FUNCURLS FOOD DIARY, BLOG and CHIT CHAT!! New target set!!

Thanks Honey, you've been doing a lot of catching up by the looks of it! My F-in-Law is OK as he can be- he's 87 and in a residential home but it looks like he might need more nursing care so I think this will need to be reviewed/his needs reassessed in the near future! Bernard's Mum is recovering but she's so frail amd has dementia noone's really sure what her rehab potential is- she's now on an elderly rehab ward and the care seems to be of a pretty high standard. My Mum is just a mystery! They call ovarian cancer 'the silent killer' and it really is, because she's able to live a full life and feels well most of the time (when she's not undergoing chemo etc) or having pain from symptoms! But we know that eventually the cancer will overtake her! Anyway...let's think of some upbeat, cheery things now!! XxXxXxX

BIG BIG BIG SQUEEZY HUG Hev - sorry you are having such a tough time, extra hug for your mum xxx

Oops, this post should clearly have been on the sirens page!!! It's late and I've got my threads muddled up.......sorry Hev!

Nooooo Jay, it's lovely to have you here visiting me! I need the attention lol! You're right though, it's quite pleasant to go into town or to the cinema and not have the place teeming with kids! Only coz I'm not used to them though living in a quietish place and in a quietish household (depending on what Dai has in store lol) xxxxx

((( BIG HUGS ))) chica. You're having a tough time of things at the mo.

Cheery and upbeat? Now let me see. Other than the UK's splendid performance in the Olympics I'm struggling.
Anyone help me out here?

Thanks Bevvers! I know there is squillions of good stuff going on out there and I am grateful for the good things in my life, but when bad things are happening it's hard to see the positives! Things aren't really looking good for my Mum at the moment and I think it's a matter of time before the cancer totally takes over xxxx
 
Hevs - I am so so sorry about your mum.
I know it was probably inevitable at some point but I know you'd hoped that you could get her over this latest hurdle.

More ((( BIG HUGS ))) coming your way.
:bighug:

So sad to read this, sending you all my love xxxx
 
Thanks all for your amazing support! I know that much worse is to come so please bear with me- if you don't mind I hope to stick around and chat through it all as I think it will help but I don't want to bring people down- everyone has their own problems going on and I'm aware that people naturally want to be around people who will lift them! X X X
 
I'm here Hevs. No chance of getting rid of me chica. Chat away and we'll help all we can.

We are here for you Hev
I know when my mum ( god rest her ) was critical in hospital
you lovely ladies here on minimins helped get me through
without having this place as an outlet for my feelings I think
I would have gone mental x
 
Thank you thank you thank you thank you ladies!!

Mum has ended up in hospital again today!! Throwing up, weak (despite 2 units of blood yest), shaky and more black stools! Biopsy results from stomach ulcer were inconclusive as the biopsy consisted of dead cells! But did reveal a fungal infection! So hoping that this particular menace is responsible for some of the symptoms and with the antibiotics/antifungals will make her feel better?! Or perhaps I'm clutching at straws! We're all meant to be going to Center Parcs for Mum & Dad's ruby wedding anniversary next weekend but it's looking unlikely! However they are both adament that Dai and I, and my Brother and his brood (who live in Bolton) go ahead with the weekend as the money has been spent and they won't get a refund! I'm not comfortable going without Mum & Dad, and if Mum's that unwell I'll want to be with her! Unless we spend some time at CPs and some at M&Ds?! Longleat is less than an hour and a half from M&D x

Fingers crossed that she rallies a bit and that this is all a temporary blip!! X
 
I hope she rallies too. Lets hope the antibiotics/antifungals do their trick and make her feel better.
Lets hope you can get a break at CenterParcs with your brother - it would probably do you the world of good.
But not if you're going to be worrying about your mum or dashing between her and CPs.

I'm off to bed now as I have to be up in 6 hours to go to the airport.
