Love and hugs back to you. It’s raining and humid here so not too pleasant.

I didn’t go to work after seeing pdoc this morning as I just couldn’t face seeing more people.

💜💕🤗💕💜

Humid isn't nice, we have similar here. 

I hear you about the people arghhh @Eve7 

I have just learned that we are all expectated to return to the office from 6 December 😔 

We can negotiate some work from home days (potentially two) 

I sooooo don't want to go back even for three. Same reason people, toxic lady and it means son here alone for those days, they are just what ce to mind quickly. I knew it would happen but I'm so not prepared. Hmmmmm what to do? 

Cuppa perhaps?

@Eve7 @NatureLover @Emelia8 ?

[Emelia8]

Oh yes please @Anastasia ... a cuppa would be great. Hoping @Eve7 can join us too?  I expect @NatureLover may still be at work, but might need a cuppa too once she gets home.

Its going to be a big change for you from 6th Dec @Anastasia .  Have you commenced negotiating to work from home for at least two days yet?  I think your boy was coming home from hospital the week prior to that, so hopefully you will have had a chance to see how stable he is on the new medications he's on.  He may be much improved and you could be concerning yourself for no reason?  Still I know it will be a constant worry for you when you are not there to keep an eye on him to ensure his safety.  So awfully sorry too that your Dad needs to recommence the chemo for another 12 weeks.  Its going to be a hard road for all of you.  And your dad is going into it this time from a more vulnerable place than he was last time - more frail, more weak and in a lower less positive mood.  Will your Mum be taking him to the chemo sessions?  I always took my husband in for his cancer immunotherapy infusions, and stayed with him.  It typically takes half a day, is hard work and emotionally and physically exhausting for both patient and carer.  I hope he feels well enough to catch up for family get-togethers over the coming weeks and months.  Family time is very important for all of you.
