    greenbee sandy needs to get one of her family to make a big fuss if she's in lots of pain. She doesn't need to be.

    I had this conversation with Sandy yesterday.....the combination of the tumour, seizures & chemo means it's taking a while to get the pain relief sorted out, I did suggest she asks for it to be reviewed.... will see how she is shortly. x

    I'm glad you're managing to get her to discuss things. I hope it isn't too much of a strain for you. It is obviously helping her to talk to someone who understands what she is going through.

    Good luck to Diva & Natty for today

    And now I really MUST get moving or I'll never achieve anything today :o

    Oh Dusty big hugs to you and DS3. What a time you've had of it.
    Toots it sounds like you've had an amazing weekend.
    Kazm way to go....:T
    Diva, Natty i hope all goes well today, you'll be in my thoughts.

    I didn't manage to sleep well last night, i think it was just too warm. Most remember to turn the heating of early tonight.:)
    It's so wet and dull here this morning, so i'm still not sure weather to meet friend for coffee or not? I should really get on with the house, plus hubby didn't sleep too well last night so he'll be tired today.
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.

    Morning all!

    I'm off to Starbucks in a minute to have breakfast before my hairdressing appointment at 10.30. Then I'll be down to the agency this afternoon to do all of my paperwork to get me back in supply work.

    Just popping on to wish Diva good luck for her operation this morning. Hope I've not missed you, although knowing what the hospitals are like around here, you've probably been in there since 7.30. Keeping my fingers crossed that it all goes well.

    LadyL please don't tire yourself out too much. I know you want to help Sandy, as we all do, but don't neglect yourself. It will be taking a lot out of you. HUGS!

    Well I'd better be off as need to get dressed, and want to get into town before all of the fruit toast had gone! lol

    Happy flying everyone,

    sexymouse xx
    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.
