Lovely morning chit chat - February 2026

Hi Claire, welcome to the Incurables group. As others have said, this is a very friendly group and everyone joining is going to benefit from some of the nicest people I have ever met. Everyone has your back here. 

So sorry you've had to join us and I really do wish I'd met you elsewhere. Everything you've said we can all relate to and can empathise. 

I'll speak again I'm sure.

Hi everyone, haven't been around for a few days and I've caught up on most of your posts. 

Stella, I must be the last one to wish you a belated happy birthday, so sorry I'm late. I see you're having problems and I'm so sorry to hear about that. Hang on in there and hopefully you'll improve back to a kind of normal that we're all enduring. 

I had bloods taken last Wednesday morning and on Wednesday afternoon I had a phone call from the cancer unit at the Ulster hospital. Unfortunately the nurse warned me that my blood results are very poor, in fact they're the worst I've ever had. It seems when someone's blood results are at that kind of level then a nurse will ring and have a chat. I feel like I've been hit by a lightning strike and I'm still numb. A haemotologist rang me the next day as usual and she had a long chat too. 

On a happier note, Mrs Tvman and I are on a ferry from Belfast to Cairnryan to drive to Glasgow to visit our son and daughter in law and our very latest granddaughter whom we haven't seen in person and most of all we can't wait to hold her for the very first time. I'm sure the tears will flow.

We've not been able to go because as you know we're having a new kitchen installed as well as some building work. Our patio doors were removed, ready to be replaced by larger ones but then there was a delay and we had to get the doors area boarded up so as the house wasn't fully secure. We were very reluctant to leave it empty, even though we're in a relatively remote area. 

Sorry everyone for the long post, but that seems to be my type of post these days as I have so much to say.

Hugs to all

Have a wonderful time with your loved ones in Glasgow TVman and Mrs TVman. It will be such a great joy for you both to cuddle your latest addition to the family. If you fancy a trip to Speyside just let me know  I keep my fingers, toes and everything else crossed that your bloods will stabilise again soon. Love to you all from

Hiya Stacy, so glad you have had a great time last night at the concert. Nothing like a live performance to make one feel good for a while and forget about everyday issues. My son, his wife and my granddaughter (age 5 1/2 ) and I are going to see Nathan Carter at the end of March in Aberdeen. Little Mirren is a huge fan of his and has been going to see him since she was 3 years old. She is very musical and loves to dance. I go to pieces every time when he sings Bridge over troubled water. Mind my most cherished concert has to be Andrea Bocelli in 2012 in Birmingham. It was magical. Hope you have a cosy weekend. Love from

Thank you it’s so lovely to be amongst truly understanding people and know we have the same feelings 

I’ve had  a very busy social day and for many hours I’ve forgotten then it hits me again like a freight train as if it’s all new again 

TVman, enjoy your journey and have a lovely time with your little one.

Hi Angie, sounds like you have got over the flu just in time for spring. Now you can drive again in your new car and enjoy life without having to rely on your daughter? Schönen Abend

Guten Abend Patrick, starting to feel better but my legs feel like jelly after a while. Just have to take it day by day. Hope you will enjoy a nice relaxing weekend. Love

Hi Stacy, my thoughts will be with you tomorrow and the coming days. I wish you strength and patience.

Hiya Stacy, like Patrick I will keep you in my thoughts over the next few days and wish you all the best for tomorrow and your convalescence. Looking forward to see you posting again when you feel up to it. All my love to you and your loved ones
