Give my best to Stu! ....and i know what you mean about the weed, ..every time i have that i crap on the carpet as well

DH is home with me, not comfortable, but at least he's getting man size portions of food!!!

i agree my mum died of cancer 2 weeks before i was 18 and i have to say it was a fight to get her into good care before she passed away.

Hey Stu hope it all went well yesterday and the pain issue gets sorted pronto as well.
Have a good rest now, I know I am a long way away and dont actually know you apart from on here and all, but I sincerely mean this, if there is anything I can do to help dont hesitate to ask ok.

On topic, yeah I think you are right about people thinking they are invincible - humans are essentially lazy and blase about these things until a remindng nudge comes along like a celeb in the news, strange though poor patrick swayze's situation didnt have peeps here running to the doc with rib pain.
~i expect even your own current situation has made one or two readers on here think "ooooh that reminds me, I must do something about that nagging groin ache" or summat.
Anyways, get well soon dear!

No disrespect meant to jady goody, but it seems to me to be the old princess diana syndrome - takes us away from the recession focus.

What I dont understand is how her hubby gets off lightly for being a rather horrid person, he goes to watch a chuffing footy match while his wife of one week is crying down the phone to her agent in the hospice saying "I'm scared of dying" WTF, shouldn't her hubby be by her side 24/7 with the kids?? HOW COULD HE GO TO A FOOTY MATCH WHILE HIS WIFE IS IN AGONY, SCARED AND DYING???
And I dont understand why the kids are being fobbed off with 'mummy's a bit poorly in a *normal* hospital" - sure they are very young, but they wont be thankful later when mummy suddenly vanishes - and in a few short years find out for themselves the real truth about what's going on.
I think its dreadful not being honest with those kids, and chuffing taking them to a footy match instead of being with mum, hell if I was dying I wouldnt care if it was my last breaths I would NEVER be too ill to see my kids.

I would think the hospital wouldn't want anyone there 24/7 with her. Sure they should know, if they are able to understand of course.

Yes of course you are right Carrie.
I am just as guilty as the next person whilst struggling with my own losses and difficulties to not understand how someone else acts completely differently just because we don't walk in each other's shoes.
All I know about jade goody is what i've read in the papers as I dont have tv, sometimes its easy to forget they only report what sells papers.

I have tried to avoid this post but hey Im here now….

I have very little knowledge of Jade, Im not a BB fan and I don’t have time to read tabloids, suffice to say Im devastated for anyone who is diagnosed as she is, god bless her.

The man she has chosen as her husband would not appear to be the best person to look after the children.

I hope those kiddies eventually find happiness, you can never get over the loss of your mother, especially at such a young age. This is an awful situation, which unfortunately, occurs all to often.

My thoughts are with Jade, and the kiddies.

Snap, I wrote a post on another dating site and was totally slated for daring to suggest Miss Goody should bow out from the glare of publicity now.Death should be a oprivate family affair, and I feel so sorry for her two young children.They have enough to contend with.

I just am bemused why poor wendy richards didnt get such a fan following or such media exposure regarding her cancer. Or patrick swayze and his cancer. Or michael j fox and his parkinsons disease. etc.etc.etc.
The general public never fail to bemuse me.
I guess it's down to who your publicist is, and who's flavor of the month.
What I find so very sad is give it 12 months (if poor jade is no longer with us then) just how many people will even recall who she was, her name, her children's names etc. The whole sad affair will sink into oblivion and be forgotten when new 'gossip' rears its ugly head.
