thankyou

I am deeply,deeply moved by all the lovely messages,and comments,on here,on facebook,on call for support.what can i say?thankyou seems so inadequate.but is all i can say.i have always tried to be there for anyone who needs a friendly ear,and i think anyone who knows me knows i will help in any way i can,if they are down,in trouble,hurting. its what i do.and now its my turn for pampering lol.thankyou everyone. it is appreciated so much.
One thing i didnt put,as i was walking from the Hospital car park for my appointment i had the most terrible pain i think i have ever known in my life strike in my right leg.it hurt.so much so that coming out after the car seemed miles away.anyway i made an appointment to see Dr.M this morning,A,to keep him informed what is happening,B,to find out what ive done to leg.i really thought i had pulled hamstring.instead it is phlebitis.i knew i had bad varicose veins just behind knee,and that is what is causing the pain.i am rubbing voltarol gel in 3 times a day.anyone got a cat that widdles a lot??because that would be as effective,lol. but the pain is not so bad today as it was,and it does feel a bit easier.i have not been able to get in touch with a social worker yet so have not been able to ssort out mums care when i go into hospital.hope i can early next week.

Now for something different. summer. can anyone tell me where it went??? i am so sure i read at the start of june that we were going to have a lovely hot summer.instead we have had rain,high winds that have ruined the flowers and runner beans,although i am getting reasonable crop from them,and cold.whatever the weather has been where you are i hope you have had a good summer,and once again,many thanks.take care all,mort

Mort you take care It is cool now but will climb up pretty close to 90 again. We had a very hot summer so far. Just heard from the cardiologists nurse and I didn't sign the paper to try to get a break on my multaq for my heart so will be going up there and sign that and then she will fax it. If they don't help it will cost me 243.00 a month which I could not pay for it so would have to stop it. You take care Mort and I hope for the best for you.
