Hi everyone well today ,especially this evening has been brilliant!! I took my dex nice and early and by lunchtime no back pain!!Hoping it will last till at least tomorrow as its wonderful The only thing is having to spend the early part of the day still dopey from all the morphine , but my head actually feels clear tonight Today was the first time I have ever looked forward to taking dex and I took it without a single moan!! Yes Mavis only one more sleep after tonight so I will now be able to bear it I think love Bridget x

I love books all shapes age and sizes Suprisingly I love my laptop Ilove my life I love the way good people care about others even those we have not met I love Dais way with words I will have to stop for now but I will be back ! Thanks Gill great post just what we need Bridgetx
Hi Min sorry I cant help about bank accounts but when Jeffs dad died we were amazed at how many phone calls , forms and visits it took just to get his mums life back on track In Olives case she is a very lively 82 but she would have found it too hard As you said about not being able to motivate yourself was exactly how she felt too On a spooky note Ken also had a Premium bond cheque to pay in !That one drove Jeff nuts ! At least your rant at British Gas lit a few fires under backsides by the sound of it !! love Bridget x
Hi Sandra I would say its worth asking about your pillow Bridget
Dear Min with a lovely family like yours you will get through this awful time If you do stop and have a weep dont beat yourself up about it though Mind you I think painting is great when you are upset I once decorated the whole house in a fortnight at one horrible time Keep on keeping on Min love Bridget xx
Hi Eve happy birthday ! Go out there and have the best birthday ever It seems so wrong not to celebrate life whenever we can and yes if your smiling makes it easier for the rest of us Have a great day love Bridgetxx
Hi Sandra welcome and well done getting on site! Sorry I cant help with the forum either as I live in Bedfordshire. Good luck with your sct, take your own mug with ( tea always tastes better than in plastic) Bridget
Good Morning everyone thakyou all for your kind words . Roberta lovely to hear from you I hope you have been getting on enjoying life Well I am now counting the hours till Wednesday!! Last night I had to call the District nurses out for an injection , which worked for a couple of hours, then it was back to "Happy Juice" Hope you all have a good day the sun is trying to shine here I just wish the looming black clouds behind it would take a hike!!! love Bridget x
Hi Keith great to hear you are still going strong! It wont be long before you feel fully back to your old self! love Bridget x
Hi Min Peters service sounds lovely I think to celebrate someones life is so important We lost my lovely father-in-law recently and the service was very similiar , even down to telling everyone how the grandchildren called him grumpy grand-dad! The last song was chosen by him and up until it started playing everyone was sobbing But the moment we heard "Always Look on the Bright Side of Life from Monty Python a smile spread around the room and a grin when the swear word was left in! Still makes us chuckle Please Min dont be silent on here we need your straight talking wisdom and I for one would miss you Take care of yourself love Bridgetx
Hi everyone my word for the day is –TERRAPIN leaving PIN for the next one x
Hi Sylvia sorry to hear you had a down spell but very glad to hear you are feeling more positive . I usually find myself feeling down for a few days after hearing disappointing news or results but to be honest after a couple of days I think what the heck and carry on, because what choice do we have There are so many new things coming through and if your doctors are anything like mine they are fully on board loooking for new treatments all the time So keep on keeping on we are all there with you and if you have a down day just yell and there will always be someone on here to help you out of it Good luck with your next treatment love Bridget x
Good Morning Eveeryone Well I have returned from the land of the living dead!! Ok it was only a flu type bug– but I get no sympathy here as Jeff has man-flu and toothhache and evryone knows that is the worst thing ever! The good news is I have a radiotherapy appointment for next Wednesday which is brilliant !! I wasnt sure it would be possible to do it in one session but looks like he is going to try , bless him. But I mustnt get too excited in case it takes longer but just knowing there is some hope helps so much So my lovely friends it wont be too long before I stop moaning and groaning , thankyou all so much for you support as always I couldnt manage without you Bridget xxx
