I've been a bit 'off the radar' for a couple of weeks (been to Bonneville for Speed Week).
Hope Deb is receiving all the care and attention she deserves and is feeling more comfortable now.

Take a deep breath chaps - Deb's cancer is back, but now on her liver. More than that I don't know at present, but, as ever, I'll try to keep you informed.

I'm composed now, so I'm going to do my best to write this before I lose it again.
As some of you know, on Sunday, I had to leave Silverstone in a hurry, owing to a major bereavement in my family. I did so, with Debs keys in my pocket. Debs was (as is in her very nature) incredible about it. Not only did she wait patiently for me for about 45 minutes after my ETA whilst I battled my way through a major accident on the M40 to get them back to her - when I arrived, she greeted me with a warm smile - noticing my distress she gave me a massive hug, before telling me to keep my chin up and sending me back to my wife and child to cope with their distress. I knew she was ill. I told her to get her arse to the doctor.
Debs, without your kindness and generosity on Sunday, one of the worst days of my life so far, would have been even worse. My thoughts, prayers and hopes are with both Debs, and you, Ian.

Brad - Deb was very eloquent about the effort you had put in to return her keys, in the face of enormous pain at home. She had told me the whole detailed story on the way back from Calais, and had clearly been mortified (sorry!) by your evident distress.
She thinks you are a hell of a fella!
Just had a txt to say she's been seen by a psychologist, a masseuse, and a doctor. The old lady, probably gaga, with whom she's been sharing since Weds p.m., is being moved out. I visit this afternoon, natch, and we may try to get Deb online.
It goes without saying that CA warmth goes a long way with us, TVM to all.

Oh Blimey Ian!
Please send Debs our best (that's Lois and me), the two of you have certainly been through it since the accident. Please you also look after yourself. Hopefully in the next day or so we can communicate directly with Debs through the medium of the interweb, but in the meantime, our thoughts and prayers are with both of you. And so many thanks for the updates.
Gary

While I would love to tell you that Deb is feeling better, I can't. She is still dreadfully short of breath - despite the oxygen supply bieng increased earlier today - to the point of being unable to plug the lead into her netbook. She spends a lot of time rinsing her mouth out - with Coke! This is provided for her, as is a bowl to expectorate afterwards. No doubt a tiny % goes down her throat. She is also using one of those water atomiser sprays. I cannot claim that the hospital aren't caring. After all, it's the weekend, when we know from experience not much happens, and since attempts to drain her abdomen have failed up to now, we had little hope for today. But they did their best, sending her for an ultra-sound scan, to look for the best place to make an incision. Sadly even this didn't work, so she still looks very pregnant. She is now on morphine, and some sort of drug to stop her worrying - thanks, psychologist!
I'm sure they will solve the bloating problem - it took a few days last year, and that was in a surgical ward - but it can't happen soon enough for me, or the patient. She will have a knockout drop tonight, so should sleep a bit more. Her new room-mate, a lady of 54, is obviously well-known to the staff, and we wonder if she has a brain tumour, as she really is out of it, sleeps a lot, clearly not at all affected by these Anglais jabbering away in the next bed! You can always find someone worse off than you.
I visit tomorrow, but unless there is some turnaround will not bore you with all the same dreary stuff. Hopefully Monday more resources will be brought to bear!
