termietermite
« on: August 29, 2012, 11:31:22 am »
Hi, guys and gals. When I post under this heading you may guess what comes next. Deb had been in the UK for three weeks, had been in great company with a number of you here and there, had had a really good hol - but about 10 days ago her appetite vanished, and there was general and increasing discomfort down below due to massive bloating. She soldiered on, enjoying Silverstone WEC with Wishy and Brad - maybe others? - but was quickly running out of energy. Tuesday she managed to drive to Calais, where I met her, having gone by train, and I drove her home. We saw our GP, who referred her to A&E in Le Mans. She spent the night there on oxygen, with a drip (not me!) and has had an ECG and a scan, and now also has a tube down her throat. She has recently told me she is being referred to Oncology, and I expect to vist her there this afternoon.

Not good news, but there we are - it may get better, and as ever, I'll try to keep you posted. You all mean a great deal to Deb, and your support for us both over the last four years has certainly helped me.

I spent a couple of hours with Deb at Silverstone and although she appeared to be in quite a bit of discomfort she was her usual chatty, friendly self. Please pass on my best regards and tell we are all thinking of her.

I bumped in to Deb at the rear of Club corner on Sunday.

She said that all was not well, but thought she was referring to her missing car keys.

Please pass on my best wishes,

Sorry to hear this Ian.

Thoughts and prayers (not necessarily the "official" sort) are with you both just now.

It was lovely to see Deb on her recent visit oop north, though she mentioned even then that she wasnt eating well.
