    Hello again all, Sealed Potters! Thank you all so very much indeed for your really touching messages and wishes, we so appreciate them and it's so lovely to have you caring for us all. The cold our DD had has gone, but the vision in her left eye still hasn't returned. DD had been told that each time it went it will return in time, but leave more lesions, hence lessening her vision, but the Specialist at the hospital eye clinic told her last week that if it didn't return within 3 months that it wouldn't return at all!! Thanks to those who suggested contacting the MS Society, DD has done so as have we, they're immensely helpful and kind and have had suggestions to help. DD has been allocated an MS Nurse by the Neuro and she sees her tomorrow, in a chat on the phone she said she sounded a lovely person, a real blessing! Thank you all for your kindness, it meant so much reading through your lovely messages just now, they're all so touching.

    GET WELL SOON
    to all those of you who aren't having a healthy time.


    It's good to know your back pain is better now, Helen, look after it but keep mobile.

    sue I am so sorry to hear the news for your DD and for your family. My DDs GFs mum has MS and although she copes well with it, there are good days and bad . Thinking of you all. DH had his assessment at the hospital today and has an appointment tomorrow morning for his first treatment. We are not quite sure how many appointments he will need until he has been tomorrow The list of things he has to avoid is as long as your arm so it will be a bit of trial and error to find out what makes him worse. He is to cut down on caffeine so he is in mourning ATM :):)

    Thank you so much, scotmumof3, I wish the same for your DDs GFs mum as I do for our dear girl, actually our DD's days sound much as hers do, she copes but with the good and bad days. I really do hope your DH's appointment went well and in time it all works for him and he will feel so much better. Isn't it amazing the foods etc that can have quite an effect on our conditions! Tell him that the lack of coffee will at least do him good...or not do anymore harm, same with anything else he needs to leave off. Very best wishes to you all. :grinheart

    Bless you for your lovely words, Lynne, especially the lighting of the candle, it means a great deal to us as it's the same as we do at such times. x I hope your foot is improving bit by bit and that you're being patient with it. Best wishes to you too. BTW, thanks a lot for sorting out Save Dosh, well put and advised! :D


    Well done in getting things sorted, Save Dosh, you're getting there and won't need the naughty chair! :D

    I hope everyone has a great day and remember to keep watching the group while they're out today for any road kill (lose change) you may come across for the pot.

    Hi Azzzaa, now I may be wrong in thinking that you're not yet a member of our SPC, but I've just searched for your name on the list and can't find it?

    So many thanks to you all, Lynsey, Kerry, Rosy, Ruth, Modesty, dreamingofmoney, 32b3, Vicky and wealthygirl, your lovely words are so meaningful and very, very touching.


    Enjoy your evening and have a lovely Tuesday, Potters, and do keep on saving!

    Hope all goes well with the visit the morrow - it's so good to have some support at times like this and wishing your DD and yourselves all the best.


    TY - my foot is slowly mending. Still only half speed and am making sure I don't stay on it too long at any one time, putting it up when I can. BTW - I'm a happy deputy ;)


    Woop - woop ! pay back for cleaning under the settee cushions of 5p - potted :rotfl:

    Morning Everyone :)


    Sue....I hope the Appointment for your DD goes well tomorrow....and that she gets a wealth of information and help...xXx


    Have a VERY rough 24 hours.....been having flashbacks and a Panic Attack regarding a Trauma from a couple of Years ago....Normally it's okay but something my Supervisor said yesterday just triggered it accidentally....Came home and was shivering and in floods of tears....spent the night trying to sleep and stay warm....


    And then had a Nightmare on top of that!! :(


    Oh well....Onwards and Upwards!! Potting has stalled a little for me at the moment....but I managed to Pot 30p yesterday...better than nothing...and I'd rather only Pot what I can afford than have to split open my Pot!!


    *Hugs* to Everyone that needs them...Chat to you all soon xXx :)

    Morning all.

    Sue - hope all goes well with that appointment today. We're all here to support you.

    Helen - take care, potting can wait, getting yourself back on track is the main thing.

    Potted 2 x £2 coins and 2 x £1 coins to start the week. £9 minimum to find by the weekend.

    A bit windy here today, so washing time.
