3:54 am
sprite

hello my dear friend. What happened?
3:56 am
grannyrose

3:56 am
sprite

I noticed you weren't here yesterday. That is really sad news, darling. *hugs* for you both. Was it sudden?
3:58 am
grannyrose

not really. she has been treated for melanoma. but it metastisied to her spine, lungs, oesophagus.
3:59 am
sprite

oh dear. Such an aggressive cancer, melanoma. Can they keep her mostly painfree?
4:00 am
grannyrose

the staff are wonderful. still trying to keep her comfy. she has a syringe in a machine delivering morphine all the time but they are still having to top her up
4:01 am
sprite

*hugs*
4:05 am
grannyrose

thanx sweetie. i am pretty spaced out by this. so is don.
4:06 am
sprite

no wonder. It is so sad to lose a dear one like this, and to see her in pain.
4:29 am
rubyfoo

Just back from a new and more complete scan and I think the news is good. The thingie in my liver appears to be benign but I need to speak with the oncologist. The report is full of complex French medical terminology so I will need help with understanding it. And my left lung has ""voluminous' liquid in it.
4:29 am
sprite

benign would be good, ruby. I will pray that will be the outcome. *hugs*
4:30 am
grannyrose

{{hugs}} dear ruby. yes benign is good. a bit of fluid in the lung is easily treated.
4:31 am
rubyfoo

they just put in a straw and suck it out, right? lol

4:03 pm
zoozzoom

It is going okay at the moment thanks, Soodle.How about your good self?
4:05 pm
Soodle

Still this side of the ground, Zooz! Better than the alternative! I frequently think of you & wonder how you are coping after your recent bereavement. ((((Hug))))
4:07 pm
zoozzoom

Thanks, Soodle. Can not believe that is over a year ago now. My mother has coped with it very well bless her.

Back again
4:11 pm
Soodle

(((Zooz) time can be irrelevant - a day, a week, a year. It's still terribly difficult. And - my darling daughter & I spent a glorious week in Gran Canaria in April. Unless 6 numbers hop up in the lottery - that's my lot for this year!
4:11 pm

4:15 pm
Soodle

Up up????? Sheesh. I'm stressed! Lol
4:16 pm
MollyL

Ah, understandable. It's hard to be away from home when you have sick elders.
4:18 pm
Soodle

<----- happy to stand in line after Zooz to win a hat of money on the lottery!
4:18 pm
Anniebrook

*right behind Soodle*
4:19 pm

Form an orderly queue, Babblers......
4:19 pm

Annie, you have to stand in line with me. Unless you play the European lottery. There is 80 million in Powerball tonight. I'll split it with you.
4:19 pm
Soodle

How is Bobby, Annie?
4:20 pm
Anniebrook

Bobby is complaining of a backache (he never complains)--to the doctor on Wednesday
4:21 pm
Anniebrook

I will be happy to stand in line with you.
4:22 pm
Soodle

Oh dear. I complain constantly. Nobody takes a whit of notice, because I'm a whinger. It's a different story when a non- complainer complains. I hope he is ok Annie.
4:23 pm
Anniebrook

Me too. I hope its a strain but I must check it out. Thanks for youir good thought.
4:24 pm
Soodle

((((Annie & Bobby))))
4:24 pm
Anniebrook

Thanks for the hugs. We felt it all the way over here.
4:24 pm
Soodle

:-)
4:24 pm
MollyL

Annie, my son is like yours. He never complains and is very rarely sick. So when he does complain, or is sick, it freaks me out.
4:25 pm
Anniebrook

I am trying not to freak out. He is very rarely sick also.
4:28 pm
Soodle

Freaking out never helped anybody (said the biggest freaker-outer of all time). Annie - I'll be thinking of you both next week.
4:28 pm
bichon

As opposed to my son, who at 42, never goes to the dentist or doctor until it is critical
4:29 pm
Anniebrook

thanks, Soodle
4:29 pm
Soodle

Bich - I'm with him on the dentist thing....
4:31 pm
bichon

Okay, how much money did we put into his mouth, especially with braces
4:32 pm
Soodle

I was being treated by a dentist once. I bit him, drawing blood. He refused to treat me afterwards, unless I was sedated. So next time, he gave me IV Valium. Whee!!!! I loved every whir of the drill!!
4:33 pm
Soodle

I can see how people can get addicted to valium.
4:34 pm
MollyL

My dentist, who is a God, recently had to retire early due to illness. His replacement is just not as good. I am lost. I have gone to the same "dental family" (my dentist and his dad) my whole life.
4:38 pm
bichon

I love my dentist and my hygenist
4:45 pm
Anniebrook

I am up to the dreaded "re"s
4:52 pm
Soodle

I have a pathological fear of snakes, dentists & hairdressers.
4:54 pm
Anniebrook

I can understand all 3, Soodle. I think hairdressers comes in second.
4:55 pm
flosey

hi all, back to hopefully finish up!! I'm right with you on the snakes, Soodle - have never been able to shake that silly fear
4:55 pm
Anniebrook

HI flosey
4:56 pm
flosey

Hi Annie, I so seldom see you
4:57 pm
Anniebrook

I am usually here in the morning when you are probably asleep.
4:58 pm
Anniebrook

Well I should say, I hope you are asleep
4:58 pm
Soodle

Lol! St Patrick should have banished Dentists & hairdressers when he was dealing with the snakes. Lol. Bedtime for me! G'Night all.
4:58 pm

yes, likely, Annie
4:58 pm

5:11 pm
Anniebrook

Molly, Beautful tribute in your profile
5:11 pm
flosey

what is the meaning of your list of names, Molly?
5:12 pm
Anniebrook

They are the 9 people who were killed during a Bible Study meeting in Charleston, SC
5:12 pm
MollyL

They are the names of the victims in the recent Charleston shooting. I got the idea from Soodle's profile. The names in hers are the names of six Irish students at Berkely who were killed when the balcony they were on collapsed.
5:13 pm
flosey

wow, I hadn't heard of that shooting, was it directed at a particular religious group?
5:13 pm
Anniebrook

Black people.
5:14 pm
flosey

oh dear, when, oh when will we ever learn to live together in peace
5:14 pm
Anniebrook

They were massacred by a 21 year old racist.
5:14 pm
flosey

how dreadful
5:16 pm
MollyL

I got an email from a friend trying to come to terms with the Charleston tragedy. She quoted Dr. King... “The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice."
5:16 pm
flosey

what has a 21 year old really understand about the old racist attitudes
5:16 pm
flosey

what DOES
5:18 pm
MollyL

Another young man named Dylan (the other was Columbine) goes down in history as a gunman. That name is going to get a bad rap.
5:18 pm
Anniebrook

It is my grandson's name.
5:19 pm
Anniebrook

He is a kind, loving 14 year old. There is Dylan Thomas.
5:19 pm
flosey

and it's a lovely name Annie - make no connection
5:20 pm
Anniebrook

I dont think I will. Dylan Edward, that's his name. Nice kid.
5:20 pm
MollyL

Sorry, Annie. Just something I heard about the names Dylan and Caitlyn
5:21 pm
Anniebrook

Molly, please say what you heard about the name. I am curious. I know you meant no harm,
5:21 pm
flosey

Caitlyn also a lovely name
5:29 pm
MollyL

I just heard that the name is going to get a bad reputation since it has been the name of two young shooters. Some people make those associations. Others don't. No matter, one can't help what their name is, unless they chose it personally (Jenner)
5:29 pm
Bugsaw

I have a nephew Dylan and a son Thomas. We holidayed together when they were babies learning to feed themselves. We put their high chairs together and called in Poet's Corner.
5:30 pm

I love it. Poet's Corner.
5:30 pm
Anniebrook

Thanks for the explanation but I wont fret about it.
5:31 pm

Our Dylan is a lovely young man who is working to make the world a better place.
5:32 pm
Anniebrook

Our Dylan is in High School and works with special needs children.
5:34 pm
Bugsaw

I can see Molly's point that some people associate names with people they have known and not cared for and like names of people who are special to them. I just don't think that this is enough. There aren't very many Elvises in the world and people thought pretty highly of the original.

frack, gr. I am so sorry

I am so sorry granny. Even if she is not awake when you are there, talk to her in case she is able to hear. Most can even when they can't show you they are awake. It is comforting to them.

bugs, stiddy. it is so hard because she doesn't want us to leave. but she starts to doze off when the morphine kicks in. and we want her to rest as much as possible.
