Dear Roz
My heart goes out to you. You are in that dreadful situation of almost beginning to grieve the loss of Michael before it happens. Of course you will be feeling "I want my husband!" You will also worry away at whether you could have stopped him having more treatment which, in the event, hasn't worked and which has resulted in this…[Read more]

Hi Roz thankyou but I must admit to feeling ashamed for moaning about trivial matters x

Hi Amelie its possible Johns platelets are low , which can cause bleeding A blood test will show whether this is the cause , probably best if he rings his team love Bridget x

Hi Shirley sounds like you are all set .Love the early xmas dinner what a good idea Try not to worry too much , it wont be long before its all over Good luck and lots of love Bridget x

Hi David
So sorry you have had this bad dip. Good job you are a fighter.

I say a little prayer for you when I wake in the night.
Blessings to you and yours.
