What wonderful words and beautifully sung. Had a little cry.

Keep up the good work.

Love Jean xx

Liz so glad to hear that it was sorted.

Love Jean. xx

Dai you have done it again. Typing this with tears on my face. You have a fantastic gift. Janet is a very lucky woman. Long long may you be with us.

Love and best wishes

ps Min no matter who wrote it was beautiful and you shared it with us. Thank you. xx

Min I like Eve wish I had your way with words. That was truly beautiful. We are lucky to have you and Dai. You both can write what a lot of us think but can't express. Thank you

Hi Liz

Sorry to hear that Kev is having such a bad time. I know what you mean about men being stubborn. (sorry all you men out there!). I am sorry that I can't give any help on the problem that Kev is having. Sometimes posts get "way laid" or lost so maybe if you start a new topic under Treatment or Side affects with a heading on the problem -…[Read more]

Dai. Thank you so much. You can put in words what most of us are thinking.
Love Jean. xx

Hi Gina

My husband diagnosed sept 2006. He is not on any treatment. His protein went up to 31 and then dropped to 24 started to rise again and now is 28. Dr said that would not start treatment as other bloods were within range and kidney function was good. She sent him for MRI scan three weeks ago but have heard nothing yet. We also go back in…[Read more]

Bridget what brilliant news. I am so glad to hear more good news. Now those horrible night demons will take a hike. So take it easy on the housework. I had a boss years ago and she always said "there is an acceptable level of dust", something I live by. (that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it)

Good on you!

Love Jean xx

Sorry Ali after reading my post it did not sound right. I meant to say that sorry that you find yourself in the position of joining us.

Dear Ali

I am sorry to have to be one of the first to welcome you and Guy to the forum. Getting the diagnoses is as you say a terrible shock but you have come to the right place. My husband has SMM and the people on this site are terrific. They have a wealth of knowledge and they will be there for you when you need them with information,…[Read more]

Brilliant news David. I am so happy for you. Also jealous that you can cycle 5 miles!! Your news is a great way to start the week.

Love Jean xx

Dear Susan

My deepest sympathy to you and your family on the passing of Kevin. When I first joined the forum Kevin gave me good advice on worries that I was having about my husband, for which I was very grateful. As Dai and David say "He was one of he good guys".

God bless and take care.
Love JEan xx

Hi Eve

I am so glad to hear that Slim has started to recover. He certainly has had a terrible time I hope he goes from strength to strength quickly. Don't forget to look after yourself. My best wishes and prayers are with you both.
Take care

Dear Tina

I am so sorry to read of Patricks passing. My deepest sympathy to you and all your family. I have been following your posts on Patrick and you both were an inspiration to me. You had 34 wonderful years together and many good memories. I really don't know what else to say Tina. I know things will be hard but your posts show that you…[Read more]

Hi Jo

Thanks. We leave Majorca and visit Ibiza Gibraltar Malaga and 2 other place – I forget. I have a head on me like a sieve. When we all go together we have a great time. My brother is a nutcase – in the nicest way – and he thinks its his job to ensure that everyone enjoys themselves. Hope it comes off

Love Jean xx

Hi Jo

Don't know when we find out about scan. He won't phone her. Reckons if there is anything on scan she will let him know. He finally got to see dental consultant about painful tooth. (only took them a few months). Tooth has to come out. Bone is exposed. Surgeon says because of zometa there is a chance it will not heal. He put off extraction…[Read more]

Hi Eve

I'm with Bridget and Jo. How is Slim? Do take care of yourself.
Love Jean xx

Yes Bridget CF is a horrible disease. 30 years ago, our friends son died of it at age 16. They are still very much involved in CF (fund raising etc) and tell us of the great progress that has been made.

Tell your daughter that the best cure for hang over is the "hair of the dog". (that's my excuse)

My best wishes

Hi Bridget

I can understand how your mum feels. It's bad enough watching a loved partner ging through this horrible illness, never mind watching your child.

I hope all goes well tomorrow and I will be thinking of you and you will be in my prayers. Do let me know how thing go.
