rdfreakWell, I just went to the docs this morning and got my first flu injection (that also contains the swine flue vaccine) and also a blood test for the iron and vitamin D.
The doc agreed with me that having the flu injection would be a good idea as my imune system is crap with all my defficiencies now, also the fact that I'm often on public transport with people coughing and spluttering. For both needles, i lay down as is usual for these days.
I also got my ears cleaned out and whilst getting that done, an 8th month old baby came into the nurses room who couldn't breathe, was placed on oxygen and had an ambulence called; poor little guy, I hope he's OK; some kind of virus, I didn't find out what it was. --
Then we went to foresthill where i tried to find some canisters I can keep cooking ingredients in; didn't find any really.
But we did go to coles, and I found me some vanilla chy tea; nice, so cool! :) going to make some soon.
Also, Mum told me some sad news that Carrol was told yesterday nothing more can be done for her. :( The evil evil cancer has spread to her liver. :( I just didn't know what to say. Carol has always been a family friend. When I'd go up there with sister and parents as a youngster, we'd go and sleep in their bed when we got tired until parents decided to leave for home. I've known Carrol all my life; I don't know what I'm going to do; the "gaggle" (the group of friends parents are in, including her and her husband) don't know what they'll do; it won't be the same.
She's been such a positive person through all this and all she wants is to live. she's only 53; same age as my two grandparents when they passed away.
I feel I want to do something but i don't know what. I don't see them often these days as obviously gone are the days us kids have to trail after our parents, but I just want to, at the least, let her know that she is in my thoughts and prayers. I may call Mum later and ask her if she'd mind a phone call from me. She's one of these people that is very sensative with talking about it. She knows I know but as to how much, I don't know.
I'm sure I mentioned in here that I hate cancer; it needs to die itself; so so so many people I know, or have known of have died from it. :( -- anyway guess all we can do now is cherish the time we have with her and viceversa. :(
