My CM has found a lump in her breast which obviously she's worried sick about and has booked herself an appointment at a private hospital for Tuesday, she's told me this, not asked if it's ok iyswim. Now I know i'd be worried to death about finding a lump but I really cannot take this time off and DH would be unpaid which we can't afford. I don't want to sound like a heartless cow but she had Friday off at short notice for an uncles funeral and now this, would it be completely awful to ask her to rebook for Wednesday ?

oh, FAB! what entertainment, well done AC/troll (who may or may not hae one or three kids, a norland/ofsted registered nanny/childminder....

I LOVE how IMPOSSIBLE it was for dh to get a day off work at £750 a day; if £16,000 a month is what you HAVE to bring in, what are your outgoings?????

a fab example of how to whip up a frenzy about absolutely nothing, I love mn

AngelaChill · 04/09/2006 21:15

I'm glad it's been entertaining, it's caused me to feel like i don't want to say a word to somebody i've known for 2.5 years who is probably feeling very low right now and i'm tip toe ing around them feeling uncomfortable, but as long as it's entertained you that's the main thing.

As for a party, lets hope she's well enough and going out to celebrate not having cancer eh ?

I'm torn between worrying about how the cm got on and feeling that she probably doesn't exist, personally.
