    I am really sorry to hear about poor Grommie Wol, I am sure he had the best life a piggie could ever wish for with you.

    I am also saddened to hear of the ordeal at the vets, that must have been so traumatic:(

    Much love and hugs sent from me :grouphug:
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:

    Thanx everyone for your kind sentiments :A

    Not sure how I got through today on 3 hrs sleep but parents breakfasted - then nice visit to best rose grower in southeast :beer:and drinking coffee on the balcony over the rose gardens...then lunch at mine and trip back to catch train.:cool:

    They are back home safely :T:T - and enjoyed the weekend (despite the piggie drama of last night) and are impressed with all the building work (both inside this year and last year's outside work).

    (ahem.......My mum was also really impressed with the top totty tree surgeons last year :D)

    Lovely chats with Smashed and Numpty today - thanx both :A:A:A

    So now I am numb..(and very drained) ..have done sweet FA this pm/eve and just vegetated..(still trying to finish watching Muppets in Space :rotfl:)......and Grommie is sitting in the vets fridge...and I desperately want him here with me tonight.......I am already badly missing my little laddie :(:(

    Off to cuddle Beechie and thence to bed as knackered.

    xxxxx

    Edit: I hate it when you are so "full" and need to sob your heart out............... but can;t :mad::(

    Took courage in both hands tonight and rung vets....(ahem after having a good wail :o)

    ..Instructed them that there will be no PM on Grommie before I have spoken to his normal vets. They're fine on that and made a note for tomorrow morning

    Feeling a miniscule amount better
    I want to do right by my boy.....if the events of last night mean nothing useful will be gained from PM - then I want hin back...NOW!!!!




    Off to bawl and sleep
