Glad you have got a bed hope youre more comfortable now. Hope they sort out the excessive fluid tomorrow. x

Hi Tricia, my computer was playing up a little earlier, so maybe it wasn't us, sleep well.

Hi Ulls, I know none of us like being in hospital but when you are in pain and uncomfortable it’s the best place to be.

I hope they give you painkillers that work well and drain all the excess fluid, so you can go home to Mrs U who will look after you and no doubt spoil you. Take care my friend.

H i Eddie mine seems to have a life of its own lo l so you could be right.     Hope you had a relaxing night. xx

I think you can ask your specialist nurse or oncologist’ PA for this. You can also claim PIP and blue badge too, easiest way is to ask a macmillan nurse to do this. 

Good morning 

I had a nice couple of days in London with my mum. Had excellent Chinese with delicious roast duck. We also visited the orchids show at Kew garden. It was very beautiful. Also saw an exhibition of giant porcelain vases. Very impressive too! 
Going to my old working place to catch up with people and having Indian for lunch today.

Morning Tricia, the gremlins pop up from time to time, it looks to be working ok again.

I'm sleeping ok, thank you, as I hope you are, enjoy your day, hopefully you have something nice planned, I'm meeting friends for lunch, then a massage.

Good morning everyone, the sun is shining but really cold.  My GP just phoned me.  When she originally referred me on the 2 week cancer route, the hospital rejected her referral because I hadnt had a chest X Ray.  I had a MRI which showed wide spread metastases and all the blood.  She phoned to tell me that the hospital have said it is their fault and a human error and would take this forward so it didnt happen again.  She has asked me if I want to take this further through PALS at the hospital.  I wondered what anyone thought of this or leave it as have enough going on right now.  Stella I love orchids I have twelve of them and once they finish flowering, the next one is about to flower so I rotate them around my house.  Hope everyone enjoys the sunshine today.
