Can I be the third to hope your DH is OK and you have gone out to paint the town red or even a little bit pinkish.
Have a good weekend honey
Enjoy your ramble tomorrow

Hope all was ok with DH. Never ever hesitate with headaches and confusion - have far too much bad experience of that with my mum and Mr SA - I can't stress this enough.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)0

Hope DH is okay and you've managed to get out and have a good night x“Once you hit rock bottom, that's where you perfectly stand; That's your chance of restarting, but restarting the way.”0

Thanks all for asking after DH
.
I didn't go out in the end because we're just back from the hospital :eek: The doctor said DH should go because of his diabetes, high blood pressure etc. In case it was an TIA.
He's had blood tests, heart scan, CT scan etc and all seems well so far. He has to go back on Monday for an MRI scan.
The doctor emphasised that it's all just a precaution because of DH being in a high risk group. She thinks it was probably a migraine with aura. All the nurses and the doctor were really lovely, but we're glad to get home.
DH told me before we went to the hospital to still go out with my friends :rotfl: But I said I wasn't going to let him go to the hopital on his own and I wouldn't enjoy it because I would worry about him.
I'm glad that DH seems to be okay (hopefully) but he seems to realise that he needs to take more care of himself and take his tablets more regularly.Finally Debt Free After 34 Years, But Still Need to Live Frugally

Glad everything seems OK so far Hairy, and sending positive vibes that all is well with the scan on Monday. (((hugs ))) to you both XXI Believe.....
That it isn't always enough, to be forgiven by others.
Sometimes, you have to learn to forgive yourself.
Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery
Today is a gift. That's why it is called the present.
happiness isn't achieved by getting extra things,
but by getting rid of the things that make you unhappy0
