    Hi Chris,

    Well that is a relief ... (from my mental capacity point of view!!) I thought you were going to CAB on a Thursday - your day off and then read the posts wishing you well for it today and decided I was clearly getting muddled-headed and had made a mistake ... but I didn't!! So, has the weather forecast improved for your queuing? This time tomorrow evening you an tick queue at CAB and see doc off your list - YIPPEE!!!

    Speedy
    I have had OA since mid twenties. It affects my hips and knees. I had a THR on the left aged 30 and now have a resurface-replacement on the right - done May 2010.

    I managed to get completely muddled, too - in fact I'm not at all sure I didn't start it off! Put it down to having just half a brain cell left and that's on a good day.............I've been a day ahead of myself all week.

    It is definitely Thursday tomorrow, I just checked (asked OH and he looked at the newspaper) so the best of good luck Chris for tomorrow, queues (mingle, merge, morph, slither and edge your way to the top) and CAB personnel and docs!

    Thinking of you both, I could not forget it was Thursday you both go as one of my friends has her 6th chemo session today. There are others, having to do what they have to do today and not looking forward to it on jot.

    I do hope you both find the help you require from today's visit(s), or at least get the ball rolling even if it is slowly.

    Love to you both

    Sorry i let you down.Sleep won the battle as I have been totally drained for past 3 days. So I stayed in bed after getting son off for respite club.

    Going to try again next Tues and Thurs.
    Chris i might be saying something stupid here but have you phoned for your DLA forms? Or are you seeing CAB about work related difficulties?
    Take care and hope you were okay today.

    You just cant fight sleep. I was awake at 5 a.m. but that is the problem- no quality sleep. I am still in bed now tapping away as each time I get up I feel awful. Toni I was too tired to psyche up and Im not worried about it as Im used to having plans disrupted due to arthritis.
    I just hope Chris didnt struggle,

    Hi Elizabeth,

    What you need is a magic pill to get some zzzzzzzzzzzzzs. Would your gp help you with this, if you ask?

    Hi Elizabeth

    OH is coming up trumps going to see Toy Story 3 twice!! At least you are able to rest even if you cannot sleep. Are you able to doze now in the day when you are without anyone with you?

    I do hope you feel better soonish.

    Love

    Elizabeth so sorry your day/week not good there. Hope you feel better soon. (((( ))))). Thank you again to everyone who has posted here and got me through today.

    Hi Chris,

    Didnt want to take over your thread just wanted to let you know if you couldnt make CAB queue (for health reasons) not to feel guilty or bad about it as its not easy.
    I feel inspired by the size of your queue!

    I did have a lovely rest and boy did I need it. Now its your turn Chris.Put your feet up.
    Cris Lucy found the film very sad and I got a shock cos the pick n mix came to £9 !!!!!!coke and popcorn made it up to £15.

    No prob with anyone or any thing on this thread lovey. Was sorry you had such a rotten day there. Don't feel guilty we all know that good intentions sometimes really can't be achieved. Just felt I should kinda close this chapter after all my blathering but then realised I had left it on page 13 :shock:

    I know what you mean about not feeling able to get there. If it hadn't been for the good wishes and encouragement over the last few weeks I could so easily have turned over and gone back to sleep this morning. When you know people do actually care and are wanting you to help yourself it does spur you on to find a bit more strength. I am paying for my efforts now but hope tomorrow will be better.
    Don't feel bad love, we will get you there too when you can find the strength.
    love and hugs and wishing you a better day tomorrow. (((( ))))
