Butterfly_Brain

Thank You all for your kind wishes :A:A:A:A
I don't think I will be getting another one yet and he was with us for 20months after we got him from the adoption centre in pets at home so we didn't know how old he was. It just makes it worse that it was on the anniversary of Mum's death.

Evening all

big ((((((((hugs)))))))) to Lou and Butterflybrain

Late posting for me. Had busy day with work kids, took them to the seaside for an ice cream as it's the last day they will all be together as 5 are off to college next week. They all enjoyed. Finished early as had Drs appts etc.

Had my 3rd B12 jab, nice nurse this time However Dr can't refer me to the specialist I found unless I want to go private I'm going to think it over as luckily I'm feeling much better now, not been dizzy in past 24 hours . After that I had acupuncture, think it's really helping the vertigo. She thinks I only need one more session and then the odd top-up.

And then after all that I popped to my parents and took my Dad out for dinner to say thanks for all the help he's given me over last few weeks when I've been ill (my Mum is away, I wasn't excluding her!!!)

OS wise - ummmm......flatmate has put DW on, does that count?! :rotfl:

Have a good evening all

bramble, I'm here, so sorry to hear about your grandad, sending hugs, xx

Thanks ruby,

I'm just sat here with a beer, i don't know what to do with myself, - just made fajitas so keep my mind occupied, don't really want to eat them, just needed to do something.

I know that he's in the best place possible to have a heart attack, but he felt nothing before it happened and just thinking about it and how worried my gran must be is breaking my heart.

OH has been lovely but he's miles away and has to be at work at 6am and is probably feeling really useless as it is.

oh and Butterfly brain - sorry for your loss - not just a hamster, part of the family x x

redruby

there is really nothing you can do right now, maybe you can go up over the weekend ?

Try and eat a little something, you need to keep your strength up, xx

Is he still in hospital ? if so he really is in the best place to get him some help xx

bramble1

I'm going to see about getting a flight up on monday or tuesday, i don't want us all to rush to his bedside the same day because that will make my grandad panic everyone's gone to say goodbye to him - if possible i'll go up a day or two after my mum and sister so it doesn't seem that way.... the drs are giving us an update at midnight, so will see what happens then

Bramble so sory to hear that, but you're right, at least he was in the right place for it to happen, if it had to. Youhavent said where in Scotland, but if I can be any help at all, let me know. Lifts to/ from airport, a bed, anything. Xxx

Butterfly brain hugs for you too, I would be beartbrokentoo, a pet is a pet no matter what size it is. X
