Yantan Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 Oh Michelle that doesn't sound good with the finance director - hope it all gets sorted Alex for your crappy day. And to anyone else that might need a here you are Saw my friend in hospital, we didn't stay long as she was very tired and was also having a busy visiting time as several people turned up. Fortunately as she is in a room on her own the nursing staff were fine about us all being in there as we weren't impinging on other patients. Two of her other friends, who I have never met before, arrived with a mini Christmas tree with a set of battery run fairy lights so they set it up on the window ledge for her and she was fair chuffed with it. I thought it was a lovely thing to do If they can drain the fluid in her stomach overnight they are going to start the chemo in the morning which is progress! The cancer has however already spread to her liver but you never know - if she can weather the chemo it might knock the bloody cancer on it's arse. Here's hoping!

owl Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 So sorry your poor friend has to go through all that, Yantan. Sending lots of healing thoughts. for Diez. Ms Merle, you are very imaginative with your curses. I hope I never get on the wrong side of you Mostly today we have been sitting in the vet's waiting room. Polly just slept, but I was getting very bored as I didn't take a book with me and all there was to read was Hello magazine Then a lady I knew turned up so had someone to chat with. Polly had another funny turn yesterday, but more of a faint than a fit. She just went wobbly on her feet and squeaked, and I scooped her up so she didn't fall over. She went totally limp but within minutes she was ok again. Vet says her heart sounds fine, and he thinks it is a neurological thing which can happen to very old dogs. He can't find anything else wrong, in fact she is very fit for 16. But her teeth are not good at all, and after discussion we decided on a full dental in the New Year, on the grounds that it's better to do it now than maybe have to do one in a year's time when she may not be as strong.

merledogs Posted December 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 (edited) Morning As far as I know Dad went in for his op today. Stepmum has more than likely been collected by her son and gone round there for her tea. She's staying with them the next 2 nights. Dad has his op tomorrow and we think comes home Wednesday or Thursday. I'm supposed to be going to collect him and take him home. Odd day at work as one of the bosses told the other last night she wasn't coming back into work ever again. She did appear at lunch time but it remains to be seen how things will pan out This affects me and certainly disrupted my whole day as she happens to be the finance director How very odd I hope it blows over Healing thoughts for your dad Two of her other friends, who I have never met before, arrived with a mini Christmas tree with a set of battery run fairy lights so they set it up on the window ledge for her and she was fair chuffed with it. I thought it was a lovely thing to do What a lovely thing to do. Fingers crossed the Chemo does the trick Healing thoughts for poorly Polly Marion I do hope you didn't have the munchies or your shopping could end up very costly Edited December 13, 2011 by merledogs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

griff Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 Yantan, i hope your friend can begin chemo :GroupHug: for Polly, wow 16 that is a fine age! i have to wait for a phonecall from my aunty today, my nan has been called in by her consultant... she has terminal cancer and we know she is on borrowed time, i suspect bad news as they initially wanted to see her the day after they called her, my nan is totally positive and has come to terms with things and we have sent my aunty off with info on a new treatment and hopefully her consultant will refer her for it.... my dad has said he will pay for the first session if it will get her onto the treatment..... no doubt he will say no like he did last time but i think we will go down the private referal route this time! this is the treatment we are looking into http://www.express.co.uk/posts/view/286269/It-s-fantastic-Docs-cooked-my-cancerIt-s-fantastic-Docs-cooked-my-cancerIt-s-fantastic-Docs-cooked-my-cancerIt-s-fantastic-Docs-cooked-my-cancer to look at my nan you would think there is nothing wrong with her, she is really well in herself and f we could even slow the growths down we would be happy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trallwm farm Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 (edited) Ive just read 20 pages to catch up. Its like reading a book. I felt inclined to cheer at all the good stuff but felt sorrow for all those with or nursing someone with illness and I even felt anger on behalf of those being stitched up or things going wrong. Heres hoping 2012 is a better year for everyone. Ps Those mugs are brilliant Steph. Id be inclined to go round department store buyers and Amazon to really launch what is a brilliant begginings of a range.
