Hi Clare

Don't have any experience of brats but my partner had sct last November 2012. He was very poorly no doubt and it isn't pleasant, but he got through it. He is still recovering and gets very tired however we were scared before hand. We went for it because it was Colin's final decision and I supported him. I wouldn't say it's easy but any option for a longer remission is good.

Read the thread of others, frank, Colin and Megan Jane. It sounds awful but the medical teams are so skilled and knowledgeable they give comfort and security. 🙂

I'm exhausted just thinking about it liz….medication, injections, thermometers….clacton on sea sounds good (no offence to clacton :-)). You have a great time, all the usual precautions and a bit extra from the consultant 🙂

Enjoy

Hi Helen

So pleased to hear that your back is no mm, those slipped discs are painful too though! Glad to hear you've got a solution with the hair. Have you considered different colour….again but with less peroxide in. I am sure there are Eco bleaches cos there was that scare about pregnant women dying hair? Not seen my hairdresser friend but as someone at work so theynare going to find out 🙂

Wendy, blimey some lab error!! What a relief.

Enjoy your hols in Cornwall Helen, weather is gonna be great 🙂

Hi Helen,

Re the hair…..can't you have a colour on it that has less bleach in it? There must be Eco friendly blonde colours out there as some people are allergic to the bleach. I will ask my friend hair dresser and see what she says….worth spending even more money on the hair and shoes etc if it makes you feel better. Get your daughter to go shopping with you so you can choose together then if you get fed up of your selection daughter will like them!……that's what i do with my mum 🙂

I won't make a comment about the cocoa butter…..not telling Colin he might want to try it too LOL

Hi Emma,

So glad to hear you mum is out of hospital and treatment has been effective 🙂 I can understand your mum needing to build her confidence but she has done so well, I also understand your worry about when is it going to come back 🙁 I am the same for Colin but trying so hard to push it from my mind so that we can enjoy ourselves 🙂

Fingers crossed

Oh bugger Helen

I really thought your last post was so positive and that may be it was a blip!. How come they have changed their tune so quickly. As Tom said entitled to some soul searching and then bat that damn thing right back into oblivion!!

Its such a blow for you:-(

Love and hugs
