Dad got his scan results today. He phoned me to say it was positive in that he is allowed to have another three months of chemo, which is aimed at slowing the spread of the cancer. The tumour in his neck, which is a secondary, had also shrunk a little. The cancer was originally in his kidney. Then he said ''and the others aren't any bigger either''. Turns out there are now tumours in his lungs and stomach and he'd been keeping it from me for months. I hate that he feels unable to tell me stuff because he's so worried about how I will cope with it, due to my mental illness. Not knowing everything just makes me worry even more. He realised he'd let it slip by accident and changed the subject, so I let him, as that's what he needs to do at present. I just wish I could be more of a support to him. I'll be heading over for a visit next week though, so need to practice putting on my positive face and letting him think all is well.
Of course you can't help but worry, but make the most of your time together next week, we will be thinking of you and sending hugs. Polly x |

Yorkie, Polly said it all really. I just wanted to offer you a warm, albeit cyber, (((((hug))))) and wish you all the best for your visit next week. Your dad must be proud to have such a loving, sensitive soul as you for a daughter.

Hello Sooty,
Welcome home old married lady. Yes indeedy, we do want a blow by blow account, all the details including how you managed walking in those wonderful shoes. Does the 'blow by blow' comment relate to the mother in law being 'stunned into silence' ![]() ![]() Now you are a famous model and going to appear in wedding magazines I do hope you will still be mixing with us plebs and popping in to share chocolate, Polly xx |

Just thought I'd quickly share this poem I wrote the other day.
Who would miss somebody who didn’t exist? Who never was? But who could have been. Does the existence of you in my mind make me strange? Make me silly? Make me human? One day you will have a brother or a sister and I won’t cry for you no more but I will remember. I will remember the life that could have been.

mathers i get what you mean about headspace, i have myself, my bf, all my friends and family driven mad in the last four weeks, before then everything was perfect and in the space of one night everything crashed
![]() iv spent four weeks overanalyzing everything, being needy and insecure and even when something is going my way i worry about how it could so easily disappear. im stuck at home a lot of the day and im so conscious everyone else seems to have a life i just feel trapped, scared and break into tears easily anyways, don;t mind me, havent gone into details guess was just empathizing a bit about the headspace bit hope everyone is well

I am 9 months into my rehab after my massive back operation. Very slow progress with over a year to go before I am recovered. Then it will be as good as it gets. Its been worth it as my sciatica has gone. I am left with limited mobility and extreme soreness. I have been spying on DS from afar, not posting much. Family life . Not going to go there to keep my sanity.Like you, hope all present and past members are OK. Pete |

I have hardly used this even though it probably would have helped me in the past.
I'm only 19, but I know what it feels like to feel so slow you can't think of anything else but killing yourself. Am I to over the top by saying that, or has the commenting suicide feeling already been mentioned? I remember not too long a go when I was put on some anti-depressants that sent me really crazy. I couldn't control my body and it was like someone was in my head controlling me. I'd cry and yet no tears would come out. Not sure if that makes sense? At the worse stages I'd be in bed rocking back and forward like some rag doll. It is the hardest thing I have ever had to deal with, but I am glad I got through it. It would have been so easy to give up and kill myself. I am sure that if we've been in a really low place in ourselves then some of us are bound to think, 'It would be so much easier if I did'. Anyway. Really nice to know that there are some really supportive members. Well done! ![]() Tom |
