thank you for your good wishes yep tomorrow is d day not only for me but also for wife which I will tell about tomorrow, I,m not very happy about it. I will update some time after hospital please take good care of yourselfs, <3 <3

I also hope that your blood test results are good so that you can begin your treatment tomorrow.

It's good that you will have an opportunity to go along to the new cancer centre, but not acceptable that the MacMillan nurses haven't been back as promised.

Positive thoughts and gentle hugs for you right now Michael, I hope you have a decent nights sleep tonight.

Hope your blood tests have proved satisfactory so that you will be able to start your chemo tomorrow. Sending my best wishes that it all goes well for you. :-)

Glad the swelling has gone down a little. Rest when you can.

What a pity the Macmillan nurses haven't contacted you yet. I guess they must be very busy in your area, but the cancer centre that is soon to open sounds as though it will be very good. My cousin attended something similar at her local hospital and found it helped her, even if it was just having a cup of tea and chatting to someone other than her OH.

Stay strong and positive. Sending lots of good wishes.

Just a hug from me. Hope you are having some quiet and peaceful times x

Hi Michael, glad to see the support stockings are helping, sending love and support as always :-) <3

thank you MRMAGOO the surport stockings seem to be doing the trick swelling down a bit today.
well still no news from McMillian after saying the would contact me with in 2 days so I don't think I will bother contacting them again. good news is there is a new cancer centre going to open at our hospital at the cost of 650.000 pounds
the building will have a lounge,counselling room McMillian nurse there every day,a health and well being roomfor aromatherephy, reilki,and other treatments, I will give it a try it opens in march I can only try it if it don't suit the nothing ventured nothing gained . pain not to bad today with tablets bearable. :-D :-D :-D

Hope your swollen feet go down in the next few days.

Keep posting Michael.

Mr M.

Michael I hope you are having a good day and your legs are more comfortable.xx

Hoping that your swollen legs have gone down overnight Michael, so that you will feel more comfortable today. Take care now. xx

Hi Michael,

Well, you had a busy time of it, glad you have more new gadgets to play with and help pass the time when you are stuck in bed or whatever. A shame that your legs swelled up but hope the surgical stockings help ease that. I often wonder why they don't make those in funky patterns or colours, they are so boring otherwise..

Have a restful day today if you can and fit that new rellie into place in your tree

Hi Michael, hope you get a good nights sleep tonight. You will enjoy your Kindle and t.v..Hope your feet are less swollen tomorrow.xx

You will have a good excuse to put your feet up Michael and watch your new TV set.

Swollen feet are very uncomfortable, so perhaps you could give your nice doctor a ring and see if he thinks you need diuretics to help with the fluid retention. I think he gave you his direct telephone number, so a little chat with him might be in order. xx

hi all I have had quite a busy day my son took us shopping wife went to do the weekly shop and my son and I went and brought a new television as a surprize for her as had the old one for 10 yrs was getting passed it the tv I mean lol. while we were there we brought a kindle each so if I have stay in the hospital for a few hours I can read a book. the down side when I got out of bed this morning I found that both my feet had swollen I have not had that for a long time so its out with the surgical socks again .they have been up all day don't understand why? I did not walk any were as I was in my wheelchair the pleasures of getting old :-D :-D :-D

Good evening Michael,

Hope you have had a restful day, or have you spent it climbing your tree? :-D Still, much better during the day to spend time pondering about the new branch of your Irish connection than it keeping you awake at night. :-)

Hope you soon have contact from the MacMillan nurses, they will be of great help to you and your family.

Best wishes

Jo <3

Hello Michael,

Sending you and yours a big hug :-).

Michael - glad to see you had a pain free night, I know exactly what you mean when you go to bed thinking about where someone fits into your tree, hope you have a really nice day.

Jim :-)

good morning liz thank you yes I hope they do I did not have a good night not due to any pain but due the the fact that I had a message about a new branch of my irish connection that was going over in my mind although I did get a few hours sleep apart from that I had a pain free night, hope you have a good day also. x

Morning Michael,

Cold and frosty here in Norwich but hope today will brighten up later and stay dry. I am glad you have heard from the MacMillan people and hope they do call as promised so you can get help and support from them when/if you need it.

Have as good a day as possible, and hope the pain isn't so bad today


Lizxx

p.s. Any link re the pm I sent you?

Hope you have had a bit better day today Michael and all blood results will be good so that you can begin the chemo treatment.
At long last, the McMillan nurses have you on their list. I hope they will help and support you and your wife and family too. Relax and rest before the treatment begins. xx
