I don't suppose there is anything on the box tonight.

Put the teddy on it!

Unfortunately morw countries will join in banning it for now even though they have been told it's safe. It's a bit like Chinese whispers. Spain has now stopped the AZ as well.

It's all political shenanigans.
Never did trust the EU.

Hate to post this so late but MrsD has had her scan results.
Sadly 2 problems.
Breast cancer confirmed. They are planning to move quickly but it will be a day or 2 before we know exactly what they will do.
The other problem is compression in the spine. They had planned to transfer her to Liverpool Walton Neuro but then the cancer took precedence .
As I have said.....I am not after sympathy.
Stay strong my friends and sleep well.

So sorry to hear about your news Dave. I understand how you may feel and I just want to say to trust the doctors. They know what they are doing and your wife will have the best treatment the NHS can provide.
Have faith and be there to support her. Virtual hugs to you both.

Thanks Classic.
No idea about the spine.....they were going to explore that at Walton. We will have to wait for that.

So sorry to hear this... but... trying to be positive... at least you now have a diagnosis... for what it is worth, Mrs @BoldonLad had breast cancer, diagnosed when she was 59. Treated and, still peddling at 74. Again, very best wishes.

Re the Long Covid prog on tv tonight. They reckon there are at least 500,000 sufferers in the uk alone. Very scary.

I have this on record. I read recently it's 1,000,000.

Oh shoot. Dave so sorry to read this. Very best wishes to you both and especially Mrs D. Say hello from Chorley Paul!

You know this already. The NHS are astonishing, they truly know how to care for us and act so quickly when needed. Listen to the doctors and don't be afraid to ask questions.

Thanks BL. MrsD had it and a partial removal in her 40s.
TBH she sounds quite positive.....more so than me. Its just been a few sh*t months. Better than lots of people though.

Able to relate to having it before and removed, for it to ret again. It's possibly why she's able to sound positive about the situation.

Sorry to hear your news @Dave7
Thinking of you and MrsD.
