Aw Sylvia, 2017 hasn't been a very good year for you, or me, I lost my husband at the end of May and it's so hard to deal with. I hope 2018 will be a better year for you and you will be able to put it all behind you, sending you hugs.

Hi Sylvi,

Keep going girl you will get the other side of this rough patch and may that be sooner rather than later. I love your photos and they always provide welcomed pleasure.

Do take care

Ali

P.S. a ‘wacky’ suggestion possibly but I have manukau honey in the winter as a hot drink with some lemon which is nice and warming - poured over stewed apple is a nice lift as well.

nomoreheels in reply to Someonesmother

I know things haven't been good for a long while for you so I hope you can shift this soon. I'm fine thanks for asking, apart from a cold which despite me thinking it wasn't doing has now gone on my chest. Can't complain though, could be worse. 😤

Someonesmother in reply to nomoreheels

Yeah almost two weeks this time. 3 weeks in early August off. It is getting a bit old and now I have chronic asthma to add to bag of tricks. Oh well what can I do except try and get better and get on with it.

Glad you are going ok and hope that doesn't turn in to a chest infection. Keep on top of it.

Hope you get better soon, I'm over my pneumonia now but back at rheumy yesterday and bloods are very elevated, she has ordered another scan for me. Now I'm worried as I've spent week with my grandson who has now got chickenpox, fingers crossed I don't get that. Sending hugs for you Sylvi 😘

I pray you don't get that my darling. Thanks for the hugs.xxxxx

Sorry to hear you've been so poorly Sylvi. Hope you turn the corner soon and enjoy better health in time for Christmas. Sending you love and hugs while picturing you stealing the pollen off the legs of unsuspecting bees in your garden. I'll have to read how its collected as I'm intrigued now.

I am so sorry to hear how low you are, Sylvi. You must there isn’t anything else that can be thrown at you. I know, from personal experience, it feels easier to give up than to continuously fight, but please don’t give up. Gentle hugs from me to you.

Oh Sylvi, I hope you feel better soon. Sending 🤗🤗🤗🤗💖💖💖💖💐💐💐💐.

PS Love your flower photos as I live in a flat and don't have a garden. I'm the weird lady who always hang around the floral displays in supermarkets and M&S just admiring the flowers etc. 😉😃

Hi Sylvi

Hope you soon feel as if your body is defeating all these attacks. So wearing!

Oh sweetheart. The americans have a very rude word for your situation 'a sh*t storm'. I'm sure you will weather it with your usual good humour and come out the other side. Please let it be soon so you can take some more of your lovely photos. Huge hugs

Dear Sylvi,

I am so sorry about your problem. Sending you a big hug, dear. Hold on there and take a good rest please.

It's been a tough time indeed and even the most resilient of us get down with things like that. I know I'm very strong but have my breaking point too. Are you seeing your doc again soon or maybe go to chat how you feel? Hoping that's it for a long ling while and no more chest infections.

Neonkittie17 profile image
Neonkittie17

I'm not surprised you feel out of sorts .. That chest infection went on forever. ( I had a low level thing but caused bad wheezing which won't go and convinced Rituximab causing all sorts of sinus issues and chest too. ) I hope you can soon feel less exhausted and no more infections. Hugs. xxxxx

Onward and upward, Sylvi, lol! You've had a rum deal this year, I know how you're feeling, I've been unwell since August 1st and have no energy left. Just this morning in the shower, I couldn't even keep my arms up to wash my hair! But I've hardly eaten for weeks so I guess that's to be expected. Let's hope that all these nasty infections have done with you now ( at least the colder weather is good for killing off the bugs!) and you can look forward to a brighter Christmas and better 2018!
