3dogs I really wish there was something we all could do to help as you know we would if we could. Its awful watching a loved one in pain and not being able to stop the hurt. If you need to cry then let it all out x 11+ers are here for you with lots of hugs and tissues x0

I don't want to log out without a short post but I'm not feeling too clever so I shall save my list for tomorrow
I just had to send the biggest cuddles and love to 3Dogs, karen3112, FloFlo, Tinyshoes, celebrate, Red Balloon, fudge2 and flowerclipper who are all having such a horrid time as I'm sure are others who haven't disclosed. I am so incredibly sorry to read of your suffering and can only hope, sincerely, that tomorrow brings with it a little sunshine and happiness that lifts some weight off your heavy shoulders.
A special night night to all the Elite angels :Axxxxx
and I can't log off without saying the biggest thank you to bensonsmum, your enormously generous and kind words brought tears to my eyes. I really can't think why anyone would think so much of little old me but I am truly honoured. You are wonderful for making me feel so special and appreciated. THANK YOU so much :Axxxx'There are people who have money and people who are rich' :heart2: Coco Chanel0 -

xxx:AMr 3Dogs started the day ok. Alarm went off at 8 am and he got up about 8.30 to have shave and shower. However he couldn't manage a shave as he couldn't stand and lean over the basin long enough. He did have a shower, but came back into the bedroom feeling rotten and in pain. I did our breakfast cereal and he could only eat half. I gave him his morning meds including the new slow release morphine and he went back to bed. After a half hour he was still in pain so I gave him some orimorph and he tried to get some rest
He slept on and off but the pain remained, and he had his lunch-time meds and orimorph and slept a bit more. I went out to take a king size mattress to the tip - you should have seen me getting that out of the house, to the car, and into the back of the car :eek: You would have laughed, and cried, at the struggle I had but I did it and now it is gone :j. I then called at Tosco as my disabled neighbour had asked if I could get a couple of bits and when I got home, I found that the doctor had tried to ring me about 10 minutes before I got in. It was pointless trying to ring back as he would have just been trying between appointments. I did think he may ring later but he didn't, so will have to wait until he rings or comes tomorrow
I have just settled Alan in bed - he has had all his meds today and his last orimorph but is in agony with the sharp pain in his right side if he moves so much as an inch. There is nothing more I can give him or do for him, except try to make him comfy, and I am sitting here in tears typing this as I feel so useless and he is in such pain
I will have to ring the surgery first thing and ask the doc to ring as soon as possible. He did prescribe 10mg and 15 mg but told him to take the 10 mg to see if that is enough, but it looks like he needs the stronger dose ...... and I think I will give him that in the morning
So I've done no catching up today - I may do a little now but wwill be in bed soon so will say goodnight now and hope that tomorrow brings a better day0 -
Night all of to be see if i can get some sleep cuddles to everyone who needs them and thinking about you all hope we get something good tommorow lol will i ever not want a glinch0

Hiya peeps
I had a smashing little trip to T's last night on my way to work. I had 8 MAM coupons and I actually managed to use 'em all in conjuntion with a better value coupon. First I bought 4 packs of mam (2 turkey, 2 chunky boiled bacon )with a couple of other things, the guy just scanned them without inspecting And I also gave him a Better value coupon for £1 off when you spend £3 on pre packed cooked meats and pate and it worked ! So 4 mam's for £1. In theory I could have used 2 better value coupons
At the bottom of the packing area on his till I spotted a cash receipt with 42 points on it which had been sitting there for 5 hours and which I tidied up. Also got some rolo and milky bar desserts on special for £1 a pack and used 'better value'coupon 50p off £2 spend on 'pot deserts'
Went back to the car, spotted a till spit on the floor £1 off extra fill walkers 6 pack crisps and another receipt with 73 points on it.
So went back in store and got another 4 mam's ( 1 chunky cooked bacon 3 sliced sausage )for a £1 and the crisps for 99p and some whoopsied milk smoothies (60p) bread 7p, raspberries 50p and cucumber halves 11p
Just like to say thanks for giving me the courage to womble. A lady was looking at me when I picked up the crisps coupon and I didn't give a s**tStill virtually alcohol free since 4/1/15. (10 Xmas/ New Year/Birthday drinks)
