Hi Min
The nurses are very good and never seem to stop,I asked about the strike today and the answer was no we cannot strike!!!!!!
I also asked how long they would have to work for there pensions all of them said to 68 years old!!!!!!
I think at the age of 68 working in a job like that they would not survive it without making many errors.

Hi Dai
The cost for Slim is topping £3000 as now in 8th month,but if you compare that he was in ITU for 10 days at a cost of £2000 per day its a no brainer.
Slims history is grandmother plus mother died of pulmonary embolism,his mother a year September age 85.
I have had some response to my complaint,went for start of 6 cycle today and H…[Read more]

Hi Amelia

I know it's difficult not to worry but franks protein went up from 21 to 30 (over months) and now down to 28. David is right, the doctors take a lot more into consideration. Frank hasn't had any treatment since he was diagnosed 5 years ago. Thank God.

Try and take it easy

Love Jean x

Hi Chelle
We all have days like that,because you get desperate for something to work, I must admit to being a pill popper ,mainly to keep my emotions under control,It cannot help your husband to see you so upset,so my advice is go and see your doctor,get some help,because you have to be the strong one at this point in time.
I am sure other…[Read more]

Hi Helen
It does seem worrying at first,but as soon as you mum starts the injections she will improve.
Slim had a mass of blood clots in lungs,no one realised as he did not get out of breath,plus holes from damage with pneumonia.He has been injecting himself for over 6 months now and we expect this to continue for some time.

If you put a word…[Read more]

Gosh Lol are all you Ladies ganging up on poor Slim (pluck im when asleep) but the best way to do the Brows is to wet them and comb them Upwards and trim the long bits off and their you have it a nice set of brows all tidy and neat 😎 and am sure Slim will love the new look 😎
But if you do go down the road of waiting while Slim is asleep can…[Read more]

Hi All

I was so excited – couldn't wait. At last it arrived – it was a deep freezer!! Talk about disappointed. When Frank arrived in he asked if I liked…[Read more]

Eve have you thought of attacking Slims eyebrows when he is asleep ? That would be soooo funny , but a bit cruel I suppose! Having lost my hair 3 times now I can honestly say it doesnt bother me anymore Mind you my eyelashes and eyebrows always stay which helps, but being a baldy is quite liberating Sinead has gone back to her shaved head now too…[Read more]
