Now that is a "good" ending 😀 .

Yes Dai, I have also completed the survey. I do not have to rely on benifits but I know what you mean and if we want people/organisations to help us we need to give them the information they need. I urge everybody to complete the survey – it is painless;-)

Things are sounding a little better already Fiona 🙂 . I would not worry to much about the tears. I think you will find most MM sufferers suffer from emotional bouts, in the main I believe this is a side affect of the Chemo. A sad story on the news can reduce me to tears for some reason.

Is that a photo of your Son you have posted 😉 . Hard to imagine you as a michelin man! I was on Dex but whilst I got hungry I did not seem to put on too much weight about a stone. They took me off it a month ago, pre SCT, and I have not lost any weight at all.

Welcome Roberta, I knew you would make it.
The site is still going through its testing stage so there are minor problems that need sorting but do not let that dampen your enthusiasm it will all get nailed down in the end.

Hi Fiona, I think the initial phases are always the worse in any illness. I failed my first stem cell harvest and then had to wait 5/6 months for the Bone Marrow to rebuild. I had my next attempt a month ago and it went very well. I got 2 million plus out on the first day. That gives me a pool of 3 500 000 for my transplant which, fingers…[Read more]

I tried to reply earlier but it would not go, the Techys must have fixed it:-D

for the tech guys: I put an underlining under [b]For the Tech Guys [/b]in my post on the 12th all subseqent posts were then underlined! Today I deleted the underline from my post of the 12th and now all other posts are not underlined. You have a problem I think!

For the Tech guys:-) Tried to post a reply to Tom's "I am off post". I clicked on the reply button but got the message "done- but with errors on the page" however there was no box to reply shown. Closed the site and reopened then tried again – same thing. I note this one works ok. Might be me but I thought I would post it anyway.
thanks…[Read more]

You are right there John. There are several ex-forces personnel on the site. I served in the REME, joined 1960 and was invalided (nothing to serious I might add) out in 1978. I enjoyed my 17 years; I spent 12 years in the Parachute Brigade serving in: 16th Parachute Workshops, Brigade HQ, 7th Parachute Regiment, 22 Air Squadron and 1st…[Read more]

Is it possible to have the last post first, after the intial discussion post, as opposed to the present system where we have to scan through sometimes 26 posts to get to the current one. Normally you can reverse posts on sites I visit but I have not noticed a button for that – sorry if I have missed it:-)

Hi Nicki, I am pleased that Sam is coping so well at the moment. I am right behind him, I go in for SCT on Monday 22 Nov, so will be following your posts with great interest.

My understanding of the process is that he probably will feel a lot worse over the next 3 to 5 days. But we must bear in mind that it affects everybody differently.…[Read more]

The cost of living is going up, but, it still seems very popular8-)

Hi Stuart, May I start by asking the you to pass on my thanks, the new site is a real improvement on the old – well done.
I was going to ask if we could have a couple of non MM topics; such as Humour and Photographs I feel it would broaden the site appeal and give us somewhere to share things other than MM. I think the existing topics are good…[Read more]
