Popping in for sleepy fairy dust supplies.....hope you don’t mind I grabbed a handful as good sleep seems very elusive....
Sending kind thoughts to anyone having a rubbish, frustrating, stressy, low, sad, weepy evening....xxx
I know Stokesley one of my best friends lives there and it would be no problem for our Lydia to get to you. She has a mobile treatment bed or if that would be hard for you to get onto could probably just use your own bed. Just remember dont ever be stuck. I know little treats like nails and lashes can be important. I hope you are recovering from your procedure.
LondonLass hope you are feeling better and to the rest of the fruit loops hope sleep comes to you all and you have a restful night xx
Hi Elliekate, thanks for thinking of me! I’m doing okay! Sadly not much change in the ‘toilet issues’ department and still waiting to hear from the hospital. But I’m coping.
This week has been a busy one, looking after mum following her eye surgery on Wednesday! I’ve been Nurse Sal since then and Puppy sitter for my sisters pup! Which in turn has exhausted me.......so why the hell am I still awake at 4am ?? I have no idea, but right now I am going to switch off my iPad and TRY to sleep!
Sending lots of love to you Hun and all the other Fruit Loops! Stay safe and away from any Nasty Germs! Love you guys! Sal xxxxxx
Hi LondonLass
Sorry you not getting any relief yet Sal and no hospital appointment either ! All I can do is empathise , I still haven't gone back on meds so still can be unsettled but chemo seems to have reset it . Bit drastic for a reset !!
Its 20 yr since I had the resection so no longer go to GP ,he admits to not knowing about bowel . I have IBD nurse practioner tel. Number far more useful than GP or consultant .
In the meantime could you stop panic buying the toilet roll the country is running out .

LondonLass so sorry your problems arent getting any better, I hope you get some relief soon. Enjoy your puppy sitting, they can be exhausting. Weve been looking after my daughters Akita, she is 11 months and very good except she goes crazy when somebody comes in. She bounces all over them and shes a big girl. I will miss her when she goes home though.
Have a good day fruit loops xx
Aha, puppy sitting, LondonLass and Elliekate, snap!
Henry-pup is just over a year and still exhausting! He can be rather clingy but when out and about he thinks he’s all macho and a big boy! Then he sees something and has to sit and think about it for a bit! Makes walks last for ever!
so sorry you still have that problem Sal, hope they see you soon to find ways of helping.
Hugs xxx

Sorry Northerner, I might of bought in a few to cover the next week......
But I NEED them, I’m going through them like you wouldn’t believe.......
Don’t worry I recycle the empty rolls
OKAY, OKAY things aren’t quite that bad!! Thankfully!
moomy and Elliekate Puppy sitting is GREAT Fun, but blooming exhausting! But then Pebbles is only 11wks old! So a BUNDLE of energy! But also very snuggly!
