    Morning D friends, Didn't sleep much even though I put 2 pillows where DH should have been, tried to fool myself.

    Have phoned and spoke to Ben, the staff did obs every 2 hrs so he didn't get much rest. He will have the brain scan today. Drs, 4 of them, have seen him and will deceide what to do when they have the results. I am going to see him and will prob be there all day, would sleep there if I could.

    DD1&2 are going to visit this afternoon. Not much else to say really, not much OSing today.

    I've read through posts and want to thank all of you for your support and kind wishes, I don't feel I'm going through this nightmare on my own, Bless you all.

    Sorry if I seem to have taken over this thread.

    JOANNASMUM, I hope your DH will soon be home.

    MUMMYSAVER, I hope the scum that attacked DF's Sis get sent down. My DGD is very nervous after her attack and doesn't want to go out. ((hugs))

    PENPIN, SMOKY, MRS MIX AND ALL, ((((((((hUGS))))))))))
  • Hi All ..

  • Beth - I'm so pleased that you have managed to speak to Ben, it must be a relief to have been able to hear his voice. I hope everything is okay today and that the results are all good ones. Hugs to you all, and some extras to your dd and her bump as well. Thanks for the thoughts about my friend's sis, I'm not surprised your dgd is nervous, df's sis wouldn't leave the house for about a week, then she came out briefly with df to say hello at work, but wouldn't go anywhere at all unaccompanied, and then would only trust one of her brothers to take her anywhere or her mum. She went away to Mauritius to stay with family for 6 weeks, and tbh it did her the world of good to just get away. Now she is back and is stll very nervous about going anywhere and always ensures she is with someone, it is terrible as she's only 19 and should be getting out and about and enjoying herself.

    Anyway, I have sent you a pm xx



    Biff - Happy Birthday, have a super day xx

    Giffas - hello and welcome!

    Mrs Mix and Disbiff, Happy Birthday to you both :bdaycake: :bdaycake:

    Beth, sorry to hear that you didn't get much sleep. I'm glad that you were able to speak to Ben this morning and I hope the results from the brain scan will be postive. Take care of yourself and daughters.

    Joannasmum, sending hugs to you and your dd. I hope that now he's been moved you will get some news about your dh soon.

  • Happy Birthday Pam And Biff :bdaycake: :bdaycake: Hope you both have lovely days.
    Hope you get some more sleep Beth :kiss:
    Thinking of you and your OH Joannasmum. x
    Penny Pincher, Of course Aussie didn't mean to upset you. :confused: She is asking you to look at things from a different angle, that's all. How do your helpers think they can get away with shirking off early? DOn't they realise you have cctv watching them? :confused:
    Nice to see you posting Biff..... I remember you being on before and telling us all those stories about your husband. ;) Welcome Giffas by the way :hello: ;):p :d

    Have spent far too long on here today. Need to go and make a fish pie for tea and get a load of washing on the line. Bathroom needs cleaned and I wante to spend some time in the garden. Managed to get 6 punnets of strawberries reduced to 10p last night in Tesco's so jam making is on the agenda for some stage today.

    Bye for now

    Haribo x

    What's up with the smiles? People will be taking me the wrong way!!!

    Hi everyone.

    Beth - I'm so glad you have managed to talk to Ben. I hope the results of the scans are good and that they can start the treatment today. (((Hugs))) to you and him and PLEASE take care of yourself, too, and get as much as rest as you can, difficult though it must be. He needs you to be strong and well. You haven't 'hijacked' the thread so please don't think you have - we're all only too glad to listen. We're here for you.

    Smoky - it's good to hear from you. (((Hugs))) to you and the LOs.

    Well, I'd better get on. At least the sun is shining - I can't quite believe it; it's lovely today.

    KathyXX
