Good morning to one and all,i hope that you are all enjoying the jubilee. I sat and watched the river pageant and it was something to see. It was superb and well worth watching. I won't apologise for being a royalist, i think the royal family is a lot better than having a president every four years.
I had the distirct nurse out yesterday to take the last 20 clips out. She was surprised when i told her how long i was in theatre. She was pleased with the scar and said there doesn't look to be any infection,thats a relief as i have enough problems with the rest of my body. After she had gone i started to feel very down. I was the same when the first lot of clips came out. I had a little bit of a snooze,but i still didn't feel top ho. After the pageant was over i went and had a bath and got into bed to watch tv. Hubby snuggled down as he had to get up ealy for work. I laid there and wept for what i don't know i just kept crying sadlyit woke my hubby and bless him he calmed me down.Then i settled down to sleep.
I am very uncomfortable this morning. Perhaps i'm being a bit of a worrier,i don't know.
Hope you all have a lovely bank holiday. xx

I am sorry to hear your day ended the way it did, and I hope you feel a bit better today, I went to a small do with some of the naysayers there, The one I have known the longest, and has helped me in other ways in the past, So I try to ignore her ignorance, anyway, I went to hers for (well I made it 3 hours) and left at 7 pm after watching the river boat show and all the rest some food etc I came home got in bed, and I was up till about 2am, then I slept till today till 2:30 in the afternoon, Everytime I would wake I would go right baack to sleep, It is really sad, when you enjoy your life in your dreams, than you do in real life when u r awake, How Blessed you are and am happy for you, That you have someone to wrap their arms around you and comfort you when you are down, Sending You ((HUGS)) from Me and a Mwah Mwah and Hope today is better for you. Myself, I am aching in every joint today and think I might take a shower if I get the motivation to, (OH GOD I WISH I had a Bath) would LOVE to Soak in warmth!!! anyway Never mind XX
Hi Sylvie, you replied to me earlier and I am grateful as I am new to this blogging, but I see that you are a great help to so many and have a great knowledge of ra, I agree just when things are ok ish suddendly you you want to cry, WHY? is it the meds or the ra? I can't make my mind up, but I don't like the fact that just when I really am looking forward to something I have to cry off and all because! What? I missed seeing my grandchildren recently and my daughter-in-law really cannot understand and doesn't want to she has older great grandparents who do alot more. I hope you soon feel better and can enjoy helping others again soon. Caggy
Caggy, you must explain to your daughter-in-law about your disease and show her leaflets to explain the fatigue and tiredness and the pain. I bet like a lot of us we don't tell people how bad it is for us. Try to arrange a time during the day when your at your best to see your grandchildren and if they are of a age then tell them granny has a disease and it exhausts. Find something that you can do with them that the other grandpaarents don't do.
love sylvi.xx
Big hug for you Sylvi, I hope you feel a little better now. It's probably your body reacting to the stress of having the staples removed At least ir's all done now and the only way is up Your OH is a star and you're blessed to have each other.
Hello everyone, i do feel better this afternoon,mind you i did have a sleep earlier. I think the leg is telling me to relax and let it heal. The only trouble with feeling brighter i want to do more and unhappily i can't for a few weeks.
This week i must start to find out clothes to take to cornwall. Usually by this time the case would be packed and toiletries brought. i will have to rely on the love of my life to sort out. I will start to look out what we need,i think i will have to write lists.
You have been through such a lot, may be its your body's way of letting go all your emotions you have locked away during your surgery. If your anything like me whilst I am going through a crisis I am upbeat and jovial. But as soon as its over I fall apart. I wondered if it was the same for you? I realise you still have a way to go yet in your recovery but it must have been a relief to get those staples out. I am sure your like the rest of us and shrug away any negative thoughts or emotions until there is a tearful wave that over takes you. I should know I has my tearful wave the other morning. It helps when you have an understanding shoulder though, Glad your feeling stronger. Recover quickly and take care x
Morning all, I have had a rough night with the knee. I am beginning to think the reason is i've overdone it again. I walked round the close, went to the spar and saw my daughter,then went round the allotment. So is it any surprise i'm suffering today.
Pete, my hubby did 24yrs in the army and i'm a royalist through and through. You must keep your sense of humour while your going through all your problems, and i wish you a good outcome.
Hobbles, i am just the same during a crisis i'm ok,its afterwards that i fall apart. I have had a rough night and a good howl as well.
My good wishes to everyone of you who has responded to my blogs. I feel you are all better friends to me than some who profess to be my friend here where i live. So a big cheer and thanks to you all.
No wonder your hurting today, that was a marathon for your knee. Rest well today, you have every excuse with the jubilee celebrations that are being televised today . Here's hoping that you feel better tomorrow x
