Slowly life returns to normality. A few folk to see yet to welcome in the New Year and then wind down a bit.

Marilyn............have a good break.

Rita,.......Keep in touch and try and remain positive....hard as that might be.
It dosen't matter what age they are......they are always our 'children'. And if they are hurting then so do we.

Patricia....I have never understood 'Bank Holidays' they seem to be a Law unto themselves. Lots of businesses in Scotland are closed until Monday 10th January. I will be back in my Office on Thursday.

Have a good day ya all.

Marilyn,
Are you flying from Exeter? I'll be the one with the red hat. I'll carry the suitcases for you!
My boss would probably blow a gasket if I wasn't at work.
Scotland don't get Monday as a Bank Holiday but Tuesday is a Bank Hoilday!

Rita Report 1 Jan 2011 20:21

Thank you all so much for your kindness.I have spoken to Mike, he is taking it well. wether it is for my benifit I dont know.?He said he is in Gods hands now. they are going to do the operation this month he will hear in a few days time.. he said Mum whatever happend happens dont get upsetting yourself. he said he has a good chance as his other kidney is good.. His daughters wedding has been arranged for 10th September in Dorset. every thing has been brought and booked and paid for.we have booked our hotels as well.

I think it came as a shock as he has been having test and they told him he didnt have cancer but the other doctor insisted they do an MRI when they found this tumour 18cm.
I didnt cry when my youngest son told me, it was not a pleasant job for John. but I have cried buckets since. I am gradually accepting it but it is so hard when it is your children..

Thank you all once again.
God bless.

Rita, how very sad. Thats what families do. They try and protect each other, especially when there is Christmas or a family gathering.

Kidneys are funny old things, we can all survive on one. There are marvellous treatments. Be positive all will be well.

I shall say one for your son. Try not to worry too much. You will make yourself ill.

Marilyn, gave a good holiday, and wish Pete well.

Big hugs to you both.

Maddie

Rita .....thats soooooo Sad,

What can I say ?.....but I'm sure the medical team will do their best for him, lucky he has another kidney. Never mind Rita don't go worrying because you will make yourself ill, just think he will be operated on very soon .
Let us know and I'll light a candle when I go to Church ....Maybe his daughter will hold the wedding off for a while , or if its the end of the year better still.


Shelly I will send you that Web Site .....
