I get what your saying. I am 70 and suffer from cronic

Chronic Hemicrania continua. I always refer ro a Prime Minister "life wasn't meant to be easy" so I put on What a wonderful world - Louis Armstrong and it brings me back to reality.
Be safe and care for yourself.

Damn I thought this post was gunna be the lead up to a good joke, sat perfectly at the end of a page to help build the anticip...

But it actually was just that you've got a chronic pain condition, which sucks.
Hope you continue to find good ways to manage it and get through it.

I am sure you already have it in the calendar but just a reminder that Sunday 19th November is International Men's Day .

You probably won't see it mentioned it the media as it is not about a boozy long lunch event with celebrities speeches .

The theme is “Healthy Men, Healthy World”.

The IMD 2023 theme – Healthy Men, Healthy World – will help shine a spotlight on the issue of men and boys’ health with the help of four sub-themes:

• Take action, stay healthy!
• Check in on a mate!
• Improving male health together!
• Healthy male role models!

Unfortunately we won't see any great government funded media campaign .

Maybe at least " Check in on a mate " on the 19th .

Today -

Sunday 19th November is International Men's Day

Check in on a mate on the 19th

Hey pals,

Had a rough few weeks.

My mum passed away from cancer the other week and it's just devastated our unit.

I consider myself a tough bloke, but it breaks you when you have to discuss these sort of things with your kids.

We're only a small family, and we promised mum neither of us would leave her side, which meant my dad, my brother and myself were by her side 24/7.

It was so hard, because it meant we were doing shifts and we couldn't all be there at the same time. It was downright frightening being there at 3am and afraid to take a piss in case something happened.

I now support assisted dying, in her final days she just wanted to go, couldn't talk, eat, drink or even get comfortable.

I wasn't in the room when she passed, it was her sisters birthday, and they were having cake outside her room, my brother was there. I was resting up for my shift, same with my dad. I got the call and was there within 5 minutes, she was still warm.

In saying that, I was so happy it happened when it did because alot of family were nearby, and it would have killed me if it happened in the middle of the night when I was all alone.

Call or text your parents and tell them you love them.

This didn't come as a surprise, she was in remission and it came back on Xmas eve 2021, and they have her 2 years.

We farewelled her on Monday and I was shocked and humbled by the people giving us support.

If anyone is going through something similar, you 100% have my support and sympathy.

Cancer is absolute **** of a disease. **** cancer

One of my mates is currently going through the same with his Dad. He's full time caring for him at home as the circumstances lined up, but it's been months now with multiple goodbyes just to keep hanging on.

Can't imagine the pain of doing that with a parent. I hope having the family around at the time brought you comfort, and you can remember the good times rather than the end. Thanks for sharing Addy, thinking of you and the family.

My sincerest condolences to you and your family Addy. Thank you for sharing your story, even when its the freshest, it helps other know they're not alone.

 

[Western Sharkie]

sincerest condolences to you and all the family.
Went through similar times a few years back and what got us through was having family around.
so stick together and it will help you all through this.

Never forget but it does get easier over time.
