    Hi Christin

    I found i had to ask questions,information was not very forth coming,I think they try not to bombard you with lots of information. i felt if they were keeping information from me,but it is just that they do not know you and do not know what your reaction will be.As time goes on this will get easier,

    I am so glad to hear you have been able to get back to taking hacks, Carol, you must really have missed being able to get out for a decent ride!

    And it is great that you now have effective pain relief too. 🙂

    And I noticed in another post that you are now in remission, may this last for a long, long time!!

    Hi Dai

    This song is great. Makes the idea of a Concert seem real. Any progress on that?

    All best wishes.

    Dear Min

    Do hope that Peter improves soon and that he continues to manage to get some sleep in Hospital. I always think if you can sleep it helps.

    God bless you both.

    Hi Keith

    Can I join the others in wishing you a good break before your next SCT. Do hope while you are away you can feel like a "normal" person for a few days!

    Very best wishes for all the future holds.

  • There is all so a good side for example I changed my gp within the practice because i felt I needed someone who would listen to me.The new gp is a lady and talking to her,she told me on mondays she does her home visits in her own time before she starts surgery,i bet not many gp do that.
