Always know I can rely on you all for support. Today turned out to be another rough day! My Uncle, Dads brother has been taken into hospital with pneumonia! He’s in Wales. Dad is naturally worried and after yesterday’s funeral, we are all just feeling a little emotional.
Sending Lots of Love to you all. Sal xxx
Oh Sal, you must all be feeling very fragile, nothing seems to be going that well at present; but rest assured, every single one of your Fruit Loops are totally with you in spirit and holding your hand (and your parents too) from afar.

Well Fruity loopy ones I am at work and one more hour of a 12 hour shift to get through. Please God don't let anyone fall, or have a fight, or run off, or collapse or do anything which will stop the smooth running of the shift.
Because after 8pm I am on ANNUAL LEAVE for one blessed week xx

Hello everyone
It's me . But under a different name. My old account won't let me sign in. I can't be bothered to contact technical so made a new account. Searching flower names and found this but then realised after I had made the account I had left out the 'w'. Silly me!!
Trying to catch up with posts. Sympathy for the non sleepers and those with difficult things happening in the family.
Not great here either. My brother who has leukaemia is now on palliative care and his partner won't let any of us siblings visit. She has luckily allowed his two children to see him. His daughter thinks it won't be long. He's on high doses of morphine and is very confused. Community nurses in the day and a night carer.
As for me I am unexpectedly in hotel NHS. Wednesday pm my heart rate suddenly soared and blood pressure dropped massively. After various phone calls I was told to get ECG which I managed to do at GP after some persuasion. She said I needed to go straight to A and E. Got there about 7.30 and eventually got to a short stay ward about 1am. Been here ever since.
They now think it could have been due to low magnesium so had magnesium infusion this afternoon. It has taken them a while to get heart rate down despite huge doses of various drugs.
Hoping I might be able to go home tomorrow if everything remains stable overnight and ECG shows regular rhythm.
All come at the wrong time as solicitors finally nearly ready to exchange so might be moving week of 16th August. Feel exhausted and too tired to move! I ought to feel excited.
Hugs everyone
