The story of my ovarian cancer discovery is here

This is such an important health issue - there's a reason why OC is called the 'silent killer'. I really want more women to be aware of what few symptoms there are (I wasn't).

This is my story. I hope it's a long one.

That's great news that you may be able to go home tomorrow. Fingers crossed! x

Oh fingers crossed that you get home tomorrow and that your care plan is in place.🤞🏻. My mum needed a hospital bed when she returned home after her stroke, and it was delivered very quickly.

Oh good news! Hope they get everything in place for it to happen and you can get some of the things you want to eat Smile

Sadly won't happen today as care plan not ready but may get home release tomorrow. Though Dd has dire rear so maybe not a good idea and I think I have ascites so may need draining. I do wish just one thing would go right.

Oh TQ, I am sorry that you can't go home today hopefully the stars will align for tomorrow.

Wintersnowdrop · 12/07/2019 13:40

Sorry to hear that you won’t get home today. Hope your dd is feeling better soon.

Bloodybridget · 12/07/2019 14:43

That is a shame - hope your DD gets over the dire rear very quickly and that you can be drained, disconnected and released soon x

MilesJuppIsMyBitch · 12/07/2019 17:07

Fingers crossed they get you home tomorrow, & that your DD's bum gets better Glitterball

iVampire · 12/07/2019 22:41

Hope you get home tomorrow

I’m running (so you don’t have to) but even if I run well (always unlikely in summer months) I’ll be more pleased to hear that you have walked into your own home

checkmaid · 12/07/2019 23:18
