Hi tinsley
Thank you
Yes my Danielle is on a rollercoaster of emotions at the moment and I think it could have hit her that one day she will b grieving 4 me even though I have explained my situation to her with the help of Macmillan I dont think it sank in until now xx I was very shocked with the sarcoma diagnosis still am tbh but another fight I have on my hands
Dont get kicked of the site omg wont know what to do without Daloni

Kym i think it is wonderful that your son is at home at the moment ,for all of you ,my daughter and partner were with us for 6 months ,at 29 years old ,it was bit chaotic but helped us all ,as she is not that well and obviously i m not great
there is too much pressure on youngsters to leave home , enjoy him being with you
hope your radiotherapy goes as well as possible

Dear Kym
It's difficult to know what to say, such a young life, utter sadness. I am glad that Macmillan are helping you.
Much love to your family xx
Another night in pain
Really beginning to get to me just dont know what 2 do .palliative care comin again Wednesday hope she has a few more options for me
Kym xx
not surprised it's getting you down, you've got far too much on your plate at the moment, and pain is the last thing you need. Don't wait till Wed, ring the hospital or hospice today and see what they suggest. Pain is easier to manage once you get on top of it, don't let it rob you of sleep at a time when you need all the resilience you can muster. Big hug xx
Hi
I agree with Tinalay. When it gets to the point that you dread the night time because it brings pain, you need to get on top of it.

Morning Daloni and Tainlay
I managed a few hours in the end .yes you r both right I have just phoned them n someone is comin round today b4 1pm
Kym xx
Well done you! Hope they come up with something to help xx
I am very relieved to hear this . In my experience, my GP and the hospice nurses have been very keen to make sure I’m on top of the pain. I hope you find something that works.
xx
