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

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 till august so he can go on cruise. So he expects to get insurance. It is a big family cruise there is 15 of us and he is so looking forward to it. So pray it comes off. Not one thing it's another.
Hope you are keeping well

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.

Doing this from my phone as lost connection on lap top! Sorry to hear that you are having pain. This is such a shi**y disease. Hope you loose the pain soon. Frank and dr have had run ins. The last visit it was like watching top dogs vying for position. She said she thought he had cracked a rib he told her she was wrong and he knew his own body. Xray showed no sign if it, but I am glad he was sent for xrays.

That is brilliant of your brother will look out for photos. Tell him well done.

Hope we can still go on cruise. But Frank can't get insurance till 2 months before cruise so have to wait until 17 may. Hope results come through before.
Thanks Pamela and take care

Hi Pamela

Great to hear from you. Been looking at wedding photos on Facebook. Looked like everyone had a great time. I hope you are keeping well (know that is a stupid thing to say – but you know what I mean). I will be going with Frank – poor man can't go any where without me!! Did you ask them how long it would take for results to get to Drake. Did you have to wait untilyour next appointment or did she ontact you? He never asks about resuls – rekons she will be in contact if anything to report. I will be on enderhooks until I hear the resuls. Frank has had words with her secretary as he could not get hold of her – she was on holiday. Mind you he still thinks she is the greatest thing since sliced bread.

Take care and hope your good days far outweigh your bad ones.

Hi Min

I know what you mean. The doc gives me diazepam 5 mgs. He gives me 28 at a time, but
I only take them when a G and T stops working. Packet lasts me about 10 weeks.
Take care

Hi Bridget

Thanks for that. I do admit to being a nut case!!! I was much worse but counsellor sorted me out. How is your pain?
Remember Frank pain in side. He kept saying it was muscular and turned out he was right. Hope you got your pain sorted.
MRI scan tomorrow scares th cr**p out of me. You would think that I was having it.
Hope you are feeling better.

Hi Kathleen

If you are loosing the plot then so am I. I am a carer to my hubby Frank diagnosed Sep 2006 with SMM. He is not on treatment, but at last visit she discussed future treatment. Also sent him for skeletal Xray and tomorrow he is going for an MRI. I watch him like a hawk If he pulls a face I'm asking whats wrong!! For a long time after diagnoses I could not go out and leave him. Only in past 2 years I can go out with friends. Even then I can't wait to get back home. I am the opposite to you – I have difficulty sleeping – spend quite a bit of the night opening up this site to see what is going on. I watch Frank when he is sleping to make sure he is still breathing!!! When his mobile rings I admit to eaves dropping – I always think it is the hospital with ba news. His mobile just went off and was consultant secretary to say skeletal xray clear – thank God, just tomorrow to get over. I feel uneasy most of the time – so to answer your question (took a long time)if you feel like that and I do – must be par for the course. I hope your husband continues to being well for a long time

Best wishes Jean xx

Dear Eve
I am so sorry to read of the terrible time that Slim and you are going through.
It sounds like the hospital from hel*. I can only say that I agree with what Min has said.
It sounds like good advice. I hope that you get this sorted quickly and be assured that all our thoughts are with you
Both. My prayers are with you and Slim. Take care
Love Jean x
