Good Morning Tuesday 7th October 2025

So pleased with your news Marydoll. Always in my thoughts and prayers. [flowers) I usually read this thread every day to keep up with everyone's busyness as I have so little going on in my life, being virtually housebound, but live vicariously through you lovely people on here. Thoughts and prayers with FGTs and dragonflies too, for good outcomes today.
Thank you all for sharing your shenanigans with us on this positive thread. Hope people realise how much it helps.

Hello to all from the East Sussex coast.
Wonderful news MD and good luck FGT.
It's cold and grey here on the East Sussex coast. Just had windows cleaned and am grateful to now see out! Will be stewing a large number of windfall apples today, given to me by a friend. They are quite small and funny shapes and so they will take ages to peel and chop but they are delicious with lemon juice and water, brown sugar and sultanas mixed in.. Will be freezing some in plastic icecream boxes otherwise I would be eating them daily for weeks.
Have a lovely day everyone.

Marydoll just seen your news, so pleased for you. Please have a little rest now

So glad to read Mdoll’s news and hope for similar encouragement for the FGTs. A constantly interrupted morning means I am late again so will read properly, having skimmed to get news of the above.

Pleased to read it was good news Marydoll rest up now as the worry and these procedures do take it out of you.

Hope the treatment goes well for himself FGT ❤️

Lovely to see so many posting support and the friendliness and caring of everyone on this thread is a joy.

Good afternoon everyone.

I’m very late to the party as I’ve been out today.

I’ve not read everyone’s posts yet, but just wanted to say how pleased I am Marydoll that the news wasn’t what you were worried it might be, and I sincerely hope that the medical staff will now be able to work out the most suitable meds to give you the most relief from all the pain and discomfort you endure.

Likewise, I hope that all has gone well for your OH today FGT2.

Also, dragonfly - sending you a hug and best wishes.

Late in today as away in North Norfolk and internet patchy at best.
Just wanted to say how relieved I am for MD that her condition is one of the lesser evils.
Also to sends hugs and thoughts to Dragonfly and the FGTs as they begin their ‘mountain climb’. x
