Aw Vicky.. I'm so so sorry to hear about your Nan.. Like many people I lost my Nan to cancer in December.. It's still pretty raw for us as we were so very close as a family.. she was awesome, always spoke her mind and loved everyone.. I bet your Nan was the same.. reason I say that is because you speak so beautifully of her - she obviously had a loving family around her who she loved just as much - hold on to the memories you have of her, then they will never leave you .

Thinking of you and your family hun xxxx

Sadly I put off going to see my grandma till it was too late, no one told me how ill she really was, but I can imagine her telling us all to go home, just like your nan did. She knew you loved and cared for her and I'm sure she'll be watcing over you.

It's not easy, but sending many hugs to you. To use a quote I discovered recently : A special life leaves memories and memories live forever xxx

I am relieved that she's gone, but sad. Glad I came back from Nottingham in time to visit on Sunday. One of the last things she said to me was "what are you doing in here, it's so morbid, go home"! Bless her

Thanks guys. 13th of this month was the 2 year anniversary of loosing my other nan to cancer...so April isn't a good month for us. Have come to work today to keep my mind off things, plus we are so busy I didn't want to leave my HN working as only nurse.

Hi Vicky,

I am really sorry to hear what you are going through. I cant offer any advice, Dinky gave good advice there I thought

Thinking of you

Re: I'm worried...

Vicky RVN — Sun, 30 Aug 2009 11:03:32 GMT

She was anaemic before her chemo, she's only just been put on it. It's hard to figure out whats going on when you've only got bits of information! Thanks for the message x

Aw Vicky this must be awful for you but sounds like your sister may be right tho there could be a number of different types of cancer that she is taking the tablet for but leukaemia and lymphoma would be top of my list.She will be anaemic from chemo and will of course affect the bone marrow however they will wait til her haemaglobin gets to a certain level (was 8 for me normal is i think between 12-14) before they transfuse her.She will feel great after it - she'll want to go out dancing lol!

She is doing fantastic for her age and she probably doesnt want to worry for her or the fuss.Why not pop over and tell her how you feel and that you only want to help.The elderly are very different to us young lot and feel they dont want to bother anyone but she must becarrying so much on her shoulders.Big hugs to you and your nan.xx
