AWAKE.........

I was about to say " I get to have a second round of EC. . Now that sounds more positive. We are lucky to have there things available. 

But now the bathroom. 

Happy New Year everyone.

Good morning ...

Despite what you're all going through, I am going to wish you a Happy New Year. My wish will be for you all to be healthier and for it to be less stressful than previous years. Sometimes, I know, it is difficult to feel positive but look at us all.....we are all here to see in 2026. Fruit Loops together!

Let's be hopeful that it does bring peace, health and happiness.....

Fireworks from a small Algarve town. Not an organised event but individual households across the valley seeing in the New Year at midnight.

Happy New Year, Fruit Loops!

I’ve already walked off some cobwebs, there was a chilly northerly wind making it feel -2° this morning, but I’ve done over 2 1/2 miles already.

Seems I wasn't missed and the support I was hoping to find isn't here for me. I wish you all well and won't bother posting again.

Still thinking of you dear Santababy x

Happy New Year everyone, yes Snowys Mum  you remember well, they are very difficult indeed. Lovely to hear from you, hope all is well. Lovely to see so many people drop in over new year, life is busy for us all but eventually we all drop in. Mags123  sounds like a really rough ride you’ve had but hopefully this new job will be perfect for you. Lacomtekp  lovely pics, I’m finding your travels very inspiring. Love to you all, hope those of you who’ve had treatment recently are bearing up, lots of love x

Much love and Happy 2026 to all, let’s hope everyone can reduce stress and have the healthiest and happiest year possible.

night night Fruit Loops, sleep well and stay safe, plenty of sleepy fairy dust for all who wish

Just dropped by to wish all the Fruit Loops a happy peaceful new year. For those undergoing treatment take heart that you will get through the cycles and look forward to feeling better.

It’s good to see the thread is still up and running and nice to see many of you are still providing support to others. I notice though that lots of previous posters are missing. So hoping all is well. 

It’s snowing here in Scotland so have got the fridge stocked, books to read and jigsaws to do. And so glad I don’t have to venture out unless I want. 
And now it’s January we are closer to Spring, a thought that cheers me no end. Take care Fruit Loops - be kind to yourselves. 
I will try to look you up more often .

 Mag123  so much going on. Good results re node. Fingers crossed for your new job and 2026 as a whole. Hope your sprained ankle improves enough for you to get to work ok. 

I don’t envy you the snow Jojodot    but I too like that we are heading towards spring. 

Dearest Mag123 I would like to apologise for not reading your post and replying, I have sent you a private message also. I know how awful it feels when life isn’t going well and you post on here, only to find that people post under yours and no one even mentions you! It hurts! However it’s really not personal, it’s just a busy time of year for everyone and so people pop on say Happy New Year and leave. I bet half the people who’ve been on here haven’t even read your post! So please don’t feel it’s not worth posting, as you know the Fruit Loops are always here for you, just sometimes you need to shout louder to make your presence heard!

Maybe start with HELP! LISTEN TO ME! AAAAAAARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH! Any of these might help!

Joking aside Hun, sometimes it’s worth reposting and saying you still feel upset, sad or angry etc. 

Sounds like your previous employer was being a total twat and I wouldn’t be surprised to find that the reason they didn’t keep you on was because of your health. Which of course is illegal and had you of wanted to make a fuss I’m sure a good lawyer would have taken them on! 
However I hope your new job turns out to be the perfect job! Assuming you can get there with your bad ankle!! Not the best timing to injure yourself, but Sod’s Law isn’t it.

Maybe just maybe after feeling so low, the only way is UP! You my friend will walk (okay hobble) into your new job, with your head held high and a smile on your face and you’ll have a great day, meet new colleagues who will turn into great friends and you’ll not look back! But even if that’s not the case, don’t stress as you’ll just look for a new job until that is the case, because life is too precious to waste doing something that doesn’t make you happy! 

Sending a ((((((BIG HUG))))) your way Hun! ALWAYS here for you Hun, but don’t always reply for which I apologise, as I never want someone to feel uncared for on this thread! Take care my lovely and hope you come back on and post if and when you need/want too. Sal xxxxx
