Morning all its wet and windy in this part of Devon, hope some of you are getting a bit of sunshine.

I decided we needed some help to smarten the house so I hired a European cleaner to help , but she was so slow she took hours just to hoover. Turns out she was a Slovak. (Think about it ) xx Fred :)

Morning Fred,

lol Good one. Its wet and windy here too. Your hoover joke reminded me of another, which I think was voted funniest one liner at the Edinburgh Festival last year.

" I have decided to sell my hoover....... well, it was just gathering dust anyway!"

You have come up with far better one liners than that Fred. lol

hugs from Huggs xxx :)

Thanks for my morning chuckle Fred. Hope you are okay today and not had any backache during the night. The weather is not doing much for you either but maybe it has changed by now. We are still overcast here but it has tried to brighten up in the last hour. Keep well. Enjoy the rest of your day.

Hi there butter-fly the backache is following me around but when I turn around I can't see it, but its still there again when I turn back, oh well that's life, I can stick that I just wish I could find out what they are going to do about these tumours. Sorry for the moan got carried away, back to smiling :) :)

It's good to be able to offload our worries too Fred. It's a strain having to be cheerful all the time especially when we are not feeling too chipper or are frightened. That's what's so brilliant about this site, serious health issues can be talked about and we are never alone. it's my oasis. Yours too. xx

Thanks for that, I slipped I have been living with cancer for the last eight years and each time its been sorted, but its always been only in one lung but now its decided to be in both which is a different kettle of fish, I know there is nothing I can do other than try and remain positive, I am just hoping that I am able to have the RFA treatment again and not end up back on chemo, which takes ages and I find it rather off putting to say the least, and it makes life quite restrictive every time the blood cells change levels, other than that, I am fine thanks and by morning will be ready for the parade. Once again thank you xx :) Fred

I did read your earlier posts Fred and understand to some extent what you have been going through. Of course no one ever really knows except the person with the condition or others who have the same thing and after 8 years of treatment I'm sure you could give lessons on the subject! The effects of chemo can be pretty dire and as a bystander I can understand why you don't want to go through it again. I have watched family members go through chemo in the past and am currently trying help my brother in law cope with his. Not a subject that carries many jokes I'm afraid.

With cancer as with late stage Copd it seems each day can bring a new slap in the face and I agree that being positive is the only way, hard as that may be to achieve. Sorry for wittering on Fred and I do hope that the consultant offers RDA versus the chemo when you see him next . Until then positive thoughts and all good wishes are winging their way to you.

Once again thanks Sara, hope your brother in law is baring up and with your help I am sure he is, as with my girls they keep me going and will not let me wallow in self pity. I am so pleased I have this site as well xxx :)

lollollol funny :D
