Hi folks.
I wondered if you would be kind enough to jump in Janet's pocket in the morning.
She's got bursitis in her hip, never had anything like that before and is having the hip injected by the GP.. She's a tough cookie and I know she'll be fine but she's not used to things such as this..
Having spoken to her and described what the hip pain I've had for a few weeks it sounds like I could have similar. I just put it down to deferred pain or arthur. It's tender to the touch though so I'll mention it next time I go.

Today hasn't been great, I found out that my Uncle died today, was told it happened last night but we went to see my Aunty this evening and he had a massive heart attack this afternoon at home, my poor Aunty was trying to save him and shouting for help but there was nobody around.. She's in dreadful shock.. Not surprising though. He was 73 nine days ago. Last saturday was seventeen yrs since my Dad died too... That's the two eldest brothers gone..
Sorry, I'm rambling.. It's been a crap day.

    Hi Tony,

    I have been thinking of you this evening and so wish life would stop kicking you.

    Bless your heat it will have triggered your Dad as well. I wish I could give you both a real hug but a massive shoulder and ((((( ))))) to you both are on their way through the either.

    Janet I so hope it will go well and work well for you. You rest up when you get home and get Ra to look after you both.

    Got everything crossed and we will all jump in your pocket in the morning.. that me, the Employers and to Tony's horror the lodgers ... we do bring out own hay and e do clean up after we leave.

    You take it easy Janet and really hope it will work for you.

    Hugs to you both and a huge cuddle for Ra xx

    Hi Tony, I'm really sorry to hear about your uncle, that's very sad. I hope your poor Aunt will be ok, lots of cyber hugs to her.

    Good luck to Mrs Tony, I'm sure you will be well looked after by Tony but I shall be in your pocket anyway with a nice cuppa for afterwards.

    thanks again everyone.
    Janet had the injection, was a tad sore when he hot the right spot.. It's done now, she's going to rest for today, Doc said that should be ok as it wasn't into the joint so should be enough time.
    Really hope it works well as she's been suffering a while with it.

    Now I'm heading back there for my bloods done.

    Thanks Joan :wink:
    Janet said that the anesthetic is starting to wear off and it's aching somewhat. She's resting up like a good girl though.. Lol
    As am I, I got run over by the pain drain train again :shock: Had to sleep.. I was out for the count.. I hope Janet hasn't been jumping up and down our doing the conga whilst I slept :?

    Hi Tony,
    Sorry to be late for Janet's pocket duties. I'm glad that it went ok and that it's all over now.
    I am really sorry about your uncle. It must be so hard for your aunt to loose her husband after so many years and also hard for you to loose your dad first and now his brother.
    My thoughts are with you.
    Take care Tony and Janet.
    Love,
