Sue, I send you love and strength at this time. I know how hard it is to watch someone you love suffer through illness. Make sure you get help for yourself. You dont have to cope alone. Big hugs and licks from Tilly and Gracie. xx

Oh Sue, what a horrible situation to be in - both for your sister and for you.

Please try and take a little time for yourself, and endeavour not to stress too much.......

I sincerely hope your sister is feeling a little more comfortable soon.

Trying to pull myself together today and not to get too anxious but very difficult when you see someone you love looking so thin (she is 5.5 stone) and very very pale and has the most horrendous cough. On the exterior I appear very calm as she has enough to contend with at the moment - all my anxiety is behind closed doors It obviously brings back memories of when I looked after my husband who died 4.5 years ago. Dogsey vibes would be much appreciated for my sister to get at least a little better as she will never fully recover
Sue I am not surprised you are anxious, forget about 'pulling yourself together' you are allowed to be upset...hugs xx

Thinking of you both ....

I'm sending everything I've got, all fingers and paws crossed here for your dear sister, and also for YOU, because we don't want to hear you being ill with worry like this. I hope they can help her out, I hope she gets much better with some rest and being with somebody she loves so much will help her enormously. All the best Sue, I was wondering where you'd got to. You need some of Sally's magic bottle tonight methinks, that'll cheer you up.xxxxxxx
Thanks Helena. What is Sally's magic bottle? I don't drink which is probably a good thing as I am sure I would be an alchi by now

Thanks Vicki. If she could put on some weight I am sure that would help so that is my first objective. xx

Thanks very much. She needs to get rid of a chest infection first and she is taking loads of antibiotics. I will look up this support group. Most grateful. xx
