Soop's Kitcheners...

soutra so sorry to hear this, but, keep the faith. DD2 had similar results, but in the end all was well. Such a worrying time for you all.

Soutra; I'm so sorry to hear this. I very much hope that the further tests are more reassurung. Big hug on it's way to you.

Oh Soutra what a worry for you all. I'm sorry I am not very good at finding comforting things to say but truly will be thinking of you and your family this weekend

Harrigan for you too.

Nightowl I was a newcomer too not so long ago but was made to feel very welcome. Join in more often

soutra, your family must be beside itself with worry, I do hope it's good news in the end

soop hope the injection does the trick. I have had a couple of injections in my shoulder which always felt worse for a couple of days. I hope it does the trick.

I'm so sorry to hear this soutra. for you and your family.

Soutra I'm so sorry, I hope the subsequent tests show better results. What a horrible time for all of you

soutra that is a very sad and worrying time for your family

Harrigran for you also.

soop I do hope that the injection works and that the pain stays away. I cannot understand why you put up with the agony for so long- May -October is a lifetime.

galen that is very good news- a very good excuse to go clothes shopping.

I'm not a visitor to this thread often but that is so sad Soutra

Just checking the news in the kitchen before I nod off. So very sad for you and your family, Soutra. There really are no words that will help. You are in our thoughts.

Soutra (((hugs))).

I don't pop in very often but would like to add my best wishes to Soutra and her family. Such a worrying time for you all

So sorry to read your sad news Soutra.

Sorry to read this sad news Soutra. My sincere best wishes and hopes for a favourable result for your DD.

Soutra I cannot imagine how you must all feel. to you and hoping so much that the tests will be more favourable.

Ah, soutra, the decision time we all dread. I'm sorry to hear about your daughter's sad time.

Doesn't worrying news like this put things into perspective? What a difficult time for you and your family, Soutra. I hope they soon have enough helpful information to enable them to decide what happens next. Much love

Indeed whenim64 this sort of worry does put life into perspective.

Dear Soutra my heart goes out to you and your family. This should be a time for celebration. You will remain in our thoughts over what will seem to be an endless weekend. when's words are wise.

And for Harrigran

Soutra, how awful for you all (((hugs))). I'll be thinking of you over the next few days.

Harrigran, what shocking news and at such a sad time for you. Our eldest son had a stroke aged 35 whilst living in Japan. We, of course, flew straight out and spent 12 hours not knowing what we would find when we got there so I know how worrying this time is. We were sustained by good friends and the rest of the family and I know you will be there for your friend. PM me if I can help with experiences etc.

Bella, I hope you are enjoying this time with your sister and that your DH is coping without you. One of my friends flew to Canada to be with her sister at a time like this and said she and her sister had a really happy time together, strange as it seems!

Soop I hope the injection has the desired effect.

nightowl, lovely to see you.

Soutra ,just sending warmest wishes and hope to you and all your family.

Soutra Bella Harrigran and all the *kitcheners who have distressing issues to deal with...I'm sending yet more love. I haven't felt like adding more messages, because saying the right thing, at the right time, is nigh impossible.

Good night to my Granspals.

This is such a lovely place, and thank you for the welcome. I have taken a friend out today for a much postponed birthday lunch, so I am replete with lovely food and too much cake.

There seem to be too many of you struggling with different troubles at the moment, and I just want to add my good wishes and (((hugs))) to you all, and hope for better times ahead.

Nightowl It is a lovely place you always get a welcome and a hug if you need one. Its a retreat for anyone stressed.

I haven't been in regularly for a while as I have been hectically busy and horribly stressed by a Kitchen refit which developed a hitch in the form of a young lad who just did not cope with the job.

No kitchen sink for eight days. The firm sent the cavalry in on Friday, Saturday, & Monday. The hunky Tiler came in on Tuesday but I was out babysitting. . I arrived back from a days early babysit and a two hour choir rehearsal and walked into the kitchen to a Wow! and some profanities at how wonderful it looked.

There were two 100ml round trips to child mind DGS in two weeks and a hectic round trip of 320 miles for a family funeral and back the next day. I am allowing my self a slob about weekend now. Whilst waiting to find a painter and get the new flooring man to come.

Feeling tired.

Thank you nightowl...it's good to meet with a pal and indulge in a few treats. It will have done you a power of good.

Nellie I can well imagine your reaction on entering your brilliant new kitchen. It must have been worth all the setbacks and hassle. As for missing the hunky Tiler, I call that mismanagement of the highest order. Over the next week or two you have an awful lot of to-ing and fro-ing to contend with...so, we Kitcheners give you permission to put your feet up, treat yourself to a nice and relax...

By gum, it's blustery. Rory refuses to put his head out the door. His tortoiseshell kitten [now about two years old] has realised that a visit to the "diner" is time well spent. She calls early evening and at breakfast time. After which, off she strolls into the forest. She is adorable...but will never be tamed. That's okay with us.

Soop The "kitten will never be tamed" Did you not think that about Rory a few years ago?

Good luck to you and Mr Mcsporran in your wanderings over the next few weeks. It's all going to be stressful enough without long drives to contend with.
That's the downside of living in such a beautiful and remote area as you are.

All GNers will be thinking of you. xxx
