Aw, you still look beautiful. Keep fighting, you have an army behind you.

KeziaOAP · 09/07/2023 21:41

Well done on getting out albeit painful, wheelchairs aren't very forgiving.
Hope you manage to get some sleep tonight.

You are a true super-hero, Pamela.

Like many, I have been following since your first thread and wake up each morning wondering how you are. As soon as I get home from work, I check in to see if there is an update. I have even shared your story and photos with my husband... and we are both rooting for Team Pamela. Keep strong, keep fighting.

Thinking of Kerr, Jacob and your lovely family back in NI. xx

Glad you got a little fresh air and see some greenery. Good for the soul. I’m wishing you half decent sleep tonight and more effective pain relief from here on in xx

Pleased you managed to get out, well done Pamela 😊💪💞

Are you having Gem/Cis? DH found it nowhere near as bad as he'd been expecting in terms of side effects, I hope that whatever you are having is kind to you.

Allwelcone · 09/07/2023 21:49

Hi Pamela,
I have been quietly reading your updates and willing you on. You are inspirational. You and your family are in my thoughts alot. Thinking of you every day and hoping your pain is under control soon.
Lots of love, Jillian from Dublin

midnightblue12 · 09/07/2023 21:55

I know this is probably the last of your concerns, but honestly your hair is looking lovely! Very healthy and shiny. If I was in your position I fear my much loved hair would look like a little birds nest hanging on for dear life on the top of my head 😅🙈

Keep going lovely, you're doing amazingly!

Orangebadger · 09/07/2023 21:55

Sending love from London Pamela. I really hope they get your pain under control and that you can get some good rest tonight xx

girlswillbegirls · 09/07/2023 21:55

I love your smile Pamela.
Going outside to see the trees and the sounds of the birds. You are truly inspirational.
Hoping you will get a decent night sleep tonight. Will keep thinking of you x

Vebrithien · 09/07/2023 21:57

It is wonderful to see you about and about. Well done!

Tonight, I send you the ancient words from the service of Compline...

"Before the ending of the day,
Creator of the world, we pray
That you, with steadfast love, would keep
Your watch around us while we sleep.

 	From evil dreams defend our sight,
 	From fears and terrors of the night;
 	Tread underfoot our deadly foe
 	That we no sinful thought may know.
 	 
 	O Father, that we ask be done
 	Through Jesus Christ, your only Son;
 	And Holy Spirit, by whose breath
 	Our souls are raised to life from death."
cheesenotoast · 09/07/2023 21:59

Oh Pamela , You’re outside breathing the air in one of Londons beautiful parks
hoping you have a better nights sleep and feel stronger tomorrow

Rainbow1901 · 09/07/2023 21:59

It's great that you got out and about! Nature can be a wonderful panacea when you just need a different perspective or physical view to make you think about something other than how poorly you are feeling.
Trial and error though as you found out - but this was your first trip out for a while and you know for next time - to find a gold plated, softy cushioned lined, air suspension state of the art wheelchair!! 😊We MNners will see what we can arrange!!
Seriously though, you are simply amazing and your courage just shines through all the adversity!! Sleep tight tonight!!

Iwantanapnow · 09/07/2023 22:00

Lovely photo Pamela.
I pray you can get comfortable and have a better night tonight 💕💕

speluncean · 09/07/2023 22:02

You are amazing to have your hair and make up done !!!

ltappleby · 09/07/2023 22:05

You look lovely, well done for getting out and about. Wishing you a better night tonight and a better week, next week.

Jasminesmellingcandles · 09/07/2023 22:06

You look incredible Pamela, well done for getting up and then out, go you 💜.

TheNinthLock · 09/07/2023 22:09

I am in awe of you! Looking great and the fresh air must have been lovely 😊

backtobedforme · 09/07/2023 22:09

You look beautiful. So please you managed to get out. You are amazing and so inspiring. I hope you manage to get comfortable and get some sleep tonight. Sending you lots of love 💕
