    Beanie so sorry to hear that your back is no better - wish I could suggest something to help. ((())) xx

    Oh beanie. I'm glad DS gave you a lift - but don't tell me you're still cooking for them and stuff? They should be cooking for you, surely? Well, if I was in as much pain as you are, I couldn't challenge that kind of stuff either :( and like UpsideDown Bear, I just wish I could do something to help.

    Today is the day I say goodbye to a very very dear friend.
    Currently walkingwith a zimmer.
    Looking forward to my part in the service though.
    How she dealt with the level of pain she was in I will never know.
    There is a such a big gap in my life.

    In other news DS & GF currently at my mums.

    My mum invited me to France at the last minute.
    Not able to go as funeral today & did not fancy getting winched up on to plane either!!!!

    So sorry beanie

    Hope the funeral goes as best it can and is a fitting tribute to your friend. Please try and look after yourself.

    And with regards to DS and GF, good. They were taking advantage of you and from what I saw not being very nice/appreciative of your good nature and more giving you a kick in the teeth. You deserve better than the strain on your health and finances. I hope they figure out how lucky they had it and that your mum does not pander to them. And please don't let them back without serious consideration/rules and a huge apology! xx

    Totally agree with LDL, beanie, on all counts. Sorry you couldn't take up your mum's offer to go to France, tho. And walking with a zimmer sounds awful :( I'm glad you have a part in the service to say farewell to your friend, though, that sounds lovely.

    Thinking of you ...
