Oh goodness poor you and what a sorry state the business is in. You seriously need to take care. Just because you are in remission, it will take some time I am sure to regain your health fully. Good of you to volunteer, but don't do it at the cost of your health.
Glad your ears are being unbunged! It is horrible when you can't hear properly. I was scuba diving a few years back and to trauma to my ear and was quite deaf for about 4 months. It is horrid cos you can't always hear when people call you names .

Hi Steve and Gina, religion is a funny thing everyone has different belief's, am attend the local multicultural center, person's from most culture's and believes, each religion hold's a service anb we all join in, after the service meal's are supplied belonging to the culture, most believe in the one God, we just call him a different name and worship in a different way, some have multiple God's, but there's one believe that goes through everybody, that's respect, forgiveness, tolerance and peace.
I watched from this morning till about 2.30 when the dog, Sidney, said enough is enough I am going to make a mess in the house if you don't take me out!! However, when I got back, I rewound to see more of the Windsor bit. The whole thing was absolutely amazing. Bet there are some sore feet and tired people tonight, including the Royal Family. Even Charlotte and George were so well behaved.

Hiya both, how are you doing?
Richard will be coming toward the end of his steroid tablets and his improvement is absolutely amazing. The doctor saw him at the surgery where he was having his INR done and said how well he looked. His appetite is still very good and there is still some food left in the house!! If it isn't nailed to the pantry floor or locked in a cupboard somewhere he will eat or drink it.
Whilst he is physically so much stronger and even walking without a stick, his moods are still all over the place and I never know what mood he is going to be in. Do you have good days and bad? He is trying his best to be more helpful to me and trying to take over the "blue" jobs which I have had to do for ages now and this seems to keep him occupied. But then another day, he seems so down and depressed and I have noticed his secret supply of gin is going down more quickly. This obviously does not help with his mood.
Just wondered if mood swings are connected with the hormone treatment or perhaps the cancer. He is no longer having diarrhea thankfully, which would have made anyone depressed.
Cheers
Gina
