I Am Still Around ....

[debris4spike]

But still am exhausted..  I had lung function tests on Monday and am 100% OK!!  They also tokk loads of blood to do loads of tests ... I get those results tomorrow.

I ended up rushing to M&D's yesterday morning as Dad had another nose-bleed, this one turned out to just need scattering ... not due to high blood pressure like a couple of years ago.  However I have just spoken to Mum and she said he had another smaller one today so I told her to speak to the docs to get it checked again.

Claire has the date for her mastectomy & reconstruction ... a week today, so although it is hard for her, the hospital are moving fast so she can have treatment and get on with her life.

Mum is not doing well - just really run down both emotionally & physically ... but to try to get her to admit anything is impossible.  For the first time ever she is putting it down to age, which is a sure thing she is not well *g*

Jiffy continues to be as mad as ever ... so that's good news!

Well, I am trying to keep up with your news, but tiredness sends me to bed early still.  Hope you are all well ... and life is going well.

*group hugs*

Given all the issues in your life right now (and I certainly hope all those health things - yours and your family's - get sorted out soon), I think keeping up with our little posts should be way down on your list!. Just concentrate on getting well and taking care of your relatives. *hugs*

*hugs* you back ... keeping up with Lj takes my mind off everything else though ... so there are advantages!

Oh hon, I'm sorry to hear all of this. I wish you and your family the absolute best and that you recover quickly. *huge hug*

Thanks so much - it just seems to have gone on forever.
*hugs* back

It's good to hear that all are better!

Dad had more nose bleeds as it turned out ... but they seem to have finally got him sorted out again ... I pray it is so as Mum is really getting stressed out.

Let's hope you get back to full health soon.

So glad that Clare is not having to wait and that she can have a Reconstruction at the same time, I think that psychologically, that has to help.

So many worries for you right now ((hugs))

Thanks Debs - so happy you had good news, and yes, it is great that Claire is able to have the reconstruction, so hopefully that is the end of her treatment for years to come.

The stress with Mum & Dad (and Claire) is certainly not helping my virus ... but nothing I can do about that.

*hugs* back.

Hey, I hear you - try very hard to take care of yourself. Keep in mind that if you burnout it will just make things worse. ((hug))

Thanks very much - yes all these family tensions are not helping me kick the virus.

*hugs*

I'm glad to read that you are doing better. You certainly have a lot of responsibilities that require you to be in good health. I hope that all goes well with Claire's operation.

Thanks - I know that Claire will be OK ... although it is still a long hard journey for her.
