Good Morning Saturday

Rant as much as you like, gilly. It really does help.

Sorry to hear there is nothing more positive for you to cling to at the moment. You have so much to cope with.

Sending love xx

Good morning,

At the moment it is dry and clear but it is expected to deteriorate as the day progresses.

DH is watching the rugby in the other room. I can hear it, but darent watch! ( How silly is that?)

Not a lot planned today apart from a bit of shopping and giving our local butcher our Christmas meat order as there was a note up in the shop last week saying that orders were now being taken.

gillybob, don't ever think that we will get irritated by your posts. We are all rooting for you and your DH, sending our prayers, thoughts and best wishes. As others say, I, like them, look each day for your post, hoping to hear more positive news. Try not to let the behaviour of that customer upset you. He is probably unaware of your circumstances - not that that excuses rudeness. I hope someone has told him to back off.
I do hope that you have a friendlier nurse to speak to. Keep plugging away for answers from the medics, you shouldn't be fobbed off. Could your sister or daughter be with you when you arrange to speak to someone? If it helps, have a list with all your queries and questions, so you don't forget something. Possibly ask for second opinions? (Sorry, I know it's easy for me to say this from a distance. Only you know the circumstances, but I just wonder if there is someone else you could ask to speak to). Sending you hugs and prayers. ?

Good morning from the Scottish Borders on this dreich day - but pretty with autumn colour.

I am angry on your behalf Gilly. You should be getting answers and you ought to have an empathetic nurse or supporter among the staff. I am also shocked to hear of these HAI (hospital acquired infections)

Praying for you both (all) that he pulls through. It has been too hard.

Here we are watching the rugby because my French visitors wanted to. I don't know the first thing about it.

Later we will plant some shrubs in my newly cleared garden space.

Good morning Auntyflo and all x

Wild here and I am not watching rugby because there is tennis due on later. Most of the berries have been eaten so I am filling the bird feeders again. Due to the heavy rain I wonder if fireworks will go ahead. There will be a lot of disappointed people if they are cancelled. It is so much safer to have a public display.
gillybob All of us are heartsore for you but praying and rooting for you both. As others have said you must come and rant away here any time. I do so wish I could do something in real life. As it is the weekend hopefully some of the family can take turns or sit and let you home to eat and shower or better still sit and keep you company. I send you prayers and wish I could hold your hand.

Gilly lass, you must rant away, it is a safety valve.
Could you speak to Pals on Monday with a list of questions? They may be able to provide someone to speak to the medical team on your behalf .

Sending you both love and hugs?

Urmstongran - Agreed - sending big hugs and to gilly - keep in there girl - you are doing so well.

Dear gillybob I continue to send kindest thoughts to you and your family

So sorry to hear your nightmare is continuing gillybob.

There is absolutely no need to apologise for your posts.

Everyone here feels for you so much and wishes every day to hear some good news from you.

I think Pals is a good idea if you feel the medical staff aren’t taking your concerns or questions seriously enough. That is what they are there for.

Stay strong.

I can’t be the only one who sees the GM thread pop up late in the day and checks in, heart in mouth, to see if it’s news from gillybob
?

Urmstongran, you're not the only one.
Just keep hoping for a glimmer of good news for Gillybob.

Wouldn’t it be wonderful if our collective good vibes could deliver good news for them today and for all of us to read about tomorrow?
?

It would Urmstongran ?

That’s exactly what I did urmston

Aw ladies - you are such kind people. So very many on this thread really do care deeply for gillybob

I find myself thinking about them on and off throughout the day.

Her distress has really touched me. Yet we’ve never met.
