was never very good as a kid either but these illustrations are beautiful!
I have two colouring books! They keep my hands occupied when I am fidgeting in the evening.
Carol I have the texts but it is taking ages for the photos to download at the moment. When they do I will post them.
Short post I'm afraid as I am shattered after spending all day painting, with help from my son. Daughter in law coming over to help tomorrow and hopefully we will finish the dining room.
Jasmin is good to hear Mick is trying, it's a fine line between trying and overdoing things. I hope you and he manage to walk the tightrope ok.
