    Dear Angelina

    I just wanted you to know that I have my fingers crossed that John is home on Sunday and I'm hoping that he will be home far more permanently soon

    Hi Min

    I am so glad I am not the only wierdo in the UK. I hate tennis too.

    I know how you feel about getting angry. I have felt, at times, completely fuming and bewildered as to how Stephen could get so ill. Almost like "Stephen what did you do???"

    Stephen is 2 weeks post 2nd SCT, and not yet very strong. To be honest he has been hard…[Read more]

  • Gill replied to the topic Velcade Cycle 3 Update in the forum Treatment 13 years, 5 months ago

    I am pleased that you are doing so well. Stephen still has PN in his feet but I believe that this side affect does go eventualy.

  • I am so pleased that you are doing so well. Enjoy your holiday and let us all know how it was on your return

    Dear Min

    I am so sorry that I have not picked up on your postings before. Being busy with Stephen being home I have not really looked at the site. I am pleased that Peter seems to be on the mend and hope that he is home on Monday and feeling much better.

    Love from Gillxx

  • Gill replied to the topic 2nd SCT in the forum Treatment 13 years, 5 months ago

    Thanks to everybody for your good wishes. Well, It does seem to be a slower pace than the first SCT but it is moving forward, if slowly. Stephen's appetite has returned with a renewed vigour and he makes DEMANDS (cheeky so and so!) OOOHH I realy fancy shepherds pie/sausage casserole/ spag bol. He is having a bit of a problem swallowing so his food…[Read more]

  • My heart goes out to you Angelina for all that you are going through. My husband (Stephen) is the mm person in our life.

    We had a very lazy morning laying in bed until about 8 am and chatting. I told Stephen about your posting and we came to the same thought.

    A memory book is a wonderful idea. I did one for my mother in law when Stephen's…[Read more]

    I was not sure what heading to post this under, but knew that people would pick it up if they wanted too.

    Stephen came home today after his second transplant. He was in for 17 days and, although that was 2 days shorter than last time, he found it all much harder.

    He is in agony with his back pain (crushed vertebrae sp?)his legs won't work…[Read more]

  • I am so sorry to read your post regarding your wife's death. We all take our blood for granted as a nothing and then,when we get into the world of blood problems, we start to realise just what can go wrong.

    I do hope you are starting to come to terms with your loss and wish you well

  • Gill replied to the topic Pain Relief Changeover in the forum Treatment 13 years, 5 months ago

    I wish I had an answer Bridget. Stephen always seems to self medicate (ie takes more than he is prescribed) but it never takes the pain in his back away completely

    I do hope that they find a cocktail of drugs to help.

    I have not been on here for a long time, because of things being so hectic with Stephen's mm and other stuff, and have not yet caught up with any posts so please forgive me for just posting about me and mine

  • Gill replied to the topic Velcade- subcut in the forum Treatment 13 years, 6 months ago

    OK I must have something very wrong here. Stephen has been having Velcade through his PICC line and has had very bad (and I mean bad) diarrhoea. His Specialist asked for a sample but was very surprised and thought it was nothing to do with the velcade. Gill (or confused from Orpington)

  • Gill replied to the topic Need to offload in the forum General 13 years, 6 months ago

    Hi Lorraine

    Off load all you like. I cannot help with advice on the revlemid as husband Stephen (mm) has not yet been on it, but it looks like it could be on the cards.

    Do keep us posted as to how you are doing Gill XXX

  • I am so sorry that Kevin has gone. I just want you to know that I am thinking of you. Gill xxx

  • Dear Tina

    I am so sorry for your loss. I am sure that it is of little help at the moment but please know that I, like everyone else on this site, am thinking of you.

    PHEW I have not been on for a while and am reading posts from newest backwards. I thought I read that you HAVE got bowel cancer.

    So pleased everything is fine love from Gillxx

  • Hi Sally

    Welcome to the site. I am sure that you will get a great deal of information and support from everybody on here. It is my husband who is the mm person, and I have found a great deal of support and information on here. Good luck

  • Gill replied to the topic sorry in the forum Newcomers 13 years, 6 months ago

    I cannot imagine what you put in your post to cause offense as I have not been on here for a while, but I think it would take a great deal to offend us lot. After all the greatest offense is getting this b**tard disease!!!

    I am so glad that Slim seems to be on the mend. Fingers crossed that he keeps on improving.

  • Gill replied to the topic Devastated in the forum General 13 years, 7 months ago

    Oh Kay I wish you had scrolled a little lower and read "from devastation to elation". Thank you for your kind thoughts and wishes but they checked again and Stephen [b]has[/b] got more frozen cells and they are viable He will be going in for a second SCT after all.

    Hope you are well love from Gill xxx
