How Was Your Day?

[Mee]

Its really hard to know when to tell them.At the moment he looks ok and acts as normal,but due to it being in the spine he is unable to walk but sits fine,ive told them he has a bad back and he might have to stay in his chair or out in a wheelchair,i suppose when he starts deteriorating i should tell them,but they have the kids from school twice a week,which he loves,so i wouldnt want them acting differently around my dad if they knew he was so poorly.seeing them muck about and acting the fools is probably one of the things he looks forward to each week.

I lost my grandad a year ago (Was 14 at the time, not sure how old your kids are), and my mum just told me. Once it's out there and not in hiding, i found that it helped so much. My grandad had cancer which spread, but he was given 2 months and was determined to make christmas (doctors said he wouldn't make october) and he made it until January. Just because they put a 'time limit' (sorry, that sounds so blunt) does not mean a lot.

Hope your ok though man, and your family.

[Jackirius]

Really sorry to hear that, hope you're ok Wish you and your family all the best.

Ta,it is a dilemma,but you are right,i think the lower time frame is to cover the hospitals arses as some might say, you said 12 months and he only lived 6,so understand why they say it.

It's an awesome film.

You just don't have the mental capacity yet to understand it .

To be fair, I'd probably get it if I wasn't using the computer at the same time. Either that or your statement is true

Yeah it needs full concentration. Miss a few minutes of the film and you miss something important.

Cambridge, really sorry, I lost my Gran in 06, 3 months after I moved back out here, and I hadn't settled, so I had to fly back and see all my family just after leaving, it's hard.

[Haydos]

Hospital said they wont bother giving dad chemo

Sorry to hear about this dude. Jeez I thought I was having a bad day today, seems completely ridiculous when I read things like this.

Must be awful, I think I'd literally go into self-destruct mode if I received this news about my ma. I almost fell apart when I lost both my grandmas in quick succession not long back. Horrible.

[ScouseFox]

We've got a guy round to tile our bathroom after it flooded over Christmas, and he's been here two days, and it's flooding again. Not fun.

[The Doctor]

sorted a new freeview box, started making benzocaine.

Playing football earlier, opposition striker's a bit of a ****, needless to say i took him out on the first 50-50 ball.

Hospital said they wont bother giving dad chemo

I'm ever so sorry to hear about that. One of my Uncles was told in January he only had about to live and he's gone past that. He also stopped having chemo in January and has got the disease on part of the liver and stomach. Your Father has my best of wishes.

Couldn't find the mobile thread so I'll ask in here. This question will sound retarded to anyone with even the slightest knowledge of phones, I'm not one of them, hence why i'm asking.

Is it possible to buy a pay as you go phone and whack in the SIM I'm using at the minute from the phone I got with my contract and have it work?

[ScouseFox]

Not 100% sure, but I think I've got man flu. Haven't left the house and barely eaten anything since Thursday morning, gotta get myself up to referee at half 9 tomorrow. Not gonna be the best officiated game you've ever seen.

[StanSP]

Today has started off in a 'what-the-fuck' kinda way.

Here's why. Don't know if anyone else goes on YouTube now and finds the same thing...but on their main home screen... (NSFW so put it in a spoiler)

And cos I was using tinypic, you need captcha codes to upload. So as I went to upload the above picture, WTF part 2 came up...

[SOCCERROO FOX]

Woke up 7am for a Sunday is ridiculus but then went to the gym for 2 hours and am so sore but Dinner and Movie tonight will be good.

Sometimes they're locked to whatever network they were bought with, but you can yeah.

[Fox1651]

have woke up after a night shift, feeling groggy as always after nights - watching dispicable me, which seems a good & funny film up to now

[FoxyPV]

Found out today that for the first time in 8 years I'm not graded (only allowed to play for the first team) for football through a conversation with someone not affiliated with the senior despite starting (and playing well) in every important match last season. I'm not ****ing happy.

[MikeyT]

Dad still in hospital after finding out he has cancer of the spine,they believe it is a secondary cancer too.consultant thinks its a hard type to treat,fingers crossed though.

He is on a drip due to steriods and needs to be hydrated,anyway they have put him on a normal ward,due to lack of beds and in the night he kept rolling on it and setting the alarm off,the guy opposite who is not very ill had a pop at him today for waking him up.My mum has told me not to go up there tmor,as she knows i will throw that c**t out of the 9th floor!(not her exact words)

Hope your dad's gonna be ok mate. All the best to him.
