robl12 Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 That is terrible news Sean. I will be thinking of you and your family. It is a terrible place to be, was there a couple of years ago my Gran was in Tavistock hospital and we went down from Scotland for the weekend to spend some time with her because the end was near and she died the following wednesday after we had been down.

Lady Ferguson Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 One of my best friends has just been diagnosed with breast cancer. It's just so awful and a real shock - she's only 48 and outwardly fit and healthy. She's got 6 months of radiotherapy ahead and driving to Bristol every day for a month. I am so sorry for what you're going through, Sean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lady Ferguson Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 Every day Mandy?? That sounds like a serious dose.... I'm quoting what she told me yesterday and she was in such a state of shock (she's a stunning, tall, leggy blond and the last person you'd expect to become seriously ill). But, I'm taking her back to the consultant on Friday for a 'fact finding' appointment. The lump has grown another 2mm in just two weeks so I think they're are anxious to hit it hard and quickly so I understand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deere-est Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 All the best to TractorNAN810, hope she is out of pain soon and and that goes for everybodies relatives who have been mentioned over the last couple of days in this thread. For me, hearing about a local farmer who has worked hard all his life. . http://www.thisiswiltshire.co.uk/news/headlines/3797265.Crash_victim_was_local_farmer/ A previous boss of my mates Dad who has fond memories of hand loading conventional straw bales on a four wheeler being pulled by a Fordson Major, I bet they really were the days as well.
