Hi Beaglegirl. Im so sorry that your husband is having such a dreadful time. my daughter also had a feeding tube when she was extremely ill and although it looks scary and unpleasant , it will help your husband get the nutrients that he needs. Everyone is so different in how they respond to the various treatments . I think…

Beaglegirl, I’m so sorry for everything that you are going through just now . it’s difficult to know what to say apart from that from my experience with my daughter , things can change very quickly and after hearing bad news one day , I was sometimes told something more positive the next. Your husband’s consultants won’t…

Hi Michelle Lovely to hear from you and so reassuring. Yes I think you and my daughter have similar weakness in your chest . Her consultant said that it’s probably due to all the harsh treatment that was necessary to rid the cancer. After a few x rays they’ve said that it’s a nasty cold virus and when her temp is stablised…

Hello Everyone . I’m sorry that I haven’t been here for a wee while. Weve been selling and clearing Paul’s house which has been so hard but we have to do it now . My daughter hasn’t been well.

So glad to hear that you had a lovely time with your little granddaughter, Michelle. Little ones are a wonderful distraction! My daughter went to a haematology support group organised by Maggies today. Although everyone had different forms of blood cancer , she said it was good to speak to others and she was able to chat…

Hello everyone it’s good to hear that despite what you are all going through, you keep going and manage your symptoms as well as possible . it’s more difficult in the winter when you can’t sit outside and breathe in the fresh air. I’m thinking of buying a patio heater so that I can wrap a blanket round me and sit outside…

Hi Michelle, you too are having a difficult time and I really hope that the antibiotics kick in and help to clear your lungs. I know that lungs can take a while to start to improve as my daughter went through a particularly bad spell with them. She still has a persistent cough but her consultant doesn’t seem too concerned.…
-
Helen, you are having such a rough time and I want you to know that I am thinking about you a lot. I know that you are in a lot of pain and it seems to be taking forever for them to get to the bottom of things - but they will and then they will start you on a treatment. You do so wonderfully well to keep going and the…

Hi everyone and thank you so much Dave for giving me such a detailed and helpful understanding of the biopsies that my daughter is having every 3 months at the moment. I suppose it’s only natural to be a bit apprehensive when waiting for the results It makes me so sad, Helen and Dave that you are having so much trouble…
-
Hi Michelle i do think there’s similarities between my daughters symptoms and yours . I just worry all the time but try to appear relaxed in front of her . She doesn’t want a fussing mum, just to be treated normally. She had another biopsy at the beginning of the week so always a bit tense while we wait for results. How…

Thinking about you Michelle and hopE that they sort out your chest infections soon. My daughter had so many chest infections while in hospital and when she got home .
