  • We all get like that at times. we are not super human, thats for sure.

    Then we always say Pull up Big Girl Knickers./ Boy Pants,   and we still go forward.

    Looking  at winter flowers, thats going forward, good one., then watch them slowing grow and so will you.

    You find strength from some where. 

  • Moi I am sorry you have had that worry today of news of a face to face appointment. I think many of the hospitals are now going back to the pre covid way of appointments and doing face to face. My oncology unit was definitely much busier in the waiting room when I went a couple of weeks ago. There has only been myself and a couple of other people waiting whenever I have been post covid, but this last appointment was very much like the old days, you had a job to find a seat! X

  • Hi Stella, thank you. I'm back on the horse again. Your right they are changing my routine and I was really  settled in it, but a change is as good as a rest. Take care XX

  • Thanks, i did pull the thorn out, and it did bleed, that was Monday, though it was yesterday morning, could not even get my bracelets over my wrist.

    I am keeping my eye on it, it looks a bit better today, though its not right .Hope tomorrow a bigger improvement.

    I could not believe him go to gp we cannot  do bloods or give medication, lol what is it coming to.

    Did get a sling and yes i slung it far enough lol

  • Hi Chelle, my waiting room is in Chemo clinics busy as well, I have to go there for accessing my port for bloods. Some have face to face, but quit a few still vidio calls. Be nice to be face to face chat. Thanks for your reply XX

  • Thank you Stella, Wales was fab we stopped at Criccreath right on the beach at the top of Cardigan bay, beautiful place, as you say so underrated though will be going back soon. Sheila, my fiancee, and i are currently at Heathrow not a beautiful place, on our way to Tromso, hope you've had a good day and family are well.

  • HIi Chelle, I was at the ACHD department this morning for my annual heart MOT, last 4 years there's only been 4 or 5 patients, today there were over 20 "luckily" I always get my tests done quickly though still takes 3 hours.

  • Hi Moi, never doubted you would get back on the horse, though it's always a concern when your regular routine is altered, I would think most doctors have their own way of dong things and as Chelle says, and I agree It looks like face 2 face appointments are returning. All of my consultants and GPs hated phone appointments.

    love Eddie xx

  • I know I must seem like the odd one out here, but I honestly prefer having phone appointments with my oncologist! The face to face appointment could take over 5 hours travelling time, then a 10 minute chat, then a 5 hour journey home! Madness.

  • Thanks Eddie . How did your tests go, do you have to wait for results. Are you in Norway yet. Have a good few days. XX
