Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?
Backache, tummy ache, headache. I think it's all related to being on crutches, in a boot and less active. My posture is all skewed. I've lost my appetite too. Just generally feeling a bit rubbish. Obviously this pales into insignificance with what Mrs SG98 is facing, so I'm not expecting sympathy. Just a bit fed up.

Storm Angus - another 2 fence panels destroyed, thanks very much
Technology: just when you think you've got everything you need, you find the bit you bought earlier doesn't work with the software, so new bit ordered. Another couple of days not being able to use my stuff.

Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?
Absolutely fuming, just been speaking to a friend in work - she is currently doing her car lessons and test.
She told me the she keeps being told off for checking her blind spot when moving off from lights, roundabouts etc... when she explained she was looking for a "Ryan" (Me - a biker) I felt happy that at least one of them is looking out for us... not too good that both her instructor and examiner were questioning her on being observant. Looks like there's nothing down for us... |

Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?
SG.
Unless I missed it, you have not said what your wifes diagnosis is. To give you a positive, my wife was diagnosed with breast cancer back in 2007, the treatment was horrid and has left us with issues that will never be properly resolved. Both in her self esteem and long term effects of the radio therapy. But I have had the pleasure of 9 years more time with her than I had any right to expect. Yes it is a stressing time, you need to be strong to support your missus. But don't be afraid to ask friends/family to help support you.

Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?
Mum in law had it 8 years ago, went through a double mastectomy. She's still going strong, and I'm about to buy her grandchildren a karaoke machine for Christmas which I fully expect her to be using by boxing day with the kids.

Hope the op is soon SG. Did they give any clue about waiting times? Can't imagine it'll be that long. Stressful none the less. We're all rooting for you and Mrs SG!
