Thanks should hear next week, it seems now that my mums stepdad who is 90 has bowel cancer , no bleeding just a change in bowel habits and general feeling of being unwell he has been farming up until now but only partime on his old farm now his sons , he stopped eating recently too so i hope they dont let him suffer and leave his dignity intact for the rest of his time very sad xx

I will be thinking of you and hopefully your parents get the bungalow

xxxx

Hi annie im hoping i will hear today if not will ring them, it would be so ideal, but i guess who ever gets it it will be ideal for them too fingers crossed xx

Hi Puss,

I hope your parents are able to get that bungalow you bid on. How long will it take before you hear about it? It will be so much easier for you all to be close to each other.


Love Annie

hi puss. thats better and obviously s dad will be happier. are you bidding to buy the bungalow on line or is it at an auction? you must be quite excited, wish you luck. come back and tell us if you get it. that would be lovely for all of you to be near one another and not have to travel miles.
are you feeling better today puss?
take care florencex

Hello managed to get hold of consultant and they have brought the date forward till 25th which is better and dad seems more settled, ive just bid on a bungalow for them near us so fingers crossed.
How are you all ? xx

Thanks florence i spoke to his doctor today as dads tube is leaking but didnt think to ask, we go back on the 25th aug so i will be asking then providing mum and dad agree, they had him down for 31st of aug but that is to far away luckily they changed it but he will be at end of list all these aneasthetics cant be doing him any good either xx
hope your ok florence xxx

hi puss, sorry to hear you were not well yourself, hope you will feel better soon. as for missing the chemo and will it make a difference, im afraid the only person who can tell you would be the oncologist.he would have all the test results, biopsy results etc and can make a prognosis based on these. its not something you can generalize on as each persons chemo treatment is tailored to the individual.as you were in bed, are you able to speak to the doctor on the phone or someone from his department to clarify s dads position?
hope they get him sorted soon and back on track with treatment.

take care

Hi annie good news about your levells hope the pain in lung has stopped and your ok xxxx
dad went to have tube stretched it wasa far to painfull to be done by local aneasthetic so they arranged for him to go in wed he did that , through the operation they called mum and specky ( sadly i was ill in bed) and said the hole in his bladder had started closing around the tube preventing urine passing out causing inflamation and soreness, so they have fitted him with a bag, in 12 days time he will have that removed and go back to a tube and valve, so they have postponed his chemo untill that is done, could anyone tell me by postponing his chemo 3 times since may we are now in august are they convined they will still get the cancer or are they thinking that the cancer cannot be cured so it dont matter, i couldnt ask these questions as i was to ill to go love to everyone xxxxx

Just got home from hospital. Leukaemia levels have dropped again which is good news. Have got a pain in my right lung since last night that I have to monitor, if it doesn't go away have to go back to hospital for investigation of possible clots on lung.

off in the morning with dad for op and confirmation of the weeks of chemo starting xx

Daff. isnt it magic that they can do these tests now. A few years ago any test would have been too late. Let us hope that it is not too extreme this time, its time you had some luck in your life. PM me if you want to let off steam about it all.

annie, so pleased that you oh is being kinder towards you and is at least talking about what is stressing him. that in turn will help you. good luck for you job, fingers crossed
take care florencexx

Thankyou florence xxxx

Annie good luck with your results will be thinking off you, and im really pleased oh has been helping you really good to hear xxxxx

Daff, so sorry to hear your news. My thoughts will be with you and I will cross everything and pray for you that you will beat this. Hugs to you.

I am, emotionally, feeling a little better. OH has snapped out of his mood, has apologised and is now talking about the cause of his moods. He is stressing and is very worried about our financial situation. It seems to be dominating all of his thoughts. He didn't sleep last night with worry, thats what he told me this morning. I wouldn't have had a clue as I slept right through : ) Still feel as though I have been awake all night though.

I am suffering a bit with bone pain today so have had some codeine and can feel that is starting to work now.

Had a job interview yesterday which I think went ok, just have to wait to hear back from them. I think if I can get away from my current working environment I will be able to rid myself of some of the stress I have been suffering.

I have an appointment on thursday (2.15pm) for a checkup at the hospital. Had a blood test the other week, so it will be to get the results of that. If levels have gone up again could possibly be having bone marrow test.

Am still waiting on the results of my biopsy from the colposcopy clinic. Hopefully will have the results this week.

I am thinking of you all constantly and wish that one day I can meet you all for hugs and a chat : )

Florence, OH cooked dinner for me the last 2 nites, it felt nice to have been spoiled for a change :-) (((((hugs)))))

Love
Annie
