Hi Dai
Someone smeo where along the lines is telling porkies :-P. we found out today that the consultant – the top dog is on all weekend. I think it is the case of passing the buck. Frank is quite relaxed about it – I think the fact that he will be ok to watch his beloved United tomorrow may have something to do with it!!! :-S The only thing…[Read more]

I wonder if someone up there is trying to tell us something 🙁 they started Frank this morning – gave medication – put him on drip to flush the kidneys out – said chemo will be up very soon – long story short, someone ba**esed up, as chemo didn't arrive and then it was too late. Can't give it to him tomorrow as cells have to be put back within…[Read more]

Ann, Peter, Tom, Elaine, helen, Eve and Slim. Thank you so much for you advice and support. I am very grateful for all your friendship.

Did not sleep with worry…[Read more]

Thank you for your good wishes. We thought we would get the call this afternoon but nothing. Frank has his bag packed – so it's just a waiting game.

Thanks Vicki for the info. We are seeing stem cell co ordinator and consultant tomorrow and the Hickman is put in on Friday. I know all hospitals are different but do they allow wife to stay as long as they want? I am just hoping the PP have dropped to 0 from 2. I seem to be obsessed with them.
