Thank you Beanie and HHD. I'm seeing it in at my Mum's this year. It's not been a great few weeks to be honest. I've practically left home and moved in with Mum, only getting back to see the family every few days, but needs must at the moment. I don't see 2021 being much better in some respects, but I'm blessed to have a very understanding and supporting hubby and we'll deal with it. Hope everybody has had a lovely Christmas. Wishing you all a Happy New Year. xx3

Hi HHD
Thank you for popping by, it was lovely to see a message Β Β
My sister came in mid Jan and spent a week with Mum to give me a break then last week I managed to move outΒ for 4 days but still came up to see her every day. On Friday I had to move back in with her again. She's exhausted and in pain and spends a lot of time in bed. I'm doing nothing more than fetching, carrying and cooking for her but some days it feels like a full time job. Depending on how she is I try to get home for a couple of hours, so far I've only managed to do that twice. Her chemo has been postponed for the second time because she's not up to having it but her GP has prescribed new medication today so I'm hoping that will help.Β
I hardly come on here these days and have no idea what anybody is up to lately, but I hope you and yours are all keeping well and the same for everybody else. xx

Glad to hear from you but sorry to hear things are still tough.
I really hope that the new medication helps.
