Good morning splash-- We are starting the dat nice and sunny and at 14 so it is still nice and cool at night for sleeping. I am glad that they are checking to at least help and to make sure things are going the right direction. Glad you managed to get the sample-- there may be nothing wrong but at least you may be able to get one possible problem out of the way.I have never had to deal with any of those problems but living in here have seen it happening to the best of them. I am sure if you need it there has to be some help for you as that is a heavy load to have to carry alone. I shal spend today trying to catch on 2 1/2 days of not doing a lot--will start at the top and just work down anf get what I can each day. My piller to post appointments are tiring but I keep telling my self they are doing something and I am lucky to have all the doctors I have. Have a good day and hopefully all goes well today and you can have a good day.

Hello Ed, well done for  getting the sample! I hope that it will help the doctors to sort things out! What a journey you are on. HUGS! I managed to do some gardening as well today as the sun was out. Dinner done. My favourite rissoles, mash, mushies, spinach and home grown tomatoes. I haved saved a serving for tomorrow night when I come home from the Oppie as I cannot be bothered cooking after working there.  Now I am ready for bed and a book. Hugs to you and Sandra

Hello ED TY for the White Mouse. I am glad that Hayley and her man came to help out. Have you actually spoken to Sandra's doctor and explained your concerns? It might take an actual appt. rather than a phone call. I guess that few doctors actually make home visits nowadays.  I hope that you are havong a peaceful sleep.

Morning splash-- pygmy mouse ty It is starting off at 16 and nice and sunny. Well as usual things are not simple--the vascular surgeon is not happy with the ultra sound done locally sooff I got to Kitchener and the vascular clinis for an ultra sound(the good thig is they are not invasive but just a nuisense) I also have new dressing and it is going to be done Mon,Wed and Fri so I am tied down again and got back in a month. Now onocology--my doctor is back--she wants a new CT scan so that is schedules for later in Aug. and I found a leision on the side of my nose(mentioned it to other but nothing ever done) so I am waiting for a referal toa doctor to deal with that.I other words I  am going to be busy again.I am glad to hear that Sausage tried to ease things for you even if it didn't work(maybe  if they are really needed  a doctor can order blood tests as they can tell a lot os things from one of those(that is why I do bloodwork before any CT as my kidneys are a little dicey from when I did the immune therapy) I will wish you a good day and good luck with everything

Hello Ed, dinner now done. I was interested in your question re. why does the word 'whipping'  have an 'h' in it. After dinner I looked into my books but could not quickly find the answer. So I googled it because I was curious as well. Google told me that the 'h' in whisper dates back to Old English, circa 450 - 1150 A.D. Related to a distinct breathy sound. Google told me more. Facinating! I can hear it in whisper but not in whisky. And before I go to bed, what about the word 'whole.'?  Mungo really wants to go to bed as I do. HUGS!

Hello Ed, I did have a chuckle at you remembering that I do not like the over use of the word 'very'. Silly pedantic me! Something I should get over! I didn't go to art group today as when I went for my morning coffee it was raining. I drove to the coffee shop around the corner. I decided not to drive to Sorrento in the rain. However I have been productive at home doing laundry and more clearing. I now have 2 bags of children's books to take to the Op shop on Friday. I still do not know what to do with the Doll's House and furniture. It is now in my lounge room near my front door waiting or me to decide! Re. Sandra and the urine test hopefully Tracey will be able to assist??? Hugs
