Hi All. How is everyone doing? Anyone stuck indoors? Remember, this is a support group, and things don't always need to be medical. There is usually someone here if you just want a chat, a moan, or any stories. My wife has been stocking up on paint, so guess what I will be doing in the near future. Best wishes.
Thanks H,I think I have decided I don’t want to live in the same area as the hospital.As I only get phone appts now perhaps it’s time for a change of hospital.I’ve packed up a few boxes today,it won’t hurt to box up items I don’t need for the time being.John is trying to clear at his house to make room for his stuff that is here.X
Hi Denby, my blue anemones are really lovely but the white ones seem to have succumbed to the frost. The blue bells are making huge amounts of green leafy growth thanks to the incessant rain, which means less flowers coming through. Us gardeners are never satisfied
Hi H,The bluebells here are doing the same.I’m trying to get on in the garden but physically it’s all too much now.It’s incredibly frustrating when I’m keen to get on.It’s a lovely day though and the fresh air is lovely.Love Jane xx
Hi
Follow up results tomorrow. I had my scan over 4 weeks ago and don't expect anything nasty. My bloods were fine and the consult is over the phone, so no travelling into London. Five and a half years, so I'm hoping to go onto yearly check ups, although I did have incidental prostate cancer, so it may continue on 6 monthly. Funnily enough, I still get a bit of anxiety, but it has got easier over the years.
Hello Ianw, I wish you well for tomorrow's consultation. It's ingrained in our psyche that we have that background anxiety, its what bonds us all together on this site. I'm sure your gut feeling is correct. Take care.
