    A Safe Place for those of us still drinking to post.

    I was always a 13% girl too. Yes there are more units in that. When I started to try and sort myself I went to 12.5% wines ) I think I worked out that I was drinking roughly 80 - 90 units a week based on at least one bottle a day and more on weekends and when I felt like shite )
    I think it depends where the blood is coming from, stomach or lungs....if you were just coughing after throwing up or something you may just have ruptured a blood vessel. I am not sure how to tell where it is coming from.

    I wish you all the luck in the world for the dentist, they are not good peeps are they???? )

      Im just hoping that maybe once my sore gums settle down and my partner, son and me stop passing this flu bug back and forth to each other that I can feel a little happier.

      On the plus side of my life at the mo, I DO have a sparkling clean kitchen, cos I spent all yesterday doing it

        Actually, my dentist is kinda cute LOL. Young Irish guy, and really sweet with me since Im such a nervous patient.
        Had SO many bad experiences with dentists over the years, its nice to be able to find one who understands my phobia.
        If he wasnt so cute I probably wouldnt have gone through with the op last week.. heehee.

                My hub did that once when he was having his wisdoms out. He kept touching up the nurses which is VERY unlike him. They had to get me to get him out of there and take him home. He was mortified when I told him )

                    F***ity F***.
                    Came back from dentist (all is well) to a phone call from my mum that my uncle has been rushed back to hospital. He's not well enough for an op, and its a case now of hours rather than days or weeks... he has cancer, in various places... and had to have his bladder removed and now has something beginning with a "D"... divurticulitis?that my grandad died of. My aunt is inconsolable.. my parents are rushing over to hospital tonight. I dont get along with my sister (and she dotes on him) so i cant even go to the hospital to pay last respects... cos She'll be there.

                    Onto my fourth glass of wine and the bottle is empty and have no money to get more.
                    plenty of fags though.

                      Oh Chelle I am truely sorry.
                      Can't you/your sis make an exception given the circumstances?
                      Don't know what else to say except to send loads of hugs

                        Oh Chelle, I am SO very sorry to hear that.
                        Is there anyway you can just go and say goodbye to your uncle regardless of your sisters feelings? Just seems so sad if you cant.
                        Thoughts are very much with you right now

                          Thanks guys... your hugs and thoughts are very much appreciated.

                          No, I wont be going to the hospital.
                          Im not very good socially anyway, so dont know if Id be much help to my aunt or my dad (its my dad's brother who is in hospital).
                          I never know what to say to people who are going through grief or anything like that... which is surprising, considering the shit Ive been through myself.

                          The night before last night, I heard that he was feeling a lot better and was enjoying a whiskey and his pipe... he was gonna give up smoking, but once he found out he had a "time limit", he decided to just enjoy his vices and the time he had left.
                          Even his nurse agreed with him.

                          Chemo has left him really weak, but he's still hanging on.

                            Thoughts and prayers are with all of you chelle. Totally understand about not knowing what to say too. My mum has had a number of cancers recently and I really struggle to know what to say. I do almost anything to avoid talking really, clean, walk the dog anything.

                              Got my mobile charged (landline is on the blink) and will be waiting for any news.
                              From what I heard, it sounds like he'll either go through with an emergency operation tonight, or tomorow morning.. but either way, it aint looking good.

                              My debit card is actually well named now, because it IS in debit... due to me visiting one of the off-licences that my house is "sandwiched" between.

                                Chelle, he probably has a phone. Maybe it wouldn't hurt to call him, and tell him what you feel for him.
