Oh dear that looks horrid stuff, i reckon fill it with Guinness it might look much better

Seriously though, hopefully it will do the trick for you and you will be back on something nice soon.

Best wishes.

The meal replacement product does look pretty grim. I've just been reading Ian Rankin's latest ="Even Dogs in the Wild" where there's a lot of talk of takeaways - usually curries so I really sympathize- it definitely doesn't compare. I hope the Docs find a balance soon and you get to put all this behind you, its just a case of hanging in until they figure it all out and hit on the right approach and then you'll be out the door and down to your local. Rebus seems to favour malt whisky or a pint at the Oxford. I used to like a lager and lime when I was growing up in the UK.

Its good to hear you have such terrific support in your wife.

Sending you all good wishes from across the pond. Hang in there it will get better.

Hey Chris, I prefer the picture of you! If prayers and thoughts help a person, then I am guessing you have a huge pair of arms holding you all the time. The people on this forum are with you, and your lovely wife, all the way. Until the real thing happens, focus your daily meditations on drinking a cold beer and eating your favourite nosh One more step....love and best wishes to you and yours xxx Jeanette

Our poor brave Jedi, you really are still having a bad time. I hope and prey that you will get better and stronger by the day and that this ordeal will soon be over for you and that you will get out of there and be back with your family very soon. Much love Mel x

Hey, Chris. A happy and HEALTHY New Year to you. We are all hoping it gets you back well on the road to recovery. You must be SO wanting to go home now. Get well SOON xxx

Hi Chris, you just seem to be going from one thing to another. Lets hope this year turns out to be a better one and you turn the corner and are fully on the mend.

I like others are amazed at how cheerful you and take the time to let us know how you are getting on. Fingers crossed 2106 is a much better year for you.

Whilst recognising their vital role, admit to having rather uncomplimentary thoughts about TPN....tasteless, puking, nasties; tadpole paella noblesse; totalitarian ponsey nitbits; However, Chris, is altogether different. Courageous, Hunky, Remarkable, Inspirational, Superb. and his wife, Wow, Inspiring, Feisty, Essential! (and a G to add....for surely Gorgeous). Loving thoughts, nonstop admiration, and prayers, Tinkerbell13

Brilliant Tinks!! And so spot on. Poll x

Thanks for your fun reply! Great forum this! Happy Healthy New Year to you....Tinks!

As I've said before just be thankful it's not me preparing your meals. When my youngest son joined the Royal Navy they told the new recruits that the cooking wouldn't be like their mothers - his response was "thank God for that"!

Hopefully you'll soon be home and on catch up with food and drink that's been denied you (in moderation of course!)

My husband is on soft food due to having his teeth out, his gums have been a mess and he's fed up of the food and the jokes too now, (Sons bought him sticky toffee and humbugs for Christmas - oh how he (didn't) laugh) I'll show him your post and then he'll realise he's got nothing to moan about (apart from being married to me)

Best Wishes to you and yours

Lizzie

Keep on hanging on in there Chris, surely you must be over the worst by now? What else can be thrown at you? And that bag of gunk just looks vile!! At least it's by line and not oral!! Always in my prayers, much love, Poll x

Hello Chris, In the bags of TPN there is some really good nutrition for you, whilst you are off your food .Hopefully your appetite will slowly return. As always, take care. Bye,

Gill
