Glad she's allowing you to be with her.

How are you feeling today FF? Did you go and see your mum?

fairyfly · 17/01/2005 14:45

Look through yellow pages - I found a really nice place that does all those sorts of therapies that way. Personally I quite like the therapists that do reiki as well as they tend to do that at the same time as the massage - lovely
Glad you're ok.

NameChangingMancMidlander · 17/01/2005 14:51

Oh God, FF. Only just seen this thread. I'm so very sorry for you and yours. I hope treatment goes well.

Have a look in your Yellow pages or on Yell.com for complimentary / holistic / alternative therapists...

fairyfly · 17/01/2005 15:16

I cant find anything, im never like this, im slightly in a dream state and dont know what im looking for at all. Tried things under those three headings but nothing came up. I can imagine booking my mum in with a prostitute by mistake.

fairyfly · 17/01/2005 15:21

your county will do. Are you Cheshire based ?

NameChangingMancMidlander · 17/01/2005 15:26

yell.com have a 'Complimentary Therapies' classification. Or you can just type 'indian head massage' into the yell.com site and your location yourself. It churned out loads when I asked it for the same in Cheshire.

fairyfly · 17/01/2005 15:26

Yep, south Manchester/Cheshire, part of the cheshire set and constantly in cheshire life sipping champers

Yell.com search page Type Indian Head Massage into the 1st search box and your location into the 3rd.

NameChangingMancMidlander · 17/01/2005 15:27

How are you today Fairyfly? My mum got her date for chemo on monday - she starts next friday.

fairyfly · 19/01/2005 15:52

Im pretty down today, amynx. well not down just a little sad about it all. My father has just been to see me, i told him he knew where i was if anything was needed. He said he did know i was here for him and we had a hug. Made me want to cry for a second.
