    Ahhh that would explain the bleeding then, thins the blood so it stops it clotting. Hope she is ok.

    Been to get my haircut, think I just lost half a stone in weight with the amount I had cut off.

    Having a roast chicken dinner tonight, going to be a late one though as I had a major headache when I got in so laid down to get rid of it, then woke feeling rubbish, had my hair cut, still felt rubbish but think I am dehydrated so working my way through some bottles of water. Happily go to bed though and stay there.

    That's rubbish Sarah.... 9 hrs is nothing!! It's really unfair

    It's been a hard slog for us to be honest.... She's tried to pull every card in the book: refused mediation, only turned up to court as her funding came through that morning, told lies that LO is frightened of him, used the excuse that Derby is too many buses away for her to take LO on (he's 3,he'd love the adventure), rearranged the CAFCASS call 3 times, not yet attended the parenting group that court ordered her to go on. It's really not looking good for her but what she doesn't realise is that all of this uncooperative behaviour and game playing is going against her. To the point that the magistrate told her solicitor that THEY rearrange contact appointments, not her and that her client (OHs ex) WILL attend Derby contact centre on the day THEY arranged!!

    It's made me I'll fence I'd not been on for a while but finally OH saw his LO for the first time in 8 months last Saturday and he is there again this weekend!! RESULT!! Got to go back on 1st December hopefully to get the contact order!!

    The system is all wrong Emma! H2b had seen his son once for 3 hours in 9 months but she's also doing lots of things that are going against her too! It's a joke they continue to get away with this behaviour! Glad your oh has now seen his son and is seeing him again at the weekend! But I can imagine how it's making you ill I can totally relate, We're back to court end of October again hopefully there will be more of a solid contact order then for us xx

    If she continues to break the order she could be punished for it..... It's crazy!! I'd love for LOs dad to want him more but I always seem to be the one saying would you mind having him or do you want him..... He never offers to have him for a full weekend or volunteer to take him away for the week. I have to push!! I love the break and when I see men fighting to see their kids, spending thousands of pounds because of selfish mothers. Don't get me wrong, in some cases (where social services/police need to be involved) I understand the need to be cautious but on genuine cases, it sucks..... I really hope you get the order you want xx

    Just watched the program on body donors .. Very sad! Makes you think .. Not sure I would want my relatives to go through with body donoring .. The thought of them not being finally laid to rest and messed with would make it harder for me to come to terms with but I guess it's that attitude that stifles research ... They're such brave people!

    Wished I'd known that was on, I love shows about things like that, I find them so interesting. I'm on the donor list. I've said they can use anything for whatever they need, science or organ donation, as long as they leave my eyes alone. I know it's daft but the thought of anyone messing with my eyes makes me feel ill. I can't even wear contacts because I can stand putting them in. OH has had very strict instructions for should anything happen to me. He's not a fan of me registering for organ donation, and the thought of medical science messing about with bits of me makes him go grey. He's a bit squeamish about things like that bless him.

    Good morning all,

    I slept terrible last night and really didn't want to get up this morning. It's so cold and dark in a morning, it makes it so hard

    It's Wednesday already which is a bonus and I've got my friend coming over tonight for a cuppa.....I've not seen her since she went on maternity leave in December so we have lots of catching up to do

    Morning all.

    I am also on the donor list, years and years ago when my bigger two were little a friend was talking saying how she would never allow her child to be a donor if anything happened to her, so I asked her if she would be prepared to take something from another child if her child needed it. She changed her mind after that and said she had not thought of it that way as she would expect to have it, but not willing to give. Suppose it is the same with adults. Everyone knows that they can have anything from me. Not like I am going to need it and would rather someone else profited from it in their life.

    Another extremely broken night's sleep. Had enough of them now. It takes it out of you so much after a while.

    I'm not a donor but I would be if I knew I could..... I know I can't donate blood cos I had a transfusion about 17 years ago and so I don't know about donating body parts.... I may look into it.

    I can't donate either as when my sister and I were born we had a blood transfusion too. Never thought about being a donor to be honest.

    Ahhh I never realised that, I thought if it was after a certain time you could donate blood. You learn something new every day. I keep meaning to go and donate blood, just that the place near me that does it, I always seem to miss.

    I don't donate blood very often because I have quite a few tattoos and every time you have one you can't donate for a year. I've been on the bone marrow donors list for years but never been called (I'm quite grateful for that). Same as you GF I thought if you had a transfusion you just had to wait a set amount of time.
    Right, I have the morning off so I'm going for the run I've been saying I'd have for the last five days. I'm finally all out of excuses. Have a good day ladies.

    Sarah, she's good thanks, it's not got any worse and less red today so looks like the antibs have kicked in already. She did manage to get two of the three doses in yesterday, think he done good by choosing the hefty adult dose for her instead of the kids dose,

    Off to the GP with her today to see what he suggests,

    It was in channel 5 I think Julie so you might be able to find it on catch up. It's a little more drastic than organ donation... The universities that are signed up (there's 17 in total) basically sign an agreement with you before death to say you agree that they will make all arrangements after death to collect your body and then take you to the university mortuary for training doctors and things.

    Then they shave the whole body and then make a 'small' (it didn't look particularly small to me I had to look away as it was rather graphic showing them trying to get large metal canulars through the vein) incision in the groin area to pump in embalming fluid to preserve the body for up to three years and sometime within them three years their body will be used by students to learn about the anatomy or to practice performing minor / major surgery on a body without it having consequences. It means that the family don't have a body to bury for up to three years.

    I admire the people that are able to do it and whose families have the strength to go through with the body donation but it freaked me out a bit ... The next part is on next week at 9o clock showing what the students do with the man who died this show and was embalmed and I think the other lady dies in the next one. I don't think I'll be watching it again: I thought it would be an insight and might make me more open to that idea but it was just very very strange!
