Grrh, just lost the lengthy post I was typing. Still, it means I am no longer inspired to write at such length so you are spared! Lol.
DD, DH and I are off to RM Sutton tomorrow for the results of both scans (MRI and DEXA). Thankfully DH is at home between contracts and we will drive. (DD and I usually go by train as I hate driving long distances). I am concerned about the snow tomorrow though - heavy snow forecast for our area at 11am. We will be in Sutton before 10am, so that's okay and Sutton has only light snow forecast for the day. However, the travel on the way home might be tricky! Oh, well, we like adventures!
Honey, who is proud of her sunglasses smileys - thanks to Gwyn.

Hi Honey,
Sending you all my very best wishes for tomorrow,with plenty of sunshine
I dont think I have read any off your bloggs before so I dont really know your situation If I have and I have forgotten then please forgive me I have a terrible memory these days.
I Just wanted to wish you the best of luck tomorrow. I know going for scan results is very nerve racking . I pray for good news for you.
Thank you Suzanne. DD diagnosed with huge cyst on left ovary - size of a large melon - in April 2010. She was 16. Cyst removed and cancer not spread. Then another cyst popped up and it was removed in August 2010 along with omentum where there were visible dodgy cells, her appendix and some lymph nodes. Remarkably she still has most of her left ovary and all of her right one. They avoided doing a hysterectomy but she has two benign cysts between womb and bladder and one on the wall of the bowel in the pouch of Douglas plus some endometriosis. In April 2011 she had a laparoscopy to have some biopsies of cells because one of the cysts had grown. She is on treatment that, whilst it hasn't shrunk the cysts keeps the growth at bay and means she does not have to have a hysterectomy or a colostomy bag which would have to be permanent. On November 9th 2012 she had an op to remove an endometriosis cyst that was causing her so much pain her bowel it was waking her up in the early hours, every night. Pain has gone completely. In addition to this she has ME and Fibromyalgia. She is incredibly brave, never complains and is an inspiration.
Thank you for sharing this with me. It must be so awful for her and for you to have to go through all this. Your are right she is very very brave. I am so sorry that you are all going through all this my thoughts and prayers are with you all. I hope you get some good news soon.
I hope the journey and the visit to the RM in Sutton go well for you and your daughter. I'm keeping my fingers crossed on all counts. You haven't set a location but say it's a long way to Sutton. Hope the journeys go well.
Oh best of luck Honey - for scan results of course, also the trip! Drive carefully. Take lots of blankets/ warm gear to keep DD warm, seriously - just in case, maybe a hot flask of something too, and refill especially for that return trip. Fingers crossed for positive results...
Good luck today Honey! And wishing you good weather! We have had snow here already! My lovely bin man, collecting recycling yesterday, came back later with a nice big cardboard box that he flattened and tucked under my wipers to keep the screen clear. He is "keeping an eye on me" because I get weekly "medical collections"! Aren't people kind!
Glad it's not just me who sends posts into cyber space never to be seen again! We saw two postmen in SHORTS today - loopy! What a nice bin man! I dated one once!
Thank you for your good wishes, all went well - see my latest blog post.
Just read your reply to Suzanne! Oh how hard this must be for you! Much worse when it is your daughter! Keeping everything crossed for a good result today!

Hi Honey,
My thoughts are with you- it's all stressful enough without having to deal with the weather as well.
Thank you Chris. So sorry to hear about your daughter. It is so hard as a mother to watch your child suffer. All went well today - see latest blog post xxx
