Thank you again for your support i always know that you all understand how hard it is.
I will put some pics on Tom. we didnt put the pics of mum on as it wouldnt be fair to her but i will put one or two on , thank you again i hope you are all ok xx
Hi Eve thank you for thinking of us all. I havent felt up to coming on chatting as my time is filled with work family and spending what time we have left with mum.
The wedding was lovely and everything went to plan. mum was to ill but we went from her house and had a few pics before we went. mum waved us off.
Mums condition is deteriorating and she is on morphine to help with the pain. she gets very confused but still knows who we all are and we sit and chat and watch tv. but i will come on and let you know. Its very hard but we have to keep our chin up for mum. Thank you again for asking and i hope that everything is ok with you

hi all, thank you for your replies i know i can always rely on you all for your support. Mum is hopefully coming home tomorrow. they have to deliver the equipment to allow her to do this.
There is definitely nothing they can do and mum isnt very well. But we just want to get her home. It is really hard at the moment but we have to be strong for mum.
Its upsetting because i am getting married next saturday and im hoping that my mum is still here to see me get married. Thank you again for all you have done and i will get on to chat with you and let you know what is happening.

thank you so much for your kind words. Mum was in better spirits today. we spoke to the nurse who said we can visit when we awnt which is a relief as we can spend more time with mum while she is in there. They are also trying to sort out an assessment for monday so we can get mum home as that is all that she wants now. I am in a better frame of mind than i was yesterday .Thank you again for your lovely words at such a hard time

Hope you have a lovely holiday Min, you have the time of your life xx
Thank you all for your kind words and support at this difficult time.
When we got to the hospital yesterday the nurse gave us a number as the consultant wants to speak with us,we are waiting for them to ring us back with that appointment.we have an appointment at 4pm today with mums mm consultant,so hopefully today we will have some answers.
Mum is now in her own room as they say that her immunity is very low and they feat she may get some infection/bug .Mum said that the doctor told her he may take a sample from her lung, i am assuming that we will be told this when we speak with them. Mum was a little upset yesterday her feet are very swollen and she is on oxygen, its very upsetting. But we made her comfortable, she seemed a little more happier when we left.
So we just don't know, we still try to be positive but are scared as to what we are going to hear.
thank you again for your support it is most appreciated.
I hope that you are all ok and are looking after yourselves.
Love Gina xx
Thanks ladies,mum is still in hospital at the moment.we have been told mum has pockets of fluid in her lung, they wont drain because they would have to do different drains for each pocket.they said that it would be to traumatic even in an healthy person.mum is still being treated for the infection.we have been told to make an appointment with mums myeloma consultant about her growths etc. the hospital said as he knows mums history he would be able to sit down and chat with us.
they have taken mum of the revlimid again obviously because she is ill and it wouldnt benefit her.
But she is doing ok and we will be seeing her today again. Will be making an appointment to see what is going to happen.
I hope you are both ok and keep in touch and take care of yourselves xx
Glad that you are home Dai look after yourself and take care. Hope Janet is ok xx
Hi Dai, so sorry you have this dreaded lurgy its not good especially if everywhere is closed. lets hope your temp goes down and you can stay at home and relax.
Mum has an infection in her lung and she is on 2 lots of antibiotics for it. she also has a temp as you say it always happens on a weekend. See how mum is over the weekend and if no better we will be making the trip that mum hates. ( what makes me laugh is mum will have to sit in a and e with all them lovely people with bugs( not good if your immune system is low).
Hope you get sorted and you can just spend your weekend in your cosy bed.
You take care

Hi Eve, it is hard as my gran(mums mum) has got bowel cancer she is 92 and there is nothing they can do for her. mum is worried because of this. But she didnt seem too bad when we went seeing her yesterday so hopefully she may start to feel better soon with the revlimid. We go back to the consultant in 2 weeks which isnt bad as its when im off work so dont need to take time off. Anyway you take care of yourself Eve and will speak soon.
Gina xx
Happy Anniversary to you both
