Hi everyone,sorry i've been so very quiet but i've been in the wars with my staircase,a few weeks back,i was getting ready to go to bed,after making sure everything was switched off,and tidied up,Steve was in the kitchen clearing away the dishes,i was ready to go on up,anyway i can honestly say i don't remember climbing up the stairs,apparently i blacked out and fell down the stairs and landed on my hallway floor,very lucky i never cracked my head open. Thank god my Stephen was home,next thing i knew i was waking up in hospital,with a lovely swollen head and a fractured skull,i stayed in hospital for nearly a week,. Been told its gonna take about 8weeks to repair,i've also knocked my senses,so for the past 3wks i've lost my sense of smell and taste,its been horrible. One good thing out of all this is that it hasn't triggered my mm,so i'm still in remission. I'm starting to feel alot better,been a little bit down but picking up again,. Hope all is well and enjoying the lovely weather,have a good weekend take care Shirley x x x

What are you like. You are supposed to be taking it easy, not head dives down the stairwell. It was a good job Steve was there and I am glad you are home and recovering… just take it slow, sit in the garden and get an escort up the stairs… here I was taking your silence for an enjoyable, carefreee time. Tut, tut… and I mean tut. 🙂 :-/ 😎

OMG Shirley,
What you playing at? you go to all the bother of having a special stem cell transplant and then you decide to learn to dive without water. :-S
I think you just like hospital food and wanted to get back in there!:-/
Thank god your Steve was there,when you needed him. I hope your taking it easy and wearing a big elastoplast, or no one will know what's wrong with you!
Take it easy and get well soon, I imagine you have had all the jokes you can stand. So just relax

Love Min

Bridgett and Tom,loving your sense of humour ha ha,keep it going.I'm not doing to bad,although i now have blistered lips and a very sore mouth,went to my hospital to have it checked out,and i'm glad i did as i might have a very bad case of thrush or it could be graft verses host in which they want to happen,they gave me anti fungal tabs to clear the thrush if it doesn't start clearing up then they are almost sure its graft verses host,they took swabs but won't know results til Wednesday,i don't know seems to be one thing after another ha ha,but i'm ok other than that. Have a good weekend folks take care Shirls x x
