Hey Taxi, just popped in for a catch up, hope you are feeling ok. Dinner sounds like it was fun.

Glad insurance companies are being efficientx x x x x

Hi Taxi (and friends!),
Great news about the insurance and am glad you've had a good day - hmm, quite fancy a girly day myself. I live in a houseful of men (well OH and 2 teenage sons and their mates) and it's great fun but time to email old workmates I think...

That sounds like a good idea....how about arranging something with your mates?

Those positive thoughts and deeds are just the things you should be doing Taxi - new clothes and hair and little things but those little things are the things that get you through the big things in life - just like you're facing now.

I'm glad the insurance is paying out without any hassle. As others have said take advantage of the offers of help. A friend brought me lunch round every day for several weeks when I came out of hospital - I'd initially said 'no' as I wasn't up to eating much at the time and didn't want to be a bother - she'd persuaded me to let her. It wasn't a big task - but it made her feel useful and my dh didn't worry as he had to go to work and leave me alone - I have never forgotten her kindness and in a funny way that simple task brought us so much closer. It really is the small things that makes a difference in life.

I was at your neck of the woods last weekend in the sunshine - I'm still recovering from my walk in the heat - we walked from the Windmill at St Annes to pier at Lytham (or is it the other way round can never remember!!) and back - then walked along the sea front at Bispham and sat and ate fish and chips watching the sea - so I have been to bed early every night since. I think of you now every time I go to Blackpool (don't often go to centre of Blackers but visit either end often)

Positive thoughts heading your way. I'm going to Cornwall on Sunday for 2 weeks so won't be able to post or catch up - but you will be in my thoughts. I'll catch up when I get back.

Take each minute as it comes - there is no right or wrong way to feel - it won't feel like it now but this can be beaten. Big hugs

Thanks Milann...have a great holiday as well xxx Going to book one myself as soon as I'm over this..

I am terrible at accepting help but will need to learn to accept it as I know it's going to be hard.

Next time you're over this way let me know and we can go for a coffee or something if you like...if not no bother.

That goes for anyone over this way at anytime.

Well now if you ever take a wrong left turn and end up crossing the Irish Sea, you are of course most welcome here too xxx

It's a good job that we only have the one car(taxi) as I would be all over the country otherwise...lol

Hope you don't mind me butting in Taxi,but when OH's Dad was diagnosed there was a nurse/social worker who helped with all the form filling for benifit's, is there possibly someone like that,that your nurse can put you in touch with?
