    An old friend committed suicide yesterday. So bizarre, the night before they were casually commenting on my FB status, now they're no more. Quite shocked. No idea why I'm here, but it's easy to fall back into routine when you don't know what else to do.

    Poor Few :( Makes my problems seem banal in comparison! :o

    Speaking of which, I think I'm losing the battle :( Out of all the different types of tablets I had to take just now only the Solpadeine capsules scored a try; the rest are all lodged in the ruins of my throat :( Unless its second time lucky at the doctors I'll have to roll the dice and see if the hospital can fix me with intravenous drugs and nourishment before I catch complimentary MRSA, which in my current state will most likely kill me. Needless to say, I am now fairly ****ting myself :eek:

    Funny how we all take the ability to ingest for granted. I never will again. Not after this.

    I need a rant...

    I don't know if I posted in here about a very close family friend who was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer about 3 months ago.... Anyway, she's been undergoing chemo for the last while, and it seemed to be going well (well, as well as going through chemo can go) and we were kinda getting our hopes up that maybe the miracle she so deserved was gonna happen and she'd pull through....

    I just got home from college there and my mam tells me that she's been moved from the hospital to the hospice as her kidneys are failing and she's basically living on borrowed time.

    Im devastated. This woman is like a second mother to me, you'd you'd never, ever meet a nicer, more genuine person than her. The fact that she's going to lose her life to such a nasty, vicious disease makes me so angry. Bad things shouldn't happen to good people.

    That's understandable. *more hugs* Feel free to PM at any stage if you do want to talk. (I've been there on the losing family members front.)

    Doesn't matter if you're not blood related. There's more to family than that. It's still tough to lose someone you love.

    Very much so. I was trying really hard not to get my hopes up about her making a full recovery, but I just didn't want to think of the alternative. It's proving very difficult to wrap my head around, even though in the back of my mind I knew it was coming

    It's understandable that you wouldn't want to think of an alternative to her getting better. It must be so tough to come to terms with.

    It is. I'm supposed to be going to see her in the next few days but im in 2 minds about whether to go. Part of me really wants to go because..well, there wont be too many more opportunities, but another part is terrified that when i see her ill get very upset. The last thing she needs to be doing is comforting me right now! (Although that's exactly what she'll do!)

    I remember you mentioned her before CC, sorry to hear the news is not going to turn out good :(

    I'd advise you to definitely go see her while you still have the chance. It may make you upset but I'm sure she would love to see you. She needs to be surrounded by people who love her, you can help with that :) x

    You need to go CC. I didn't visit my grandmother enough when she was in hospital and she's gone now. I'll never stop regretting that.

    God, I know, I'd never forgive myself if I didn't go and something happened before I plucked up the courage again. You see, she's the kind of person who could get hit by a bus and make sure YOU'RE ok, seeing me upset might upset her more!

    Yes, go see her and bring your joy along. If you can make her smile once it'll be worth it. Even if you're in tears, she'll still know her lil cupcake cares deeply for her.

    That bit nearly made me cry for some reason :o

    Im going to go see her this evening with my mam. She said I didn't have to go if I didn't want to but I don't want her going on her own!
