We're not nosey, it's not prurient interest we show, we care about you, plain and simple. You are one of the most supportive people on here, you ALWAYS have time to think of others no matter how rough things are for you and that is why we want to know that you are as OK as you can be and if you are not we want to do our bit to help. We're here for you. Simples. DD
DD has said it all really Cris such a wonderful way with words , glad the sale went well , and that your friend is there to push you to badger the hospital ,hugs a bundle xxI know i am a lady ,all life is a journey xx MAY xx0 -
Hi Cris
Glad the sale was worth doing and hope you had some lovely sunshine today to lift the spirit a little. Was a lovely day in my bit of Yorkshire. Trouble is when I got home the glorious sun obliged me to balance on a step ladder over the sink trying to clean the kitchen window which has been sadly neglected. But I survived and am feeling rather pleased with myself.
Another day nearly done flower and good on ya pal for getting on the phone for you tomorrow. Hope the awful pain eases off a bit for you there today. No wonder you are shattered with it all. The houseguests and employers will still be wanting their tea. :roll:
I'll third what DD has said with such style, though I confess I had to look up prurient! You is clever wif words DD and it so appropriate.
We do care Cris and will always be here to keep sending the positve vibes, vast quantities of cope, and buckets of anti-wished juice. and these ((((( ))))
Hope you can at least have a comfortable doze or two this evening. Hang in there.
love and cuppa

Hi DD, Berty and Chris,
I feel humbled by the things you said there. I really do and I know i don't deserve this support but hell am I grateful for it just now. Since Beryl found the gord thing I was out my head... now there are 2 things and well i could be lucky.....
Mind I did say that i will treat this as huge warning if it isn't and try and give up ........
Chris its related to that habit and you don't want it cus it don't half hurt
The bones are basically on strike now.... oh this lump of bone in the rib by the sternum really is hurting as well.... The wrists are swollen, the back is useless and the neck said it didn't want to left out so bit of a hard day really
No letter or phone call so they got till tomorrow post and I shall ring them....
Cus its T it wont be inside the two week thing cus they are totally useless hence not bothering to see me for 9 months.... more I think about it the more angry I got....
If its gord the stomach acid has gone into the abdo cavity and burned at least the lungs and if the other......
Oh I wish i knew.....
I ain't good at the waiting game eh.?! Hugs and tea to you all and Chris well done! just mind the steps though. Glad you had a bit of sun and we have Berty had a bit of decent weather. DD i still feeling humbled.
Hugs and tea all round then i shall get the rest of evening duties done..... anyone want to help please? xx0 -
Morning cris
I hope the appointment comes through the post today.
If not you do right to phone them.
DD is good with words and if i could remember them I would repeat em
Just want you to know we all care about you and can't wait for you to feel much better. (((((((())))))))))
Take care
thinking of you
love Juliepf x0 -
I suspect that none of us is good at waiting. None of us like uncertainty but really that is all that life ever offers. There are no definites, no guarantees, no certainties for anyone, anywhere. We hide that basic fact with routines and structures, plans and schemes, by numbering the hours of the day, labelling the days of the week and the months of the year but basically we are kidding ourselves. We like to think we control matters but in reality . . . . .
Take heart - we're all waiting with you, it's one helluva crowded waiting room. DDHave you got the despatches? No, I always walk like this. Eddie Braben0 -

Hi Glitter Girl,
Thanks flower and hope your doing ok? You letting the kids near that plaster again cus I got a few ideas for them
Thinking of you too and leaving a ((((( ))))) and some sequins Cris xx0 -
Hi Cris,
Ooh sequins! hadn't thought of them! I look a bit like wonderwoman (just the cast!) it's bright pink with glitter all over it and blue stars....my eldest reckons I'll distract the planes (we live about 3 miles from Heathrow) he he
I'm ok, not a lot of pain in the wrist now, unless I overdo things then I know about it and stop sharpish!!!
Got a bit freaked out today over doing my Humira injection on Friday, it's the first one that I will have do, and although it went really well last time, the nurse did it, and I was in bad pain with the wrist, so wasn't really focusing on it, does that make sense?! Probably not, I'm rambling!
The knee's back playing me up as are the fingers and elbows so not sleeping well.
Makes me ashamed to moan when you are in so much pain, and working so hard plus helping me and others here, you're an absolute star Cris, thanks and hugs again Xxx'grá agus solas'
'Love and Light' translated from Irish. X0 -
Hi Glitter Girl,
That sounds brilliant Well done to your eldest
I will be fine, just remember the slight angle and slowly cus its a small needle and you will be fine. Its hard to concentrate when your in pain and if you really feel a bit unsure could you get the nurse to see you and make sure you do it ok? I am sure you will be fine though.
That's the nature f this bone thing, it hits you with a much as it can when ever it feels like it! I am old now so it don't matter but wish you youngsters didn't have it.
Poppy have you got any sleepers to help with both relaxation and sleeping for a bit? Might help but hopefully the humira will do the job and it will get knocked back a long way. You hang in there and will shoot in your pocket for the jab but I reckon you will be fine. (((( )))) and mind them aircraft xx0 -
It is a dilema but you need support and you know who you trust. Hate to think of you with out any physical support. You have loads of cyber support in your pocket all the way hugs joanneJoanne0
-
Hi Joanne,
Flower don't you worry i got a bit of decent quality physical support. it might just be by phone but they really are worth their weight in gold.
The cyber support makes me feel humbled but so grateful. You lot are incredible and I just feel honored to know you all. ((((( ))))) and promise a pm inside 24 hours. Cris xx0 -
How long till the op or don't u know yet. Have u told your fluffy employersJoanne0

Did i tell u a nasty fox killed my chicken and left my duck alone but it witnessed it and had tried to run damaging his feet a few months ago. they are all ok again laying well.Joanne0
-
Hi Joanne,
There may not be an op it depends on what is down there. They started off saying before the 26th for the test and I kinda kicked as the man I didn't see over rode the one I had seen.....
It was then in about 3 weeks and then ended up being maybe next week but be honest cus its T it might be may before they bother.... they better hope there isn't anything bad down there cus it could be they don;t know .........
Its all about saving money now a days eh? (((( )))) and no I haven't mentioned it to the employers..... they might try then selves
Oh poor chicken... foxes and daylight raids are a problem eh? I have regular fox patrols now done by Slipper Boy cus he saw the last one and we all went after it. It dropped the chicken but she was shocked and injured and didn't make it...... I wish they would stick to rabbits and not see chicken as easy targets.
Hope the ducks feet are a lot better now? Mine are starting to lay better but still got trouble with egg eating chicken and dogs as well as laying out in the hedgerows so now wont let them out till they have done at least 4 eggs and that will become more the more they colour up xx0 -
Hi Cris
Sorry I am late, dongle issues here it would appear. :roll:
Sorry they can only say before the 26th not very helpful and calls for one of these I think. Do keep chasing if you or your phone pals can find the courage to do so for you.
Really hope the hurty bits stop competing there and you get a bit of a break from the pain. I am a bit bereft of spoons today BUT there is a beautifully packed order of sweeties and biccies on it's way to Lizard if I do say so myself.
Try and get some rest tonight if you can, I am thinking of you but still have the lump hammer if needed.
love and buckets of cope for tomorrow, ((((( ))))
Chris xx0 -
Yes ducks well waddling away as usual.Joanne0

Hi Joanne,
Glad the quackers are all ok now. here if its a real raid the duck go first..... foxes eh? Still wouldn't kill them though but do wish they wouldn' do the daylight thing.... ((((( ))))) xx
Hi Chris,
Shall pop up the A30 and flag it down and tell them you said i could have some hey got some ice cream and yogurt and am going to chuck one all over the other if you would like some?
While your at wonkas I should give you some spoons flower.... hows it going? Ok i hope?
The hurty bits are doing just that but they have been worse except today the voice is effected. That's kinda what sent me off I think......
Oh I had to stop one friend today ringing them as well... Its hard isn't it cus it might just be the crohn's attacking the top end but then again it might be something really bad or it might be the gord. The gp I spoke to said the gord was more likely and i kinda thinking ok so why haven't they been treating me for it? he also said the pa will be whats effecting the ribs, sternum and lungs and the other lumps are of no consequence.... good he has xray vision down a phone eh?! Wish I had that gift.....
mind not sure what i could use it for
We could give it t Poppy to go with her wonder woman costume
Bing silly eh must be bedtime
leaving you tea and a ((((( ))))) and please use the lump hammer xxx0 -

How are the gang doing down there? Hope they are taking good care of you.
Catch you soon hun..
