Naff day

[Qwerty]

Just letting you know the twins are really poorly they have thrush in the mouth lots of blisters and bloody, ear infection and in lots of pain got meds from doctor Amoxicillin among meds so hopefully it might kick in by tomorrow, but when I rang tonight they were screaming their heads off. Dil mum is there for a few dys as we r away to Birmingham with eldest g/c to Cadburys tomorrow she has looked forward to it for so long, but I go with a heavy heart my best friend who had a mastectomy back in Novemberish has lung cancer and it's not looking good, we are all devastated and there is no consoling her OH she is 40 !!!! She sees the oncologist tomorrow 😢

Oh Qwerty, no wonder you've got a heavy heart. You must be devastated to hear that your friend's cancer has spread. There's not much you can do except offer whatever support she and her poor OH need. Do you know if the lung cancer is operable/treatable? She's so young.

IO can imagine you will be worrying about the twins while you are away. But as soon as the Amoxicillin kicks in I'm sure they'll start to feel better. What rotten timing, but DIL has her mum there to help and as you say, you and your GD1 have been looking forward to this trip for ages. Try to live in the moment and enjoy it - if you go home refreshed you will be better able to support your friend and help with the twins. Great big hug, my friend. xxx

Qwerty my heart aches for you, must be awful to watch your friend and her OH go through this, what a young age too, awful...

Your poor twins hope the meds kick in soon , and as you said her mam is there, easy for me to say but enjoy your day with your GD, sounds great fun, funny enough my lot were just asking to go there, have to see if there is a family ticket and a trip bus...

Sending hugs to you, sometimes it just all seems to come at once doesn't it.....xx

[Qwerty]

Thanks ladies much appreciated, Daisy she sees the oncologist tomorrow another day of waiting to hear results

My lovely best friend, I have mentioned before is now very poorly, there is nothing they can do. Prognosis is six months but they are going to try chemo to extend this. We were going on a trip to Chichester flower festival tomorrow which she is unable to go to but she rang me this evening to say have a lovely time, wear sensible shoes etc and I have to ring her when I get back. I love her to bits, she is being very brave

[Gemini]

Oh Qwerty, I'm so sorry about your friend. Oma is right though, treatments improve each day. We cried and cried when we got the diagnosis that OHs cancer had spread. She's still here.
Sending you love and your dear friend all the best.

I hope the poor little twins feel much better once the antibiotics kick in xxx

Plant I'm so sorry to hear about your best friend as well. Sad times xxx

Poor little babies. DD2 had this when we were on holiday in Portugal in 1982. Have they been given an anti fungal treatment for the thrush?

So much sadness. Sending sympathies to all those facing up to such hard events. It really puts one's own little troubles into perspective.
