  • I loved the Church ladies with typewriters xx

    you're glamorous  enough in your jeans and tops xx

    I book matinee tickets because the boyfriend is a pensioner and you can get tickets for a fiver and I know they can be vicious regarding the toilet. xx

    Just wanted to say thank you to you all for being here and for creating the thread. You're all in my heart xxx

  • Hope today is filled with lots of smiles, laughter and treats! 

    Those of you on Chemo, I hope things are going okay and you are still able to enjoy your day! 

    I will have my usual lazy Sunday, walking Bella then a coffee in the local supermarket before doing a little bit of shopping! Then home PJ's on and dare I say it, possibly a Chrostmas movie to watch or fall asleep in front of! PERFECT DAY! Well it's perfect when you have limited energy!

    So My Friends, whatever you are up to! Enjoy your day and see if you can find at least one thing that makes you smile today!! Report back later!!!!

    Sending (((((((((((BIG HUGS)))))))))) Love to you all. Sal xxxxx

    - Oh poor you, I feel for you! It's such a pain when this happens and you end up somewhere you don't want to be for hours at a time. Hopefully they won't need to keep you in - in much better to recover from bugs at home. Better safe than sorry though... 

    Last time I was an inpatient, I was not given a patient armband for 4 days, not even a red penicillin allergy one! The nurse who finally gave me one was horrified! I must admit, I forgot that I should have one - they did ask name/date of birth etc every time they gave me a drug...

    I think I may be in the same boat as you today - had a slight sore throat last night, today chesty cough, raw chest and razor throat. Feel hot but no temperature. Definitely fighting something and as we know that I've got a line infection, they are going to send me to A&E in case it's 'escaped'. I'll be packing my overnight bag in a minute! We take it with us every time as if we do, I generally don't need it!!! 

    Happy Sunday!!!! Joy

    I had a 4 day stay in hospital without wrist bands neither identity one nor penicillin allergy one. I never really thought about it and they did ask me my date of birth enough times to almost drive me insane.

    Now hope you get home to recover in comfort as soon as possible and try and make sure your visit is just to pick up some pills.

    Love to you both x

  • What a good idea....well,what made me smile today was within a few minutes when I read that “in 3 weeks the days will start getting lighter!)how very fab!

    i can do my sewing etc in the daylight...my electric light not that good....and my eyes go funny.

    and so sorry that you had a night like that!!coo!how horrid....x
