went bit mad saturday,cleaned house,put clean curtains up omg. consequently last 2 days i been paying. but least its done. did rather collapse yesterday,cooked a lovely lunch then went bed for 3 hours. nice lol
had to take mum to chiropodists today,her appointment was for 11,she is now in agony poor dear. chiropodist had to cut her toes to let out chrystals that form in them. she has severe gout. due to stomach conditin and other meds she cant have anything for it. we think of gout as something amusing,with the idea of the hard drinking major sitting with foot up sipping brandy. mum dont drink.
when we got home she was in tears, i had to cut her shoes to relieve pressure on 1 toe, she has them dressed and another appointment in 2 weeks. very hard for mum,she hates being a "burden" on me. but thats what i do care for her.
doesnt help i feel lousy im tired. this entry not my usual flowing self lol. take care all going to bed

I'm sorry your Mum is having such pain. Foot pain is miserable. Heck, any pain is miserable. You take care of yourself Mort. You are so busy taking care of her I don't want you to forget to take care of yourself.
Hugs and love,

Mort I am so sorry your Mum is in such a great deal of pain ~ I hope and pray it will ease off ~ I also hope you will be feeling better today ~ Ally x
Hi Mort. Now you can come do my curtains and cleaning. lol I do feel so sorry for your mum. That has got to hurt just terribly. I must be honest and say I am not sure I could have stood what she did. Could they give her some kind pf pain killer that you could unject with syringe when it gets unbearable. I realizes yesterday,after we IM'd that I am going to have to be more careful about asking you specifics about the MS. I am so sorry Mort. I am to close to the blasted MS and I worryabout you. Telling me not to worry is about like telling me not to have worried about Alan. I will learn to let you tell me what you want & leave it. I care what happens to you, but I have no business prying. I think it is safer if I just e-mail you and forget the IM's. Have a good day. Lucy
Mort, my fav other man. I really feel for you both. I hope your mum gets some reprieve from her pain, that sounds absolutely awful being so sore. I remember years ago, I went to visit my sister and brother In law and could hardly walk for the pain of an Ingrown toenail. Luckily my Bil took pity on me saying he understood how painful that was and he would help!!. After rather a long time of me saying No, It was okay, He put his foot down! (Oh pardon the pun!) I had a shower and half a bottle of vodka later, I let him get the little monster out! What relief. I have total sympathy for your mum and really do hope this eases for her. Now!...You are getting a row....You have to watch yourself for overdoing It! I know you are the carer, but you can't do too much. Right! row over! lol. I hope Donald and Jem are behaving and not erm... blocking your doorway! lol. Love Pam xx

Mort,
I'd take your mum to the doctor if the gout is that acute. There are meds for that, I'm not talking anti-inflammatories by the way - it's a big long name, colchicine. Not a nice medicine, but very effective. Check with GP if that is possible.
Sorry to hear that your mum's in pain :( I can't believe you did so much on Saturday well done you xx

At least glad you are up enough to clean and get around and also keep us posted on life in that area of the world, North Norfolk. Hope Mum gets some relief soon. We have a Bro-in-law that suffers from gout, from him know it is not laughing matter. At times he says the pain is the worst he has had in his entire life.
The best to you & Mum... Hoping you both get better. Jack
