Huge ordeal for both of you!

I saw the most gorgeous floofball at the park the other day - he was a Samoyed and Golden Retriever cross. Light golden colour. I called him Mr Floof. A Border Collie or Whippet puppy tried to play with him a few times, but Mr Floof just wanted to lie down. I didn't get a picture, but was...

Holy cheeseballs. :eek:

If you like crime, her books are excellent. I haven’t listened to any of the audio books so can’t comment on how they sound. I am a bit of a raving fan of Candice, though! 😂

Finally finished Henning Beck's Scatterbrain last week, and am now onto something lighter -Candice Fox's Fire With Fire.

Good to see you, too! Yes, I’m mostly hoping for help from the ACAT assessment for when MIL needs some respite/supervision for FIL so she can grocery shop and go to the gym with all the ladies 20yrs younger than her. I can also send Mr Katie over, as they have internet at home, but he may...

Thank you @Quickstatus and @andye for the geriatric specialist explanations.

FIL is 84; 85 later this year. MIL is 81 for whatever that might be worth.

Moving some discussion of FIL's medical matters here rather than the Member Chit Chat. FIL was let out of hospital on Thursday. Went to visit, along with both SILs on Saturday. MIL tells me she'd spoken to the cardiologist with my AFF suggestions (geriatrician, ACAT, etc). Cardiologist said...

Just when I thought it was extreme having 4 trips to the US this year. Guess I'll wait for phase 2.

A TA who helps you reduce your flight costs by half and only adding one day to the itinerary!

Hmm, colour me and Mr Katie interested.

Or was inspired by one of the songs from Matilda? The musical version, that is. ;)

I remember when I was taking iron supplements and my GP told me to avoid taking the tablets with tea or red wine. I was so confused - why on earth would I be chasing down an iron tablet with wine at breakfast time?? :P Noted about taking the supplement after food, though I much prefer the...

WCMO Being in an outback motel room and being woken by the sound of the person in the neighbouring room talking on the phone at 5:50am.

She has menorrhagia and we try to keep up the dietary iron, she was on iron tablets until last year's infusion. Luckily she likes broccoli, and we probably have red meat at least 2-4 times/week, with some lunches included in that count.

Thanks, but no need to apologise!!

Have some similar, but not identical issues. Teen had her first iron infusion in Nov/Dec and now looking at some other things, but not intending to poke around much even though I asked about checking for endo. I frequently have to pick up the Teen from school in the first days of her period...

No. I checked for points fares, not available. Peeved at the non-flying family members who think points can be used anytime, even T-4 days before on a Dash 8 route with what 70? 80? seats available.

When my mother (apparently) is told that a funeral will be in Roma, Qld, and she trusts that because the person telling her is the adult child of the recently deceased woman. Despite this woman's husband being buried in Winton. And all of her children know fury would rain (reign?) upon them if...
