Hi All

Sorry but have been here for a while as I have just had some fun riding in an Ambulance with the Red Blues flashing with all the noise as well (that woke the drivers going to sleep and made tthe others quickly hide their phones.

Apparently I had pneumonia (again) I am all right now as they sent me home, all I have to do is take some antibiotics for the pleurisy and I shall be fine. I think I an lucky co come out with pleurisy as some have gotten akk sorts of infections in there so I am one of the lucky ones.

My wife got a letter following her blood test and now has to have some more tests to see what it is.

Life is funny really, because when your down it throws everything at you but when you are fine and happy then you have the good things in life happen to you.

Take care and Kindest regards

Terry

Hi

The thing with my wife is she really has been through the wars over the last few years but now her blood test shows her to be anaemic which is no problem but many years ago (about 6 or 8) she had hepatitis C (she used to be a nurse so she assumes that is where she got it from) and they said that they can cure it. The cure was quite nasty she was having sickness, she lost her hair and that was when they said it is almost the same as for cancer chemo-therapy anyway the completed the course and was told she would have follow ups every six months then every year. same old, she had the six month follow up and that is it. now they think it may be back, she has said that she will not go through that again but the thing is she has just had two new hips in the last five years. why did they not find out then?

Modern Medicine its amazing is it not!!

Take care and Kindest regards

I had always wanted to go in an ambulance with flashing lights and everything the first chance was my appendis and Mother drove me instead the second I crashed a car and put my femur through my hip and it was a hellish experience. Glad you are better an home once more, keep warm hope this year starts improving for you . xgins

Hello Terry, we missed you! So pleased you are home and on the mend! Make sure you do as the hospital told you, keep warm and take care.

Lovely to have you back with us!
