Hi Gill
Yep I remember your jaw problem on Face book, well av had the Zmeta now every four weeks for just over tw years now, I will be pleased when its (if) all done I hate the "Lets hunt a vein Lol"
Yep it would be better if the meds they gave you to make you better caused no side effects :-S

Hi Eve
Am pleased it was the tooth 😎
I think we are all the same as Slim ie looking so well 🙂 the only time I looked like the man thats got Cancer was when I had my Transplant and lost all my hair (never grew back proper?? am sure i had hair on top??? he he) how many times have we been told "Wow your looking well" 😀
The Two year post transplant has come and gone Eve so am expecting this next Zometa to be my last one but am sure I will still have bloods taken but not as often 🙂
Will keep you all informed 🙂
Love Tom "Onwards and Upwards" xxx
Hi Jean and Frank

And Jean I do hope you show Frank the above? it is a man thing I know I was same until I got got ill and needed to go on all the bloomin pills now I dont have to feel strong nor do I have to hide what I am going through with anyone, we need to get help and treatment as soon as possiblebale.

Hi All
Well I cant say I know how you all feel, cos i dont and will I ever know how you all feel??? well am afraid and pleased to say No am sure i wont with me being the MM Person am not set up for going first but Elaine(the young bride) and I are Looking along those lines.
The Only Advice I can give is Please Please dont feel sorry to have lost you Partner or your Parent but try and feel happy for the time you spent with them (i know its easy for me 🙁 )
There is no good time to lose anyone let alone near Xmas and the first Xmas without your loved one is going to be very hard mu thoughts and Love are sent even harder and faster to you all at this time.
Love and loads of hugs to you all (((())))
