**Notice To Newcomers ~ Re: Trolls ~ part 9!**

IF

A new page time for one of these x




Over the last few weeks we have had a number of "troll" attacks on the boards.

What is a Troll?
A troll is a person that posts deliberately provocative, nasty or hurtful comments on threads. They may be a person with no previous connection to the board or someone that has created a pseudonym to get their point made. If you should get such a comment made on any thread you post, asking for help and advice, please realise this comment is not directed at you personally so please ignore these nasty comments and continue to post here as normal because the majority of us really are a lovely bunch – ooops, modesty!

What should I do if I get a comment made on my thread?
Firstly do not respond to the comment as this is invariably what the troll wants. So to get rid of the offending post, at the bottom of the post towards the right hand side you’ll see a red "Warning" triangle within a blue “Abuse” icon, as shown below:

Click the icon and then "send" the message which will inform the abuse team of the post, who will then review its content and deal with it as appropriate; sometimes even deleting the troll by making their status PPR’d (Posting Privileges Removed). Remember, this site is an asset to so many people, especially those that feels like their world is falling in around them. There is a wealth of knowledgeable people here all willing to help, whatever you do, do not let the comments of one silly individual deter you from availing yourself of the knowledge base that is on offer here.

PLEASE DO NOT LEAVE THE FORUM

It is testament to the work that Martin has done and continues to do that so many people give their time, knowledge and experience freely to others; without judgement, to lift people out of the depths of their debt crisis


PLEASE DO NOT LET THE ACTIONS OF THE MINORITY RUIN THAT

A Bump up the page from Red

3Dogs

Hello? I'm here? Still up at Mam's and she is still in hospital but at least now I have normal internet access via P-A-Y-G dongle

Whem Mam went in on 19th October, she had fallen back onto the bad with head hanging over bottom of bed, having been sick with 'coffee grounds' vomit. When my brother found her and sat her up she continued being sick like that. Taken in ambulance to hospital - ddue to her age she was given several tests for risk of falling, mobility, swallowing, etc - she failed the swallowing test (but would you when asked to drink water with lots of thickener in - she doesn't like plain water and doesn't like the thickener) so she was put on NBM (nil by mouth). It was only after about 4 days that they put a saline drip on her for fluids when family repeatedly said she was getting dehydrated. After saying at first she had a unrinary infection, then a chest infection, then a bowel infection, she had 3 lots of antibiotics straight after each other, via the drip. Eventually, when we repeatedly asked about lack of nourishment, they attempted a feed tube down through her nose on 27th October which she pulled out before it got used. Late on the afternoon of the 28th they fitted the tube and got her x-rayed to check positioning and started the tube feed (while we were there at 7 pm visiting). The tube feed was to last for 4 days over the weekend, but Mam pulled the tube out again that evening at 11 pm'ish, and they decided not to try again. With it being the weekend, nothing moved forward so that weekend was spent with family feeding her when they weren't looking - she ate soup and mooler-rice/yoghurts with no problem from a spoon from us. I then saw the doctor on 1st Nov morning who agreed to go forward with comfort soft feeding, so we were able to feed her soup, yoghurts, etc openly which was a lot easier.

Must go now as my sister and my great-neices have arrived

Do you want to say hello to my friends?
