Sorry you Been in the national Health Hotel pneumonia is awful had it a couple of times this year amoxycillin is a pointless Drug in my mind lots of people dont get along with it I think they throw the the cheap Drugs at us first hope you are on the mend it takes time to feel somewhat Better How Did you get on when you went to see the oxygen. Nurse .Frank sends his Regards have you Been back to PR. Keep your fingers crossed that my infection gone finished Abs this morning Dont think it has though looking like I will end up going in on the IV abs take care Margaret

Oh dear hope it is not too complicated for you..only do what you feel you can do..maybe today isn’t the day..easy for me to say I know.. my daughter is trying to teach me to say no!

So glad you managed to get out. It can really give you a boost, can't it? Sometimes we just have a ride out in the car for an hour and it's lovely to see the countryside and families out and about. Hope you find your ring. xx Moy

Dear Margaret fingers are so tightly crossed for you to get over your infection and to get some help at the hospice with your terrible anxiety/panic attacks. As you know I am the same and I'm hoping you will be able to pass on any valuable information/methods of controlling our "attacks". Please keep in contact and let's hope things will become a little easier?

Best wishes to you and Frank!
