Hi Ann, thanks for asking.
Eddie is on week 5 now so 1 more week and hopefully we will be seeing some changes...........they should be putting his brace on and standing him up then and then they should be able to tell us more, poor Ed can't wait, he is so bored but l did tell him not to worry l will save all the ironing for him, lol.
My mum is still in quite a bit of pain but she has eased off the tablets as they are making her sleepy and she does like to be awake during the day, she did tell me the cancer nurse is due to visit in the next couple of days so hopefully something can be sorted.
I am still keeping positive thoughts and prayers for Eddie and my mum.
Thanks once again for all your support that l have been given on this thread, and can l wish you all a very happy and healthy new year, xx

((hugs)) from me too xxxx

sending you both hugs,
xxxx

Looking in to see if there is any further report. Still thinking of Eddie and Mummo's Mum

Glad Eddie is making progress, albeit slow.
Patience is a virtue lol Plenty of that going to needed to get through this, but it will be worth it.

Morning Mummo. Just catching up with the threads and glad to hear Eddie has been moved to a more positive environment, I'm sure that will help his recovery. You have such a lot to deal with at the moment, I do hope you are taking care of yourself. BCXX

Just trying to catch up now son and wife have gone - well not really but that is another story !!! Glad to hear Eddie is making good progress and has now been moved to a cheerful ward. Sorry your Christmas was not the one you planned Mummo - but hey just think of the good one you will have when Eddie is back home.
Take care both
Love Mary xx

Sorry to hear Christmas wasn't good for you Mummo,but pleased to learn your Eddie is improving and in good company.
Best wishes to your mum

Its good to hear Eddie is continuing to improve & being on a cheery ward should also help with his recovery.

I didn't realise your mum is also so poorly.

(((((((((hugs)))))))))))

I am glad to catch up with the news and see that in the main, things are going well. I hope the better company in the new ward will help Eddie pass the time more happily and help him forget the pain a bit, if he can have a laugh.

I had that happen to me with the carpet, mine had been stored for months, and was due to be laid the day before my son was due to be born. When the men turned up it was completely the wrong colour carpet so they had to reorder for the next day. I got some lads I knew to come in and make sure all the floorboards were ok as I had been modernising the house all through my pregnancy and they managed to knock a nail through a water pipe so water was dripping down the side of the boiler all over my newly decorated kitchen! That was fun, not, having to get it all fixed before the carpet company returned the next day with the correct colour carpet.
Son arrived the day after he was due which was just as well lol

Sorry your Christmas wasn't good but hope the one you have when Eddie gets out of hospital will be very special. I hope your Mum's meds will be adjusted so she feels ok.

Do take care of yourself - don't want you coming down with anything while you are under such stress.

Dear Mummo, so sorry I did not know about Ed's accident, although you did mention he was in hospital via a PM I did not ask why and should have.

Sometimes I miss threads due to them not being on the first or second page, when the threads are busy. Then again I do miss loads being in different time zone.

So, Ed get better soon and get home to Mummo, best wishes.

Nice for Eddie to be in a more cheerful ward, it will be better if he is with others who can keep his spirits up. I can imagine you had a not very nice Christmas but 'onwards and upwards' now we hope.

I am sorry your Mum is not too good, I hope they can get her medication sorted as it sounds as if the tablets are a bit strong if she is sleeping all the time, as long as they control the pain though.

Thinking of you all

xx Keep your chin up Mummo hon.

You've been a tower of strength to Eddie and everyone else.

You just keep making sure you're ok too eh?

MWAH xx

Mummo you're coping with so much at the moment. I do hope you continue to find the strength to deal with things.

I'm so pleased that Eddie is continuing to improve and I hope he'll be home before you know it - with a lovely new carpet to walk on:-))

I hope very much that your Mum feels better soon.

Oh Mummo! Up's and downs it seems for you.I am so pleased Eddie is doing well and you are looking forward to the New Year when you will celebrate his coming home.I didn't know your Mum is ill too,but hope she settles with her new tablets.You have an awful lot to deal with at the moment don't you.
It is such a stressful time for you but I'm sure you will keep your pecker up.
Love Jane x

Glad to read of Eddies improvement and that he will be happier with brighter people.
But so sorry to read about Mum. I will keep her in my thoughts Mummo

You too are always in my thoughts so much to cope with it does have an effect on us too.

Linda :o) XxX

Won't even tell you what a awful Christmas l had !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Went to visit Ed today and while he was eating his tea they decided to move him to another room as they had a emergency in so in the middle of pudding off he went. The ward he is in now is going to be a lot better for him as they made him feel really welcomed and they were were all talking and laughing ( better than the old men sleeping all the time,lol).
Eddie is still doing well, it will be 5 weeks on Wednesday so another week or so and hopefully they will start putting the brace on him and getting him up ...........watch this space for further updates, lol.
When l got home from the hospital tonight l had a phone call from my Brother to say my Mum can't walk today, he doesn't know if its the new tablets she on to relieve the pain from the cancer but she just wants to sleep all the time, so l spoke to her and she was feeling bad as she had stayed in her nightie and dressing gown all day but l told her not to worry, we all have days like that, lets just hope she doesn't suffer to much.
I am staying positive , l will have my Christmas when Eddie gets out of hospital and my mum will be there,
I am glad that most of you have a good Xmas and l really hope you all have the very best New Year, xxxx
