To all those who have posted supportive messages and sent kind PMs in the last days, after my scary stay in hospital this week, I cannot find the words to say how much it has meant to me at a very low point.

I'm overwhelmed, but just can't find the energy to reply to all the PMs at the moment, so please don't think I'm ignoring you all.

This is GN at it's very best, when there have been some not so nice moments recently.

My special thanks to my pal, Chewbacca, who took the time to let my GN pals know, why I had vanished.

To the lurkers (I don't really like that word), who have never posted before, you have left me speechless with your kindness. ?

Pleased you are recovering Marydoll, take good care of yourself.???

grandMattie Thu 07-Jan-21 15:29:09

I would like to echo Chewbacca. You are the first to Wade in ad help, defuse situations, amuse people etc. How could we not be concerned. As EV said, you feel like a much loved family member.
Listen to the dr., your family, your body... s.d the tablet for a while ? just look after yourself and be in the best health possible.
Give everyone a chance to be kind to you, to show their affection.
From another “family member”... ???

Looking good, Marydoll
(Although may I say that your roots need a bit of a touch-up. You can blame lockdown).

Thanks Baubles ? lovely photo of Marydoll and MrMarydoll

Drs orders rest up hen, no washing DH's string vests.?

Marydoll Thu 07-Jan-21 15:55:48

baubles that certainly made me laugh. I thought I looked really good, considering what I have been through!

I never intended this to become a thread, just wanted to find a quick way to thank all my virtual friends. ?
Thank you all for your kindness. Lazarus has indeed risen, yet again!! ?

Marydoll, allow all your family and yourself too to take great care of that heart of yours: it's made of gold.

GeminiJen Thu 07-Jan-21 16:13:49

Another one here who missed your news, Marydoll.
I don't log in to GN all that often...so there's a lot that I miss hmm
Sending lots of good wishes now that I've caught up and looking forward to meeting up 'live' just as soon as get togethers are allowed again.
In the meantime, follow Dr's orders flowers....with maybe even a spot of wine?

I’m glad you’ve felt the love, Marydoll. ❤️

Now, no gadding about for the next few days! If your part of Scotland is like mine, you’ll be entombed in ice anyway!

sodapop Thu 07-Jan-21 16:34:11

Get well soon Marydoll. Your posts are always very wise flowers

Feelingmyage55 Thu 07-Jan-21 16:40:48

Does Mr Doll really have a string vest? Can they still be bought?

Nannagarra Thu 07-Jan-21 16:46:15

Marydoll - really pleased you're home and in good spirits. Hoping you make a speedy recovery. flowers

TrendyNannie6 Thu 07-Jan-21 16:47:31

Oh Marydoll I didn’t even know you had been in hospital as I would have sent you a good luck message, but didn’t see your post! I’m hoping you are on the mend, lovely to hear you had lots of messages xx

westendgirl Thu 07-Jan-21 16:55:08

All the best for a speedy recovery.

paddyanne Thu 07-Jan-21 17:05:23

I missed this news Marydoll hope you are well on the way to recovery and were treated well in hospital.We had to get an ambulance for my MIL when it looked like she had suffered a stroke and cant fault the treatment by the paramedic who arrived first and the lovely ambulance crew .Thankfully it was a mini stroke and she too is home after 3 days in RAH .
The NHS is always there when we need it

WOODMOUSE49 Thu 07-Jan-21 17:13:00

So pleased to hear the good news that you're back home. Take care sunshine

Kalu Thu 07-Jan-21 17:17:17

You frightened the life out of me you besom! So pleased your ordeal is over and you are safely back home. ??

Take very good care of yourself * Marydoll*. x

Marydoll Thu 07-Jan-21 17:24:04

Paddyanne, the coronary RAH staff were indeed wonderful, as were the Paramedics, especially the dishy French one.?
Glad to hear your MIL is home safely.

As for Mr MD's string vests, I knit them myself. ? It's a chilly place Glasgow. Thank goodness I'm grounded and can't go out.!

I've just listened to Boris and the Covid drug he mentioned is the RA drug I inject weekly, which costs £1000 monthly. I am so blessed, thank God for our NHS.
