    onestep - castor oil may be an old wives tale, but it worked for me. At least I think so. Not a nice experience, but better than induction/emergency section IMHO.

    Not much crossed off the list, but I've
    read/done homework with DS2
    made and decluttered tea, and cleared away afterwards
    bathed DS2
    done research for DH's regimental reunion (this year and next :beer:)
    33 minutes wii fit (aerobic stuff; didn't think I was going to make it round that island, but I did :T)

    Last cuppa, then off to bed for a bit of a read. Hoping not to lie in again in the morning, so I can get a bit more done before dropping DS2 off at school. :o

    Night all xxx

    Why would you be banned, you're points are valid and from the heart. You've had the courage to say what a lot have been thinking, people simply don't know what to do when Piggers posts about her severe and very worrying health problems and then refuses to actually see anyone about them.

    It's like reading about someone constantly getting battered by their partner but not actually taking any support or advice to get away.

    Very distressing.

    Thank you Soappie. xxx

    As Triker has said Soappie you shouldn't be banned we are all worried about her and squeak you have got the courage to speak out.
