Bless you Kitty.I hope your DD is out of pain and you continue to heal.🌻

Thank you Baggs good to know our Soop is chirpy and hope your back gets better very soon.
DH had his scans today.Most of the time he is very stoic.He has lots of things going on and mostly copes well but, he suffers badly with scan anxiety hopefully not long for results.

Hope your feeling better tonight Grandmabatty.

Thinking of you Jax

FGT ❤️

Good to hear that our dear soop sounding positively chirpy
thanks for the update Baggs. I hope your back pain becomes calmer.

Gentle hugs & warm thoughts. x

Thanks for updating us baggs. I hope your back pain subsides. I'm glad Soop is a bit chirpy.
Today I dropped off the boys then did a shop at aldi before heading home. Then a lovely two hour nap after being unwell in the night. The boys have gone; dgs1 to football training and dgs2 to finish his chicken nuggets at home. I'm chilling on the couch while I decide what to eat. Chicken fajitas were planned but I don't feel up to the spice. Possibly a roll on cold meat. Then an early night. Take care all

Thank you for the update Baggs good to hear soop sounded chirpy yesterday. Hope your back pain eases soon, take care

Thanks for the update baggs. As always, send love to the soops. And love to you for being the messenger. I hope your back recovers soon. Backache is so debilitating.

GrannyGravy13 Mon 02-Feb-26 16:23:21

Thank you for the update Baggs

As a fellow back pain sufferer you have my sympathy, it’s hard to move around when it hurts, but it’s the only way to ease it.

Baggs Mon 02-Feb-26 16:13:27

Hugs for kitty and her DD2, and anyone else feeling under the weather.

I'm glad to have read that blossoming managed a longer walk than usual. Hope you can continue this well, bloss.

soop was positively chirpy in her message yesterday as the nurse who came to take bloods got some on the second attempt! This is highly unusual for soop's reluctant veins apparently. soop was about to enjoy a cup of Horlicks.

I've had a hobble-de-hee day. Minor scoliosis sometimes has a bit of a fit and I strained my back just putting my socks on this morning 🙄. Painkillers and Keep Moving are the only cure so I had to keep getting up from my desk at work and hobbling up and down a corridor.

Hoping your DD is feeling much better soon kitty 💐

gillgran Mon 02-Feb-26 15:58:35

Pleased your DD has a diagnosis & is getting treated, kitty, take care of yourself too. Hopefully able to look forward now.

Warm thoughts for all in this aptly named soop's kitchen, a friendly place of refuge flowers

Back in 2015 I had an infected gallbladder. Taken to hospital in agony on Monday and put on an antibiotic drip, kept in hospital and had gallbladder removed on Wednesday. Home on Thursday.

Good luck for your daughter Kitty.

🙏🏻 🙏🏻for FGT and Dustyangel.

kittylester Mon 02-Feb-26 13:06:34

Thank you, I have come back to say that I was only joking about the brilliant things she could have inherited from me. I have very few talents.grin

Grandmabatty Mon 02-Feb-26 12:46:56

Your poor dd. I hope she improves quickly

luluaugust Mon 02-Feb-26 12:37:39

Kittylester thinking of you DD2 flowers

Jaxjacky Mon 02-Feb-26 12:36:33

Painful kitty pleased she’s being treated, hopefully that will work 🤞x

kittylester Mon 02-Feb-26 12:13:25

Up date on DD2 - it's not kidney stones. She has an infected gall bladder. She is on iv abs - hoping to avoid surgery.

She could have inherited loads of good things from me - looks, brains, artistic flair etc etc - why pick the gall bladder. Dd3 has had hers removed too.

Grannmarie Mon 02-Feb-26 10:12:19

Just catching up, sending hugs to Kitty and her DD, so sorry to hear that.
Thinking of everyone on our Sick List, hoping and praying for good care, comfort and some improvement. 🙏🕯️

kittylester Mon 02-Feb-26 07:32:03

Thank you all for being lovely.

After seeing a doctor, DD was sent home with pain killers and told to cone back today for a scan, blood tests etc. Apparently she is still asleep.

grandMattie Mon 02-Feb-26 06:19:34

My poor kitty. Too many things in one go. “Three much” as an old friend used to say. All the best.

Grandmabatty Mon 02-Feb-26 05:46:11

I've just seen this Kitty. A hug for you and your dd. I hope she's ok

SueDonim Mon 02-Feb-26 00:32:35

Oh Kitty! flowers When I was in hospital many years ago, one of the other patients was in with kidney stones. I was very grateful that I just had appendicitis to cope with because the poor woman was in absolute agony. I hope your dd has some pain relief by now.

I completely missed both of your major operations and I do hope you are on the road to good health again, bar a wretched cold. Xxx

harrigran Mon 02-Feb-26 00:20:49

Sorry to hear your news kitty, big hug from me too.

Nannytopsy Sun 01-Feb-26 23:20:30

Lots of hugs Kitty, one for each the problems. I hope you can shake off your horrible cold and that your DD is soon recovering.
A spell of decent sunny weather would make us all feel so much better.
Love to you all.

kittylester Sun 01-Feb-26 23:18:30

merlotgran

Just seen your posts, kitty and sending a big hug.
It seems it never rains but it pours.

That made me smile, merlot because the roof men were here today doing things to the lead flashing. So, rain should be ok.

Usedtobeblonde Sun 01-Feb-26 23:16:48

I was way behind then kitty I thought you had had gallbladder surgery.
I am sorry you needed further surgery and hope you are recovered well. Ageing certainly isn’t for wimps, ain’t that the truth?
