poor mum. the toe that was cut is giving her hell,thankyou guido for your comment about gout. i rang Dr,this morning and had a word with him,explained she was in loads of pain mentioned that i had been told about gout remedies,but he cant prescribe mum anything for it. she is on so many tablets and that he was sorry, that he just cannot give her anything stronger than the painkillers she takes,one foot seems to be healing i changed dressing for her as it was coming off,and it looks reasonably ok. but you can see how "knobbly" her toe joints are. she trys to get around, and doesn't give up easily.is resting foot as much as she can just and i know i have said it before,i hate my mum in pain. rather mine doubled than her.
i been feeling down,loads of pain in legs,but at least cough and chest infection seem to be clearing up. but i went in garden after lunch no use sitting about,nice mild day. decided,because im possibly mad,( said it before lucy or pam does lol) to clean my 2 water features i have in front garden,1 is like an old water pump,water flows out of pump spout and into reservoir,,the other is a watering can,pouring into a slate trough. both have never been cleaned out since i put them there ermmmmmm a while ago.lol both disgusting, cleaned them out,cleaned the pebbles both contained,moved 1 to new position refilled with water and both now working. smell better too lol also i cut the dead heads off daffodils,don't seem to have been out very long this year.so all clear now. ready for the summer. if we get one that is.
everything is growing strongly now. i bought last friday 15 geranium plug plants in supermarket. for the princely sum of £1.99. try and get some more this week. all potted in greenhouse and coming along well. also potted the 2 large begonia corms i kept from last year. so a start lol. 2 ducks keep here most of day.asleep most of time under fruit bushes lol. when they arent on pond. which now closely resembles the black lagoon. i clean it out once a year when ducks finish coming. well,time for bed thanks for your comments take care all

poor morty i do feel for you xxx spring will buck you up and your garden will be a haven for you and all of us on here. love to you and give mum a big sloppy kiss from mist. night hun xxx
I love those types of fountains. I bet they look nice when operating. I especially love the old pump ones. We have never had something like that , just admired someone elses.
Feel so sorry for Mum and the painful feet. What a nice thought, you would take the pain if you could. Sometimes it is good that it doesn't work that way. But in our hearts it does and would work well.
Sounds like you are improving some your own self. Hope so. Jack

Sorry to hear about your mum and it's a shame there's nothing more to be done because of her other medication. Have you got pictures of your water features, and your doing far to much and your not in the best of health either surley they must be able to arrange some respite care for you. Heart go's out to the both of you.
Regards to your mum.

I'm sorry you mum is in so much pain. I understand what you mean about wishing you could take her pain. No one wants to see someone they love in pain.
Your water features sound lovely. Glad spring is finally here.
Hugs, Joyce

I'm so sorry your Mum is suffering so much. I know what you mean about wanting to have the pain instead of them. I was like that with my Mom when she was alive. It's awful to see one that you love suffering. Give her a great big hug from me, ok?
Glad you got out and did some gardening. It's raining here....can you believe it? We never get rain!
Have a good night.
Love,
Pam xoxox
Sorry to hear your mum's gout cannot be treated adequately, Mort, it is excruciatingly painful. Get her to drink plenty, if she doesn't already. Avoid coffee and tea.
There is a very nasty chestbug going round at the moment, good to hear you're getting over it. Your garden will look great!
Mort I am sorry your Mum is in such pain ~ and sad that her Doctor cannot prescribe something for her ~ I just hope the pain eases off ~ glad your chest infection is clearing up ~ sounds like you were busy out in the garden your water features sound lovely ~ nice to know your Ducks are still with you :o) ~ Take care Ally x
Everytime I see a duck now I think of you and your friends ;) Sorry to hear about your mum's pain I can understand why you don't wish to see her suffering xx Glad your flowers are coming along nicely xx

Hey my fav other man. I won't lecture you this time....why? I hear you ask! lol. Just because! lol. I am sure you will do plenty more bad things, that will keep me nipping away at you and, cleaning a couple of water features Is okay, quite theraputic aswell I would Imagine. lol. Sorry to hear your mum is still In pain. Have you thought about homeopathic remedies? Maybe something to look Into. If I come across anything Interesting, I will give you a shout. Now... Take It easy!! ;-) Love Pam xx
I missed your Journal 2 times in a row, and I love your Journal. Computer problems , I hate it when that happens. I feel so bad for your mum. I am fed up with 3 weeks of not feeling well, then I lok around me asnd thuink how good I have it. Lucy
I know Im going to sound like a miser here,but I go to b&q and buy up trays of flowers for 50p each tray,as they are on their last legs,then after planting and a good watering,well a good drowning, they all come back to life,did that with my acer,it was a standard going for £9.00 instead of £20.00 as it was pot bound,popped it in the ol' garden after cutting the plastic from the roots and its a winner! Beautiful plant,its now a beautiful red canopied tree,when its not windy or rainy of course.Sorry to hear about your mum and your pains too hun,heres hoping by the time summer comes,youre both able to enjoy some lovely garden moments,pop some night scented stock in by the house and smell that on a summers eve,delicious ! zoe xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
