Well girls heres my news, Duracell bunny very tired today but ok in general, feeding machine been connected all day, consultants appointment on Monday, Chemo No 3 on Tuesday boo hoo, my brother rang an hour ago to apologise for not visiting, ( he lives 250 miles away) also dropped the bombshell that they have found a tumor in his head, im kinda numb, almost denying the conversation took place, got that head of mine in the sand again, just like with the screening

Love, love love you all
Kate xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

My Dear Kate,

here you go again with your head and the sand!!! gonna take all the sand away from you! haahaha I hope all works out with your brother and it may be a benign tumour on his brain that he has, you never know. I don't know if you remembering me saying before that i had a brain op well if you want any advice then just ask ok?

I'm so pleased the duracell bunny been resting well and that she has had an ok day. Lets hope this continues for her.

I hope her chemo on tuesday goes well, please let me know how she gets on ok? will be thinking of you both.

I know it's after chemo has finished that you always worry more but do try to be prepared and keep away from any sand! lol how many more courses does she have to have? Darryl had 6 courses altogether.

let me know how everything goes and how your brother gets on also. Will be thinking of you love big (((((((((hugs)))))))) mother hen mel xxx

hi Moomy,
thank you for your reply to my post. I read your profile and can now understand how you feel being called a little chickie, but with your permission i will continue to call you it as everyone on here are my little chickies! hahaha

I'm so sorry that your daughter has been so ill, but you sound a strong supportive mum so she must take after you! I'm pleased that Teresa will have someone to talk to if it turns out that her poor Michaela has the same illness, which i am hoping and praying that she hasn't. But i'm sure you're with me when i say we are all joined in a group hug around Teresa and Michaela to wish them well and good luck!

I'm hoping you and your daughter are having a pleasent evening and that all is going well for you both at the moment?

As i say to all my little chickies i'm here for you if you ever want a chat or just rant and rave. You take care love and hugs mother hen mel xxxxxxxx

Dear Mother Hen Mel, thank you for that sweet greeting, it' makes me grin to think I've a mother hen looking out for me, it's great! Yes, I also send an enormous hug to Teresa and Michaela and so hope that I don't need to give her any help at all! My girl has and is still going through so much....love to you too, I feel really cared for.....

My Dear Little Chickie Moomy,

I'm so pleased you feel cared for as thats my intention with everyone on this thread!

We all need to feel like someone is looking out for us no matter what age we are!! so you lean on me as much as you want thats no problem at all! lol

I feel i must warn you though that we do get a bit mad on here sometimes, especially when things are going well for us all, but i have no control over that! hahaha My little chickies can get a bit out of hand sometimes, but to be honest i think i start my fair share of madness too!! lol

You and your daughter are in my thoughts and i hope we can help you as you take this journey with your daughter. She can lean on you and you can lean on us all for strenghth. I also truly hope Teresa won't need advice and guidence from you about lymphoma but i take comfort myself knowing that someone else will be looking after her too. I'd like to thank you for that on Teresa's behalf as i'm sure it's a comfort to her too. I'm hoping she is resting well in bed at the moment as bless her she has been through so much she must be exhausted now. You just wish you could do more don't you?

take care love and hugs mother hen mel xxxxx

Mother Hen Mel, I'm sure I don't need to be warned about being a little mad, maybe you haven't seen or heard about my dippy times on 24/7???? I even ran a short rehearsal of a cyber choir!!!! I'm pleased to hear that you think Teresa is resting, when are Michaela's results due?

Hi Chickie Moomy,

Choirs eh? well we haven't had one of those on here yet so maybe when everyone feels better thats something you could start to cheer everyone up! lol
Michaela, Teresa'a daughter gets her results on thurs/fri. So we are keeping our fingers crossed for them. Michaela is only 17 and Teresa's only baby i'm sure she won't mind me telling you that. It's such a shame there is a need for forums like this, but i must admit without it i probably would have really gone mad by now!!

My husband Darryl was diagnosed in sept 2007, but i didn't find this site until jan so up until then had tried to cope on our own. But since iv'e been on here and chatted to other people it has made such a difference!

Not sure if you have read my profile, or my novel should i say! lol but it explains all about Darryl's illness on there?

take care my little chicky love and hugs mother hen mel xxxx

Yes, Mother Hen Mel, I have read your profile, and am honoured to be tucked under your wing, this site has such amazing people! I am going to sign off very soon and get some shut-eye. Love and hugs.....
