I do like the way Effie has

I do like the way Effie has become a 'person' with moods, likes dislikes and preferences.Much like her 'mum' I imagine.

Keep smiling and making us smile Jean

Hi Jean

Thanks for keeping us in the loop.

Mouth ulcers are awful I remember as a child having them frequently. That stuff you can buy from the chemist is not nice but does work. Although my dentist is very nice I do put off going...

Hi Jean

I love the way your writing is 'warts and all'! You write things as they are, both good and bad. But you always end on a positive note.

Hi Jean

What an upleasant experience for you (and Effie). A well written, amusing and informative piece, as usual. You do seem to overcome the trials and tribulations of your condition with great equanimity.

RESPECT!

Hi Angus

A wonderful description of these lovely, intelligent creatures. You can almost undestand why ancient people feared them. I think that they are such great birds.

Hi Jean

Another lovely 'little epistle'. Effie does sound like a troublesome little child at times. Glad you managed to settle her down allowing you both much needed sleep.

You are still sounding very up beat, well done!

Hi Jean

Thanks for the update.

Glad you managed to sort out your worries re the stoma nurse. It seems much of the NHS seems to be farmed out to private companies. My neighbour had a cataract op on the NHS at a private hospital. She...

Hi Jean

Still keeping me smiling, in spite of. Loved your description of Effie's singing. My writing class teacher has a stoma as a result of a ruptured bowel a couple of years ago. Very nasty at the time but now she is fine and is coping...
