Dear Pauline

Have picked up this thread and also your PM and am just so sorry that you have been through such a torrid time of it and it has taken so long to get your infection and pain under more control.  Not surprised that you are shedding tears in frustration but as you can see from the posts your forum buddies are hear to  listen and you made perfect sense to me.  I am sure you are glad to be back home and when feeling a little more relaxed I expect you will be telling the grandchildren all about your fire truck trip (not that you would have chosen to collapse in the bath in order to have this mode of transport to get you to the hospital).  It must have been the most scary of experiences.  Sending big hugs and a bunch of virtual flowers.  Jules x

Dear Pauline - so pleased you are home after such a stressful time.  Thinking of you sweetheart and wishing you well. X

Oh Pauline, what are we going to do with you?  Going through all that just to get some hunky firemen in your bathroom with you.  I hope you put something on before they arrived even if it was only slippers!  But joking aside, I do hope you're feeling better than you did.  You must have felt so afraid especially when you came round but luckily you had your mobile, as well as your senses, with you.  I hope the hospital have sorted you out especially with the pain.  Don't worry about being "dis-jointed" when writing although you're still making sense to me.  But do also remember that we all get times like that; only yesterday I thought to myself "oh that's a good idea, I'll write that down" and then promptly forgot what it was.  I've still not remembered so it couldn't have been such a good idea after all.

Do take care Pauline and don't forget we are always here when you want to chat or cry with frustration.

Love Carol xx
