Gill started the topic Neatropaenic Sepsis. in the forum Side-effects 13 years, 2 months ago
After the sad loss of Peter (Min's husband) to the above side effect I googled Neutropeanic Sepsis and looked at the following link.
For me it was much easier to understand as it was in video form. I know it is not a vey uplifting subject but maybe one that we should all be aware of

Dear Min
I do hope everything went well. What a lovely picture of Peter you have put up. I realise that it may be a while before you look at this forum again or, indeed, you may not want to come back to it but I am sure I am not alone in saying I hope you keep in touch.
Much love Gill xxx

How on earth did you manage to spell that Dai? I have heard it said before but the pronunciation is not lodged in my mind. Any chance of you spelling it phonetically for us so we can all have a go at saying it?
Anyway I digress

Dear Sarah
Maybe you and your son should take up "debating chairs" 2 people sit opposite each other and take a completely opposing stance on a subject.
Never personal, deeply religious or deeply political but usualy loud. It could be anything I am just glancing around now and know that my daughter and I could vociferously debate what's…[Read more]

Hi Alison
Sorry to see you here (in the nicest possible way)I think this is a site that we are all very grateful for but all we wish that we had never had to even look for it let alone join.
It is my husband who has mm diagnosed in 2008 when he was 53. He has had 2 STCs but is not doing so well with this second one (much slower…[Read more]

I am so sorry that you are having such a rough time and all on top of losing Gordon.
I have no cure for your shouting M I L, well one or two but nothing legal:-) Shouting back would probably not help. You could try keeping a crossword by the phone and just make sympathetic clucky noises down the phone whilst filling out the crossword.

Hi Bridget
Good luck with your RT Hope it zaps that pain right out of the window.
Stephen saw the radiology oncologist today and he is to be zapped next week. Like you he cannot wait as he is in a great deal of pain at the moment. His scan has shown that he has a tumour that is, as the doctor put it, nipping his spine and that is what is…[Read more]

Jean it is not you I posted a word and a chat and then realised that the word I had chosen did not have all 3 last letters so I quickly deleted it 🙁
It is me with senior moments as I cannot even remember what the word was:-/

Ecstasy? Cannabis? I have had to stop Stephen climbing up into the loft to look for his kaftan, beads and psychodelic LPs.
We grew up in the 60s 🙂
On a far more serious note. It infuriates me to hear that hospitals are not willing to fund certain treatments eg Sharon's PET scans. I am no math buff and probably would not understand the…[Read more]

If the TENS machine works for you and you consider having one for home use I have one that you can have.
