Messymascot's faith in humanity and ginger safe haven

Morning all, happy to report that the bleeding seems to have stopped🤞🤞🤞. He’s leaving the blood thinner until tomorrow, not vital he takes them, more of a preventative. We were both invited to take part in a trial and he was found to have atrial fibrillation. It means risk of a stroke is higher hence the medication. Wasn’t really a surprise as he had been tested years ago and the hospital lost the results.🙄.
I’m off to see my friend this morning for a natter as Wednesday has rolled round again. Is it me or is the week shorter, sign of getting old I suppose.
Have a good day, all.💙

Hopefully a better day ahead for Mr G.

I don’t think the weeks are getting shorter all, it’s more that our days just seem to be getting busier.

I have a theory the reason the weeks are shorter is that they are progressively a smaller part of your life ,based on the fact the summer holidays lasted forever as a kid . :(

This is true. When you are 10, a year is a tenth of your life. When you are 60 it is a sixtieth of your life. It's all relative to how long you have been alive.

Just got a call from another mates daughter, he’s the one who had a tracheotomy and also has cancer. He’s gone downhill fast, his body is switching off and has been given just weeks to live. He will shortly be going into LOROS for end of life care. This unremitting situation with my closest friends is eating away at me I’m afraid. This will probably be the fourth loss and funeral of close friends in this year alone…….

Just heard again from her, he’s now too week to move, now projecting days not weeks, life can be very cruel especially on those left behind. Thinking of you at the moment @Barnfred 55 ……

Hopefully his passing is as peaceful as it can be now. It is painful beyond belief for friends and family but all they can do is focus on each day and look out for each other.
