hi cafe and co

cafe - you must be exhausted! Did you sort out everything finally at home?

Hi! to everyone else!

Am so gutted that I am now ill during DD1's return to the UK! Sod's Law!!! Won't be able to see my family for a while! (Lily is looking after me from a distance, bless her!)

Hello MrsShrek,hello stars, hello jynier!

what's troubling you jynier?

stars- dd sounds like a blast whenever she's around

nothing sorted here, just an unending state of terror I know it's right that they negative mark, and don't let you through til you get around 65% even after negative marking, but that's very improbable at the moment. I am just so grumpy! please forgive grumpfulness

I'm lurking but reading and nodding. MIL died early hrs this morning so am not v chatty, sorry.

Oh gosh MrsShrek I don't know what to say. I am so, so sorry - that's terrible. (((( ))))) it sounds so trite to say I am very sorry, but I am. You've been through so much. This is a safe place for you to talk if you want to, I remember when exP's mum died it was very difficult as he reacted very badly to it, thoughts with you, DH and your family x

MrsShrek - so very sorry about your MIL; may she Rest in Peace. Sending sincere condolences to you and your family. Your husband must be devastated - give him a hug from me! x

he's been talking non stop for 3 hours
we've hugged, we've cried together, we've talked about all sorts of memories. It's still surreal though. keep thinking that next week it will all be back to normal again

Enough of that. what are the rest of you up to? cafe, it all sounds like hard work and stars, are you on incessant partying holiday by any chance?
jynier, thank you . Thinking what Mini said tbh, can't you go to the bbq and not spread germs? midwife, you partygirl!!

good to hear littlekitty is sleeping (what have you done to her? spiked her milk? )
sorry brain now had its 40 seconds of working properly for today, scuse me if I've mised people it's not intentional. hope you are all sleeping

Aaw, dear Mrs! - hope that you can all get some decent rest tonight; probably won't be easy for you! x

I can't sleep knowing that my beloved 2DDs and 3GC are just up the road and I can't go near them!!! DD1, her H and darling little GD are leaving on Sunday to spend the last week of their holiday somewhere else; am cursing myself for being ill!!!

So sorry to hear about your sad loss Mrs. (())s for both you and Shrek. It's good that you are both talking you memories.
Jynier get yourself a small tent, park it on the lawn a little away from main happening and get them to wait on you.
Cafe what is Iris?

Morning! Sorry to hear about MIL Mrs. Hope your DH feels better thus morning after some sleep.

It must be hard to get through Cafe - I don't know how you do it to be honest.

Jynier - why can't you see the DGCs? I don't understand why you can't? Is it something really serious & contagious?

Morning everyone else! I'm still tired too old for this partying malarkey

Mini - Iris is a film about Iris Murdoch & Alzheimer's. Kate Winslet plays the young Iris & Judi Dench plays the old Iris & Jim Broadbent her partner. Brilliant film!!

Ah yes, That Iris. I was thinking it was some clever medical acronym.

Ha ha yes - acronyms! During my midwifery training we did medical & surgical placements & a friend asked what ARM meant in some notes as for us that means breaking someone's waters. The nurse looked bewildered & replied arm, you know, attached to the shoulder?!! stupid student midwife

midwife

Oh Mrs, oh I'm so sorry. After all you have been through. I'll say some for your family and mother-in-law. I wish we could do something. I don't know what to suggest. x

Mini, Iris is the film depicting Iris Murdoch's life. She had Alzheimer's and was cared for by her husband, the writer John Bayley. I think it was written by him actually.

oops, silly kitty. Took so long to send that post. Totally redundant.

Don't worry Kitty it MUST NOW BE TRUE!

fanks themidwife

at 'ARM'

jynier, agree you should go and see them - doctor's orders! take a whopping dose of vitamin c (depending on symptoms). Most GI things are just in your own microbiome so thus unless it's some particularly virulent virus, you are not contagious.

Is at bar looking at the beach feeling a tad tispy dp is nicking beer glasses fuck sake i cant him anywhere

Go Stars tipsy at 2pm!! like me on the train Monday

Hahaha! cafe! I have been taking everything!!!

Resigned to the fact that I won't be able to see them as still not well.

For anyone affected by Alzheimer's, there will be a play on Radio 4 tomorrow afternoon at 2.15 p.m. entitled "Notes to Self." It's based on real experiences (according to the write-up in RT).
