Soops Kitchen is now open again - Mods shut the last one.

Glad you’re now home Blossoming and have enjoyed a walk in Lytham.
The weekend before we married in 1981, we had a day in Lytham, a warm, late April, sunny day with a picnic by the windmill on the Green.
However it snowed for some of the following week and we had a freezing cold but thankfully sunny wedding day!

💐and 🙏🏻 FGT

It’s warm and sunny here in Kos - topping up our vitamin D levels.
It’s lovely to be away from all the jobs and housework although I am still being contacted about WI matters and the PCC. Remember when we didn’t have mobile phones and were out of contact?
I’m glad you are home blossoming and you are feeling more settled.
Ouch Jax - hope it is settling down.
Love to the soops and FGTs as always.

Hope your mouth is healing well
Jax

I’ve just arrived at The Christie. Got my coffee, a croissant and a banana. I like this quiet hour before I go up while the ward staff serve the lunches up there.

Much quieter here today. No out patient clinics. Just visitors for the wards like me.

It’s a sad little 4 bedded room on the ward. All 4 men are receiving palliative care. One is terminal and going from here to a hospice on Monday. He’s 76. Himself is the youngest. We visitors acknowledge one another quietly with sad tired faces, not maintaining eye contact for too long in case we crumple.

The staff are brilliant. Nothing is too much trouble for patients or their families. Dedicated care given with kindness which is so very much appreciated by us all. Normal life in suspension as Saturday goes on outside, as it does.

I think you’re brave to describe it so well Fried. I’ve tears in my eyes. xx

Fgt2 Thinking of you and himself. Take care of yourself special lady

FGT you are one special lady to give us all an insight into your life right now.
Sending love, strength, and positivity for your dear man’s condition to improve enough for him to come home and for you to share time together, just the two of you. Live moment by moment if you can.
❤️ 💐

Sending my best wishes and love to you FGT2, knowing much of what you're going through. It is a hard path to tread; I hope you can feel the love and prayers from all on this site, and that you gain strength from it. Be as smiley as you can for your man.

Sending love to you and your dear husband, Fgt 💐

Glad to see so much kindness in FGT’s moving post and holding her in my prayers.

FGT,hope all the loving thoughts and prayers winging your way bringing you a little comfort at this difficult time.💐

Your post has touched me deeply fgt. Your courage shines through as does the care and kindness. Love to you both.

Spottybook we're walking the same road at much the same time. Of course we wish that our DHs hadn't had that diagnosis but I'm just thankful that it's been found - by chance, no clear symptoms - in time for treatment to give us hope of more time together. We're trying to carry on as normally as possible. I hope your DH's treatment is helpful.

Love to fgt and the Soops and all in need.
