This is for anyone who can't keep on the topic.  It's hard not to stray, but if we have 'no specific topic ' we can't go off topic.

It is good just to be able to wander and talk about other things.

I could have named it 'Waffle'.  Then I couldn't go off topic.

  • WW,

    Not long to go now.  This time on Saturday your husband will know what to expect.  A lot of the worry will be gone for the two of you.

    Here's my little advert for Flamigel.  After a few days of Radiotherapy treatment, I was getting an irritation around my pelvic area.  I told the Radiologist who recommended Flamigel.  Apparently you can only get it from the hospital. 

    Rub on twice a day in the affected area.  Worked a treat!

    On the packet it says that it's for low grade Radiation burns.

    They were handing it out to loads of people.

    Fingers crossed Fingers crossedfor tomorrow.

  • Thank you, Steve. This is something worth knowing! Session times changed …again! Then changed back to be more accommodating of our travelling needs. I think these people think we have a magic carpet to get from our home to the hospital! 

  • Your Wish Is My Command!

  • Brilliant!  Does it need petrol, diesel or recharging? Slight smile

  • Can you tell me where to get the will power from!? I have been fighting the system for so long that they have drained my resources!  

  • I think they get a sadistic pleasure from doing this - it reasserts their control of our lives and reinforces our lack of control!! 
    sorry, feeling very battle weary today

    BUT. Very well done on staying the course! I knew you could do it. I hope it goes well and you enjoy 6 perfect months of hospital free appointments!!?

  • Cheers - We were delayed yesterday by a new "customer" who thought he was exempt from taking his enema!! He was well and truly found wanting and was "in the shit" with the staff!!

    My body is also telling me it's not happy as I normally get out of my bed about 6.30am and it was 8am this morning. This is good though - 3.5 hours without a toilet break!! No issues with my mind though (I said that not Mrs Millibob!!).

    You take care and look after both of you - I know it's hard but you are almost there.

    Brian.
