Hi Ladies

I haven't been on for a while as i've had probably the worst few weeks of my life. My OH's best friend was declining in illness recently (he has leukemia) so we have been concentrating on him. Last Friday (29th) was my birthday and sadly our friend passed away at 5.15pm that day. i see it as a blessing that it was my birthday as now every year he will be part of my day.

i have crohns disease which is a bowel disorder and over the past few weeks i have been feeling rough with it (no doubt caused by stress!) and last sunday was taken into hospital for a few days. Needless to say ttc has been the last thing on my mind.

starting to feel a bit better now so thought i would check in on everyone!

as a result of my illness i am on 14 tablets per day, 8 of which are steriods so i think ttc is on hold for another month or so for me - which is good as me and OH need some time to relax and get over this horrendous time. I'm still giong to come on here and catch up with you lovely ladies though xxxx
 
Sorry things have been tough for you recently. I was actually just thinking about you this morning and wondering if you'd been on recently because I saw a comment from you in an older thread and realised I hadn't seen you around.

Sorry for your loss, but like you said, it'll be nice to share something with him on your birthday now. A very good teacher of mine passed away several years ago and we're heading into that time now, always makes me feel a little bit grateful that I got to know him when I did.

Hope you continue to feel better. :hugs:
 
I'm sorry about your friend passing, i'm sure he's in a better place and it's nice that you can remember him on your birthday :)

I hope your OH is finding some way to deal with his grief.

Sorry about your Crohns disease, can't be pleasant :(

I've been having a pretty shitty time of it too recently - it can only get better i suppose :) I hope it's not on off those gets worse before it gets better situations for me anyway :shock:

Chin up, you'll be back to norm before you know it :hug:
 
aww am sorry to hear that :hug: to you and ur partner
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
 
Ahh hun I was afraid your absence from here was due to your friend, I am very sorry to hear he passed away hope you and your OH are doing ok.

Sorry to here you have been poorly as you said it was probably due to the stress of everything.

Hope you feel better soon and stay positive good things will come your way x x x x x x x x x x x
 
Take care my lovely...lots of snuggles for you and OH required I reckon

xx
 
Sorry for the loss of your friend, it must be very hard to deal with and to watch someone suffer when you know there isn't going to be a happy ending. Big hugs xx
 
So sorry to hear you've been having a tough time - it can't be easy at the mo for you or OH; hope you are finding strength from each other.
