UnlikelyAmazonian's DS is gravely ill

PiranhaMorgana · 17/05/2012 20:40

Please pray for UA's son,4yo ,who has just been diagnosed with Leukaemia and is on his way to Bristol Children's Hospital this evening.
UA is currently banned from MN after an altercation on Relationships,but she has continued lurking and really misses the support which helped keep her strong for her DS since her very abusive xh disappeared 4 years ago.
She is a very dear friend of mine and her DS is her entire life.She is absolutely devastated and has no family.

Oh Bloody Nora! Angry Sad
UA, I hope your ds gets through this as quickly as possible and with the smallest amounts of pain and trauma possible.
I will light a candle xx
I support the unbanning too.

Normally only lurk but couldn't read and run. My thoughts are with UA and her ds. Also supporting unbanning her so she can access much needed help advice and support. Will report too

Praying for UA and her DS x

CiderwithBuda · 18/05/2012 07:55

Oh no! I remember UA very well. Tried to meet up with her once but I had to cancel.

I am about an hour from Bristol too if she needs anything.

Please unban her MNHQ.

Hope she manages to get hold of a laptop. Or she could buy an iPad if she can afford it. She could download books too and stuff for her DS.

BawdyStrumpet · 18/05/2012 08:05

Oh how awful! My thoughts and prayers are with them...

Peachy · 18/05/2012 09:30

Oh the poor, poor sould!

They should lift her ban, exceptional circumstances.

I am off today but would eb happy to pop over to bristol any day from moonday as it is not far from me, and take anything she needs. My MN persona is fairly well known and I have some experience of leukaemia (cousin died from it, other cousin survived it) so could someone please pass on my offer and
my email which is (usual MN format ) peachesand cream at bt internet dot com. I don't know if an appeal will be raised but happy toa ct as a hub if needed, or just visit for comfort

Poor, poor family- leukaemia is one evil thing

roguepixie · 18/05/2012 09:31

This is such sad news. I am saying prayers for UA and her DS and will light a candle at Mass on Sunday.

I cannot imagine the hell that she is going through. The pain and desperation must be unbearable.

Please MNHQ, please unban her. To leave her outside a community that can, and wants to, support her is unconscionable. Whatever has been said in the past (and I have no idea what happened) is just that ... in the past. Let's move beyond it and get UA back on board and receiving the support and help she needs.

ComradeJing · 18/05/2012 09:36

Oh poor UA and her dear son.

Sending best wishes, thoughts and prayers.

perfumedlife · 18/05/2012 09:37

UA am thinking and praying for your boy, so very sorry you are both going through this.

MNHQ you need to do the right thing here.

Whatnamethistime · 18/05/2012 09:42

Wishing UA little boy a speedy recovery.

I'm only an hour from Bristol - sadly I'm at a funeral today and tied up tomorrow - if she hasn't managed to get a laptop by Sunday can you pm me and I'll dig out my old notebook.

There are a few keys missing but she would be welcome to borrow it.

Piranha ther is a Sn Support group on FB which ahs many MN posters, and two who have experience of leukaemia- she would be more than welcome if she wants to join up in lieu of MN posting

orangina · 18/05/2012 10:31

Oh, I'm SO sorry to hear this. Have lurked on many of UA's original threads re: her EA other half, and I think she is fab and strong (know nothing about ban etc).

Sending massive healthy vibes for the full recovery of her DS, you will both be in my thoughts.

orangina · 18/05/2012 10:33

Piranha, please keep us updated on her son's progress if you can and if UA is happy for you to do s... will check in regularly.

exexpat · 18/05/2012 10:37

I don't know UA but I live very close to the Bristol Children's Hospital (about a 20-min walk) so if there is anything I can do, just let me know.
