    I really hope you see the "tipping-point" soon where it is obvious to you and the doctors/nurses that she no longer needs ICU.

    Shane: I've seen ICU and it freaked me out (uncle) it if was my partner I don't know how I would have coped!

    You are the bravest person I know!

    cool enough shane, good to hear the good news. I'll take the money I would have spent on flowers and give it to a cancer charity, at least I'll feel like I'm doing something worthwhile :) Tell her to take it easy!

    tbh.

    Just found the thread from one of the banners.

    Shane and Aoife you've both been in my prayers since before the op and will continue to be every day. We're all rooting for you.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 334 ✭✭zeusnero


    My 1st post on this thread, but have been wishing Aoife well for a long time - really stomach wrenching to read so I can't imagine how tough it is on you Shane. Really hoping everything goes well and Aoife improves rapidly over the next few weeks.

    Best wishes!

    Yeah same here... Hope it all turns out well for you.. reading about your story sounds very familiar.. My 16 y/o cousin took very sick with Cystic Fibrosis (long term sufferer) 2 days before Xmas this year and she was up and down for a week before being put on a ventilator.. Unfortunately we lost her on New Yrs Eve..

    I know how nerve racking it is watching someone rally and then go down and then get a bit better, and then down etc... I will say a prayer for Aoife that your story will have a happy ending :)

    I can only echo everyone elses sentiments, Shane.

    Please pass on my best wishes to Aoife. I'm not a religious person by any means, but I have lit a candle for her. We're all willing her on here in this little corner of cyberspace. Just because its an internet forum, it doesn't for a second mean that we aren't concerned for her and wish her the very best :) (but thats obvious from the amount of replies to this thread!)

    The care staff in the hospital sound absolutely fantastic btw - she is in the best possible place :)

    Plenty of TLC when she gets home!

    -Sorcha

    Hiya Shane,
    Only came across this thread today and want to wish both you and Aoife all the very best. It's clear from reading her own thread that she is a fighter and will not let this get the better of her.

    Both Aoife and you are in my thoughts and prayers. I cannot even begin to imagine what you are going through but you have the complete support and good energy from the boards community behind you.

  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 5,945 ✭✭✭BEAT


    Well I havnt been much of a reader on boards for quite awhile now with all thats going on in life so I had no idea this was going on and I lost contact with shane a few months back when things got hectic on my side of the pond so reading this was a shock to say the least.
    I probably know shane and aoife best having lived with them a few years back, and knowing Aoife the way I do I know she will pull through this a winner. She is indeed a fighter and too strong willed to let it take her down.
    We will be hearing good news soon I am very sure.
    I will be in contact with you soon Shane, keep us updated and stay positive you and I know she will be home soon and you will be nursing her back to health in no time at all, stay strong ;)

    CathyMoran has helped me alot, unknown to herself with many PI threads i have posted as i'm sure alot of others can say here too. She is a trooper.

    Send on my best wishes to Aoife, and dont forget to care of yourself too Shane, she needs you to be strong and positive at this time, so make sure you mind youself.

    Best of Luck.

    I've just seen this now, and I'd like to add a message of support for you both.

    Reading this whole thread was hard with the ups and downs, I can only imagine what the family is going through.

    Thoughts and hugs and love your way.

    I second all of that, nice post seansouth. Thoughts are with you during this time

    Just came across this today.
    A real inspiration. Keep driving forward!

  • Moderators, Regional Midwest Moderators Posts: 11,183 Mod ✭✭✭✭MarkR


    Came across Cathy's story before, admired her courage. Best wishes and I hope the recovery continues as well as we all hope.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,235 ✭✭✭lucernarian


    Neither myself or my loved ones have been affected by cancer so far so I can't imagine what yous are going through but for what it's worth, I wish you a speedy recovery and for the operation to go problem-free. Best of luck to you both.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,040 ✭✭✭threebeards


    I only came across this thread yesterday. While I was aware of Aoife's illness, I wasn't aware that there was an operation due to happen. Being someone that has had to deal with a similar illness in my family, while I won't say I know what you're both going through, I probably have a slight idea. All I'll say is, family & friends are great at a time like this (as is more than evident by the good wishes in this thread). My best wishes and prayers go out to you both as well as your family and friends who I have no doubt will be suffering in silence also.

    All the best,

    Richie.

    Well, its Thursday- surgery was 2 weeks ago tomorrow.
    The surgical registrar has said Aoife will be at least another week in Intensive Care, before being released to the Liver High Dependency Unit (she doesn't have any liver problems, its just that most of the patients with high dependency there do). Tonight the dialysis machine is turned off for the first time, hopefully she sleeps a little. They hope to cut dialysis back to 3 days a week, and have started a new antibiotic to try to fight the pneumonia problem. Aoife is awake and alert and fully conscious of everything that is happening around her. She is half watching the tv, but does not have the concentration to read yet. She is definitively improved- its a long road, but she is making good headway.

    Shane

    Just read the thread now, followed in from the advert banner. I hope everything goes okay for ye, Read about the situation before and I wish ye the very best for the future. Cancer has touched my family on four different occasions in the last 10yrs and it a terrible experience. My thoughts and prayers are with ye on this.

    I've been following Aoife's post's for a few month's now and I have to say she has incredible strength and attitude towards this and I wish her nothing but great thing's for the future and even more strength to deal with anything else that might come her way.

    My family has been affected with cancer in a bad way my mam's family has the breast cancer gene and 4 of my great aunties dies and my dad's family my grandfather died from it and my uncle dies from a rare form at 26.
    I hope if ever I have to face it again in my life I have even half the strength that you've shown towards it!

    Congrat's also btw! Ya's Newlywed's


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,564 ✭✭✭Naikon


    I wish you both the best of luck and that everything goes according to plan.
    Cancer is Horrible, as it has affected some of my relatives, but with strong support and Decent care it can be beaten.
    Best wishes:)

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,357 ✭✭✭secret_squirrel

    Shane man,I was totally unaware untill now that all this is going on.
    It's a long long trek and I can emphatise with you.
    Keep your strength up as un beknownst to you,you yourself could run down during this very quickly.

    Tell Aoife I was asking for her-she's in good hands.

    I'm normally a lurker, not a poster and only came across this from the banner, and don't know either of you, but from the posts you have affected a lot of people here in cyberspace and that points to you both being decent skins.

    Best of wishes on behalf of all the lurkers!!
