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!

@midnightblue12

i looked like a complete fright! I have long very fine hair, it does not cope with having to lie on my back, in a heatwave, on hospital linen. Not able to use my arms & no one to help you wash, let alone wash your hair. I would have scared small children (had they been allowed to visit).

I did NOT look like our glamorous Pamela!

we had matching ankles though! 😂

@WilsonMilson I hope you have enough pain relief to sleep tonight!! I've just got in from picking the girls up after Lana del Reycon err in Hyde Park, late, but just glad they had a great time and arrived back safely!

i hope Jacob & your Mum are arriving today. They'll be so happy to see you!! 💕

Pamela you look lovely in that last photo. I'm glad you went out and about in the park yesterday and got some fresh air with your DH. I Hope tonight you get some rest and are in less pain. x

EarringsandLipstick · 10/07/2023 02:37

What an update OP! 💪 you have the most amazing smile - it literally shines out from all your photos. I hope you are having as peaceful a night as possible ❤️

catwithflowers · 10/07/2023 05:38

Faith, Hope and Love indeed. ♥️♥️♥️

God bless you, dear Pamela. Your courage is simply amazing. I hope you are further strengthened by your mum and Jacob arriving today. Xxx

WaterWall22 · 10/07/2023 06:24

Good morning. I hope last night was better than the previous one. Xx

RedDoughnut · 10/07/2023 06:42

Bloody Hell Pamela, what a rollercoaster!

I hope today is a much better day. I'm always convinced Mondays bring more action, especially in hospitals.

One teeny, tiny step forward if that's all you can manage.

Thinking of you

Good morning Pamela, I hope you managed to get some rest.
Such a beautiful photo 😊

Iloveringos · 10/07/2023 06:53

Good morning Pamela, hears hoping for a more comfortable day for you and your pain is more manageable xx

AutisticLegoLover · 10/07/2023 07:07

Here's hoping today is a less painful one. Your photo is beautiful and your courage astonishing. I asked my godparents to add you to their church prayer list and they have done so and are praying at home for you too as am I.
The sun is shining here on the edge of the Peak District and I'm glad you got out in the sunshine yesterday to the park.

Sending love, as always. Isabella x

Dear Pamela, I hope you had a comfortable night now that you have different pain meds. Thank you for sharing your little outing to Regents Park with us, you look absolutely beautiful.

herbaceous · 10/07/2023 07:46

You, lady, are jeffing amazing. After that terrible night, physically and spiritually, you got your shit together in spectacular fashion.

I’ve shared your story with my 14yo son (as he wanted to know what was making me all tearful). He’s rooting for you too, and always asks after you.

So now it’s two of us in York on Team Pamela.

Windy1234 · 10/07/2023 07:56

Sending you so much love, iv followed all of your threads. You are an amazing woman, wife and mother. You're such an inspiration and life is so cruel. My children are only very small, but you have made me appreciate everything in my life so much, as it really can be cruel. I am rooting for you with everything and constantly checking for updates. I hope you have a better day today x

sunglassesonthetable · 10/07/2023 08:06

It constantly amazes me what life throws at us. And the human spirit is amazing. You are amazing. ☀️

JE17 · 10/07/2023 08:21

Beautiful photo. What an amazing, inspirational lady you are. Sending you and your family lots of love x

OhFFS! · 10/07/2023 08:44

This post is always my first look every morning. I wasn't expecting to see your lovely photo from the park. I hope the fresh air and beautiful scenery lifted your spirits and that it made you tired enough to get some much needed sleep

YukoandHiro · 10/07/2023 09:36

How wonderful to see you outside in the fresh air. I hope you had a much better night and get positive news today about starting chemo this week

Andywarholswig · 10/07/2023 09:36

Hope you had a more comfortable night and managed to get some sleep. Thankyou for sharing the lovely photo, I think you look incredible considering everything you are going through. I hope that today is better and you are able to gather your strength for Wednesday

Captainhook3 · 10/07/2023 09:37

You never cease to amaze.
Praying for an improvement in your pain and discomfort.
You and your lovely family are never far from my thoughts.
With you every step of the way.
