Hi All
You might have noticed that she hasn't been on-line much this week offering her usual support and advice to us all.
The reason is (and please don't be cross with me for tittle-tattling Cris!), she's been having to go to hospital daily for several hours to have a drip.
This has not been very pleasant for her at all and now, towards the end of the week she is starting to feel quite rough.
I wondered if we would all like to post her some nice get-well messages of support?

Thanks everyone
Toni x

    First of all, Toni, I am sure Cris will not be cross with you. :wink:

    Dear Cris :)

    A little birdie (you know who :wink: ) has kept me informed about you this week. I am sorry to hear it was a little trying the other day. Not too long to go now. Over the hump so to speak. I remember you saying it does help you, so let's hope this continues for a long time. :D

    Lots of love and good vibes being sent over to you and your "brood" at home too. Hope slipper boy is on his best behaviour for you :P

    The happiest people don't have the best of everything. They just make the best of everything.

    If you can lay down at night knowing in your heart that you made someone's day just a little bit better, you know you had a good day.

    Hi To you all,

    I was feeling right down as they couldn't get a vein to stay long enough today so I have got another 2 days as they couldn't get more than 10 mins into me today...... and you have all made me feel much better.

    It's hard and today I like a pincushion, still in early tomorrow...... See an anesthetist who may actually mid line me and then an extra day to make up for none today....... Fingers crossed he will do the left arm as they have hit that many tendons today the right is threatening to leave me! :shock: :lol:

    Thanks again, and Toni I'm not at all cross and I do find the last few days so drawn out. xx

    Hi Cris
    I couldn't go on letting you pretend that all was well when you were suffering and we all care about each other :oops:
    I LIKE anaethetists - they know what they are doing!! :wink:
    Does that mean a longer day for you tomorrow then? :(
    Take care

    Hi Debs,

    Hows you doing? I hope better as well than you were? x

    Hi Rita,

    Tuesday won't take too long and I do get the weekend off.... Mind if I have a mid line I had better keep the employers at arms length? x

    Oh Cris,

    I know I tease you alot but I am worried about you. :(

    You work so hard and have alot of responsibilities and yet you never fail to be there for others either. :)

    I admire you so much because you always put a smile on my face and I often laugh out loud at the comments you make (not the serious ones) and your wit never seems to desert you.

    Let us be here for you now and know that we're all thinking of you and the grim time you're having.

    You are kind to so many of us and I'm sure that if we could all come over and lend you a hand with your employers (albeit arthritic hands) we would - unfortunately it can only be a cyber offer. :roll: Just sending Slipper Boy a cyber friend too 'cos I don't want him to feel left out.

    Roll on Tuesday when it'll all be over and love and best wishes from your pal Legs XX
    Love, Legs x

    Hi, I'm sorry you'r having such a rough time. We have all missed you as you see. Hopefully you'll soon be over all this and back with us again.

    You should have told us how things were going, but sometimes I know, its easier to just 'close your eyes and think of England!! Lots of love and get well wishes to you down the line, Love Suexxx :):)

    Hi Cris

    Not what we wanted to happen. I hope they do a better job for the rest of your treatment. At least the aneathatist might come up with the answer for a better place to try. Fingers crossed.
    Love

    Wow, you people are so kind....... I am genuinely touched by the things you have said. I’m not used to people being nice so forgive me I am not sure what to say....... That’s unusual as well as I normally have some answer, how ever dodgy.......... :lol: I was gutted to gain another day but I think I might try and see if they'll just do 4 as they really have hurt my arms and feet to the point I don't want anymore! I shall Have to go tomorrow but I think with the amount of veins collapsing today it wont run to another day...... I can hope! :wink:

    Anyway you all take care and slipper boy will bring you flowers and my thanks personally........ You have been warned! :lol: Many thanks to you all. Cris xx

    Hi Chris
    Didnt see this thread as havent been around much these last few days. So sorry they have got to do another day, you must be pretty fed up about that! The line is probably a good idea. If it works well for you maybe you could request it next time you nee to have your drip.
    You take care. lots and lots of gentle cyber hugs
    Love Gillx

    Hi Joanne, Page, Gill and Colin,

    My thanks to you all as well, I have loaded some more flowers on to slipper boys hopper...... I hope he doesn't eat them....... well yes i should be surprised if he didn't! x

    Hi Vonski,

    I'm dreading today....... got swollen arms, they are NOT putting any needles near the arthritic related swellings in my wrists and hands and they can't use the right arm at all! I have no doubt I shall survive..... and hopefully have more vein collapse and be home nice and early again! k040.gif

    You have a good day and don't you go worrying, Love Cris xx

    Oh Gill,

    They say they are going to mid line me every time but they never do till I get this bad. there is never anyone to do it available, or so,they say.......... Funny, they can't a vein but my cats can without much effort at all! x

    Hi Legs,

    I think I might be going for a quick sense of humour breakdown....... Quickly get on slipper boy and do the wall of death......... :lol: x

    It's no good i have to go, but thank you all as you have helped me find the steal to go and face this again as 90% of me wants to just phone and say forget it! Hey if ever anyone notices me talking about cancelling the drip again could you remind me this is what will be the payback please..... I cancelled December and its too long ago since I had it now....... Got to go...... Can you hear dragging feet?! :lol:

    Hi Toni,

    I think I actually dragged them so badly I trenched the tarmac on the way in...... But thats me done till September and I really do thank you all as when I began to feel sick and the headache exercised its visiting rights I remembered you people and you really did help!

    Thank you from the bottom of my heart. :D

    Cris xx
