boddy could you be there at one of her mealtimes and offer to help her with her food - or would they chcuk you out - you mught at least get to see what she is getting.
hex we are always here to support you hun - you are in a difficult position but dont let it come between you and DH (((hugs)))
Dusty :rotfl::T you always make me laugh when you get on to the subject of your fetish with the bins - if you are not filling someone else's you are running and swapping bins before the bin men get there:rotfl:
tiredanddesperate i know exactly what you mean - i wear a sleep mask too - can you tape the hose to stop the leak? how long will you have to wait? You should try hugs - i didnt do them much until about 7 years ago and now I think they are great!!

Toots, I have taped it - about 4 times now. The first 8 inches have no flexibility now, there's that much tape on it . And I found another split last night at the other end, so that now has tape on it!

I might as well tape the lot. It's like a flexible corrugated see-through pipe and it's nowhere near as good as the last pipe I had. There was nothing wrong with that pipe, they only changed it when they changed my last mask (because that had a split).......

I've got an answer phone message now, the new pipe is in, so I need to arrange when I can collect it and then hopefully, I'll be back to half-decent sleep. Trouble is, even with a decent fit etc, I still don't sleep brilliant. The last test I had showed a slight improvement using the machine, but still dodgy.

At least I don't fall asleep mid-sentence now like I used .....zzzzzzzz :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Notso

toottifrootti

notso the semi-clear ones I think are only for use in the ward - temporary use! maybe you need to try another mask again - I have had atleast 4 different ones - The one I have now is good and my air loss in the night is below acceptable levels so thats good and I am now only stopping breathing about 7 times in an hour (it was 32!) dont give in keep pestering them until you get a decent fit - we all need a reasonable nights sleep to function.

ETA ask for a spare so that you dont get caught again - I have a spare one which i was going to send if you were having to wait a while

I feel like just giving up on it all.

Evening folks.

Only just been able to catch up with the thread, as I've been so busy today. It might not look a lot, but trust me, with the dearth of spoons in the Wolf's Lair, it's left me completely cream crackered.

So, mega-apologies for not doing individual messages today, but I'm just waaay too tired.

Here's a bucketful of ((((HUGS)))) - help yourselves.:o

Thursday ~ Bathroom and WC
Level One
Declutter and mop floors! Done (Mr LW)
Scrub the bath/shower/basins/toilets/bidets etc.. don't forget the outside of the loo and under the scanky rim.. it gets naaaaaasty under there!!.. oh, and don't forget the top of the cistern! Done; Mr LW had a blitz on the loo limescale during his lunch break. (he's working from home today)
Level Two
Sling shower curtain/bathmats in the wash and scrub down the slimy tiles! Mats OK; shower screen and tiles done alongside porcelain.
Wash away any mouldy black bits and furry webs Done

In the nicest possible sense don't be daft. We all have days like that and you have more excuse than me! Get done what you can - celebrate what you have done instead of feeling guilty about what you haven't.

Greenbee I have had enough rather nice sunday times15% red to put the boys uniforms in the DW!
