Restaurant Card

Hi Paul hope you get the photos and it helps x

Thank you so much for the photographs. This card is exactly what I am looking for and would be so helpful. I will try my local Macmillan Office to see if it is available in our area.

Once again, thank you.

My teeth hurt so bad that I couldn't eat anything but soft food and couldn't take a bite of anything

Hi and welcome. Have your teeth been a problem during or after treatment? 

Hi. If you struggle to get one I would be happy to make you one (I run my own printing company) no cost. I'm going to make one for my hubby who is in the very early stages of starting to eat after finishing his treatment 10 weeks ago. Xx

Lovely gesture that, sure people will appreciate x

Hi Jintymc,

Thank you so much for the lovely offer. I hopefully I will be working with The Swollows Foundation, in developing a card and data base. I will keep you informed on its progress.

I hope all goes well for you husband and if he needs to talk or asked questions, please do not hesitate to get in touch.

Paul

Thanks. He won't come on here at all. It took me all I had to persuade him to go to the Maggie's monthly support group, so I just pop on here occasionally to see what hints and tips I can get from all the fabulous and helpful folk on here so my offer to make the card is just my wee way of trying to give something back as I've had so much help given to us. 

I was the same for a long time. For a long time,I had my head buried in the sand, as I tried to cope on my own. What I do know is if I hadn’t talked to people when I did I would not be here today. I would not have had the opportunity to walk my daughter down the aisle, or swim with dolphins with my wife etc.

Today, I am 11 years cancer free but dealing with some of the awful after effects of radiotherapy. It is now that I feel I need to talk to people more and more, to find out how to deal/cope with some of these issues. I have received invaluable advice from people who have been through what I am going through and know the answers.

So keep talking, even if it is on his behalf. X

Hey there, I'm really sorry to hear about what you're going through. It sounds tough, but it's great to hear you're working towards some sense of normality. I haven't come across a specific card like that, but it's a brilliant idea! It could really make dining out easier for you and your family. Maybe you could try creating one yourself with your dietary requirements listed clearly.
