Hi Tony,
Oh the day this lot help me and look after me will be the day i will need to run
Hope you got a bit more sleep that's a hell of a time to be posting there :shock: Tea and a knee get better bucket Cris xx
Hi Julie,
Well the bones were going to always cash in on the fact I felt so rough eh?! I think it will be ok to wait till the 26th but they don't know that and its just typical of T's cost cutting..... A lot of hospitals with their 20% reduced budgets are going to be doing this just T's been ahead of it and doing it for the last 12 years now...... wish we had a choice here I really do!
Hope your ok and the flamingo's are all still well, and permed? Bucket of tea for us both then I must make the shoes go on and could you do them up for me please? ((((( ))))) xx0 -

Cris, Luce is doing brilliantly. She went back to gymnastics club yesterday as she is now feeling so much more confident.
No knotty hair either.

I apologise for being late in today, skezier, things are kinda rough.
Right, 26 April or before? They are hardly rushing, but then they never do down there, do they? The pace of life seems similar to the accent, all drowsy and dreamy, warm and cosy, which is all very nice but when waiting is involved - NO. I can feel a bit of this coming on: and that's without the assistance of meth!
You know we are behind you one hundred per cent. I am sorry it is going to take so long - did you offer to take any cancellation? That seems like a plan to me. I'll be back tomorrow, perhaps, we'll see what the rest of this blasted day chucks at me first. Take care, I am thinking of you. DDHave you got the despatches? No, I always walk like this.

Hi Cris
Am determined to get a post here a tad earlier today. :roll: Think you are right the cuts are biting and delaying appointments everywhere which is so frustrating for everyone. Imagination, and fears can run riot eh! We do so understand that and are sending up "hurry up appointment vibes" down your way. Along with some "treatment which will ease things for you quickly vibes". Hope your psychic GP is just that, so hang on to that thought if you can and put the others fears in a box.
Hope the ice cream and yoghurt helped the throat, sounds a lovely idea I must try sometime. So hope it stayed down too and that the sickness stays away with the new meds.
Wonkas is manic and they are even working Saturday but the boss has finally accepted I just can't do extra hours now and does not give me a hard time over refusing for which I am surprised :shock: but very grateful. So it IS duvet day tomorrow Yahoo and much needed this week
Sending a top up of fight, pain reducer and cope. (((( ))))
love

Hi Cris,
Glad the sale went well. Pity you did not take our Sid with you! Still I have bought some boil in the bag veg so prepared for visitors...
Nice to hear the nuzzlers are back in the area. Not long now before you have them back. I hope the fencing and water is top of his to do list.
That’s great that your friend has been with you I hope things seem to better now that you have chatted it through. I hope you have an easier night’s sleep tonight. I do hope T surprises you and gets in touch sooner than you think.
I am pleased you have had some e-mails back.
Hugs as always,

Hi Cris,
Hope you were ok today? Has the pain eased at all? I really hope so, bloomin hospitals and they're appts, it's much the same everywhere cost cutting galore.
Pain not brill today, although was in much more positive frame of mind and, at the moment not freaking out over Humira jab.
I haven't mentioned the pain at night to my GP (although he's brilliant and know he would give me something,) it's just for example, my youngest (just turned 13) hit his head playing rugby today, school phoned and asked me to pick him up, he's ok, but I worry that taking a sleeping aid would mean I wouldn't hear him or be too groggy to be any use to him.
Its 24/7 job, but I wouldn't change it for the world
Take care Cris, always thinking of you hugs xxx'grá agus solas'

Hi Elizabeth, DD, Chris, Lynn, I, Poppy, Barbara and Toni,
GOOD NEWS!!!!!
Being done on Monday.... not by T though, they would be looking at may, June, when ever I am sure
Some of us here are under this place and I don't think too many people are pleased at the way they don't get on with tests etc in certain departments.....
never gone off on one before though.... it did work and have been farmed out to the private sector to be done and what do you know after a phone assessment they are doing it Monday!
I am kinda sure now its not the worst but it still hurts and will glad to know whats going on.....
hey Elizabeth, so glad she is back to normal. Its so hard being an ill kid especially when its all a bit embarrassing..... Hugs to you both xx
Hi DD its not long to wait now.... going off on one might be wrong (I actually think it is) but sometimes you just have to..... xx
Hi Chris its really nice..... Cornish ice cream of course It did cool it as well cus hell it was seriously burning and had got my voice as well.
Glad your boss has at last stopped leaning on you! He never should have... hey you reckon you and I can learn to be assertive yet (((( )))) and a cuppa xx
Hi Lynn she had me in with the jabs, I did the first one and she doesn't want to see me again...... I really am ok to inject and well I could hardly have bulked at doing my own eh?!
They have scrapped all but the 2 week rule re how long to get tested..... bad hospitals such as T must be so pleased........ One day i am just going to use its name I am so disillusioned with the care we don't get
I see the rumo on wens and you know what..... going to push a bit re this palliative care thing.... up country I would be given a chance of more treatment first..... Hope your doing ok and must send you some pics of Slurps.... xx
Hi I First a ((((((((((( )))))))))))) my friend. I really hope your ok and well this test is so needed for me and I am so glad that its being done fast cus I going up the wall and across the ceiling.....
Another ((((( ))))) and Sid is on his way... 2nd class cus that's what he deserves....
He is bringing a packet of stuffing and some more boil in the bag veg If he but knew... he might behave better xx
HI Poppy, Barbara and Toni,
Just realized how long this is getting....
Glitter girl I really hope your lad is ok now? I am so with you over needing to be able to wake cus of the employers and well pregabalin is also a reasonable good one for easing up the muscles I think? They tell me I don't need the ampi's cus I am on the 300 pregabs.... Its hard isn't it? You do need some help to relax flower... would you be able to do the relaxation thing when you get into bed? It can help. xx
Barbara good eh?! I know your going to come with as well hey this one said they will give me a bit of sedation cus of having to move my neck so T is just cruel xx
Hi Toni it would have been too long but am now happy its not the worst..... I will know there and then to some degree. My money is on GORD though I lost Hope and she was the bookie..... Slurps and Haz have got one running but be careful cus they really wont pay out xx
Hi Joan its eased a bit thankfully and even got a bit of decent sleep. The new tablets have really helped to calm it down so that's good eh?
You up for the chicken house flower? xx

Hi Cris,
