Introduction

Good Evening to all you lovely people at the Great WA Family, as always do so hope that you are all keeping both safe and well.

As always thank you all so very much for all your kind messages and prayers for my wife. This week's message will be about what has happened, with regard to her health, as you will see.

The Last Few Days

Yvonne has had a number of tests and scans in the past week. At least two biopsies, a Kat Skan and an MRI scan. She has also been moved from Burton to Derby, as the facilities are better there, it did take over fourteen hours for an ambulance to take her to the hospital, which did not impress me.

Yesterday morning before I went to fetch the gang to go to football, my son phoned to tell me that the results of the MRI scan were known, this was shock number one, it was good of him as he knew what my reaction would be.

Yvonne has a tumor at the base of her skull. I went mental shouting, swearing and other things, however it did help me to get the original shock out of my system. As yet it is not known what type of tumor it is.

When I get bot back from the match my Daughter had more bad news.

Yvonne has clots on her lungs and the cancer has been confirmed, in other words the poor love is in a right mess. I did know that they were going to give her some blood thinners. They have decied to refer it to the "End of Life" team, forget the proper word, but I can no longer mince words. do appreciate that it could be some time yet.

At the moment the dietician is sorting out a regime to build up her strength, as at the moment her heart would not take operations or too much proddding and poking.

As you can appreciate it was all rather a shock, but writing this has helped me to vent out my frustration.

I have manged to do a couple of half-hour spells in the garden which has done me a power of good, just some general weeding and shrub pruning.

The new settee has now been assembled, the old one removed thanks to my granddaughters husband, who also sorted out finishing assembling the new one, as my old bones would not let me!!

Today has seen me attend the Town's Annual Remembrance service, this afternoon I helped lead the one in a local village, which has family ties going back around two hundred years.

After the service this afternoon I went straight to the Hospital, when I got there I had a lovely surprise my eldest Grandson was there, I have not seen him for a number of months for a number of reasons so it was great to see him, his Nan was pleased. She was fairly quite, still getting over the move, not sure how much she knows, but she has agreed to be fed by tube.

It will not surprise you that I have barely given the business a glance this week.

The Next Few Days

I will concentrate on visiting the hospital daily, fortunately I have nothing on the diary this week, apart from tomorrow morning when I will attend the two mintues silence in the Town.

It would be nice if I am able to at least hav a look at the business, but at the moment it is very much one step at a time.

Conclusion

So sorry to burden you with my problems, but on a selfish front it has cleared my head somewhat.

Be Happy, Healthy and Wealthy

Please do stay safe.

God Bless

Stuart

Dear VH

I'm glad you had a place to vent and make you feel better. You need to keep yourself healthy to deal with everything mentally and physically. Stress can be a killer itself!

I guess it was a shock!!! You had no idea about the cancer did you? I guess that is what accounts for her illness that prompted you to take her to the hospital.

Fourteen hours for the hospital ride???? I would be less than impressed as well. That is crazy!!!! Speaking of time, it seems that it also took them a lot of time to diagnose her. I guess both are a mote point.

Business should be the last thing on your mind. You have enough on your plate. At what point do they just let her come home?

Keeping you both in thoughts and prayers.
Always
Your VW

Hi VW,

I guessed some time ago that it was cancer, but would she seek treatment, would she heck!!

Pressed the wrong button. They are taking their time to decide what to do, unless they have already done that and are just waiting and hoping that they do not have to do anything at all.

Possibly a little unfair, but I am anyhow at the moment.

Appreciate your thoughts and prayers.

As always,
Your VH

Keep us posted and vent if you need to.

Hugs

At the moment hugs are what I need.

Here ya go.....

Thanks Babe. x

Stuart

Stuart, best wishes for you and Yvonne at this time! Prayers for you and your family as you move forward this week.

Thanks Howard.

Dear Stuart, I'm glad that you being able to write this and share it with us has helped to clear your head. There is nothing selfish nor burdensome to others about that. You're in my thoughts.
Take care.
Melissa

Thanks, Melisa,

You're so kind, my first tears of the day.

God Bless,

Stuart

You are not a burden, Stuart. My heart goes out to you. Will send positive energy your way. You have a heavy load, and hope you can find ways to lighten it. We are all wishing you well and sending prayers for your wife. It's good your family can help you a bit. Courage, my friend -- As I often say, "this, too, shall pass."

Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful comments, which are very much appreciated.

Please do not worry about telling us about this, Stuart!

I know it can help to vent and write about stuff after dealing with my own iddy biddy breast cancer issue a few months ago.

I am so sorry about what you, your wife, and your family are going through.

I'm sending thoughts, good wishes, and prayers for all of you.

All my best,

Teri

Thank you so much Teri, hope that your own cancer has been resolved.

Prayers to you over this.

Take care,

Stuart
