thanks for the tip, Im not spending any of it until they confirm they havent made a booboo. Joke is, I got a hospital letter on top of a pile of post, dashed to open it, no worries, then without turning them over opened some brown tax envelopes, inside which was a cheque, made out to a bloke Ive never heard of who  has never lived at my house!  DRAT!  I had also slit the second brown envelope open, it was also for Mr Unknown person, who has never been here. We have a lot of HMO and student houses near here, and a lot of people working in food factories etc, who have come over from Eastern Europe, I know from google that our postcode covers some of those HMO lodging house type of places, so guess he may be either a student or temp resident, anyway, tax man said hed report it as wrong address, and leave their special squad to resolve it and get the money to the guy somehow.  Im always cautious cos years ago had a heavily indebted lodger, he had a bailiff turn up and repossess his car cos he hadnt paid his car loan, then he got court letters for not paying speeding tickets cos he never got the summons having moved address, then the other bailiffs kept turning up wanting to reposses my stuff and got quite aggressive when I said it wasnt his, even though I could prove I was resident landlady. He went back to France in the end.

Morning all. Been reading some posts and glad to see that Dizzle is on way to recovery. There are enough emotional battles we go thru and continue to do so. Sometimes I still do find it hard but we soldier on. Glad to see the end of this week - been suffering with gastrentritus and chest infection. Every week we have something or another to contend with and have to come to alot of realisation that life will never be the same. Sorry for the "downer" but I get fed up alot of the times due to my own expectations. But I am free of treatment and no recurrence so am thankful but feeling grotty 3 out of 7 days a week does get to me at times. Still suffering with pain in ribs and boob with swelling - had PET couple weeks ago and all fine but doesn't solve the issue or any explanation of why. Sigh..got that and fatigue for life. Guess I'm allowed a bit of self pity now and again. Will be back "up" again once I start to feel better from this infection. Life is tough but so are we all.xx

You poor thing.....my sister has had this recently...there's a lot going round. You are well within your rights to have down days and be fed up, I know that only too well. We can't all be happy and upbeat all the time especially with the sh*t pies life has thrown at us in recent times. But as you say no reoccurence and free of treatment so every cloud. Chin up :-) hope they get to the bottom of that pain you have...can be so frustrating xx

Hi jbains cbd is good as a pain killer for some people I've been on it for over a year (arthritis in my knee) if i forget to take it i soon know. Some of them taste terrible. If you do make sure you get reputable place.. Best wishes... Billy

Puppy is a good idea....my dog never leaves my side when I'm down. They sense it.... and can lift your mood in no time. I started taking CBD oil when I was first diagnosed and took it throughout treatment. It helped me so much with anxiety and cant help thinking it was why I coped with chemo so well or could just be coincidence. I definitely recommend it though. X

Thanks melamine, I'm definitely 100 times better :-) x
