Going to be a celebration of the life of the most wonderful person in my world, with an obituary, music and no black clothes allowed. Mum was a person of colour, after all. She wasn't a fan of dreary things. But yeah. It's sad how you cannot even depend on these health specialists. Rest in peace, mum. ❤️ So sorry to hear about that. Our thoughts are with you.

Knight Plug Posted September 21, 2023 Share Posted September 21, 2023 Thanks. I hope my family sees justice. They had no right to stop her treatment. Dialysis is vital for someone with renal failure. And my mum packed her things and left the hospice, to come home. So one day, nurses came one after the other and overdosed her on either fentanyl or tranquillisers. Then by not draining the excess fluid in her body that had been gathering up, this stupid negligence caused her stomach to swell up, and then the bodily toxins would have kicked in. And I'm sure that malpractice would have worsened her abdominal aortic aneurysm. Shagger 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knight Plug Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 My mother's funeral is on Wednesday. After that, I will have to think things through carefully. It's gonna be hard not having my mum around any longer. Shortie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is never easy to lose a loved one and especially someone as close as your mother. Thoughts are with you and your family at this time. I will be catching up on some work today myself and getting things organized for the week ahead. I have a parents evening tomorrow as well as my shopping day so a busy day for me tomorrow.

Knight Plug Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 In the early hours of this morning, which is the day of my mother's funeral, my younger sister started bombarding me with text messages. Really nasty ones. This came about because yesterday, the tosser was supposed to meet me outside a shop, near the parlour. So she agreed to this, so I could buy a Bruce Lee shirt for the coffin. Of course, not being all with it, she forgot to get off the bus to meet me, and became rather aggressive when I rightfully told her off. But I mean, to hell with being treated like that by your own family. She has this condition called FND. Anybody know what that's like, exactly?

According to Google, "Functional neurological disorder (FND) is a medical condition in which there is a problem with the functioning of the nervous system and how the brain and body sends and/or receives signals, rather than a structural disease process such as multiple sclerosis or stroke", but that obviously doesn't clarify what it like for the individual and those close to them what it's like to live with. I know she picked the wrong day to test you, but you're both going through something very difficult, so my advice is try to be patient with her.

Knight Plug Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 My mum was buried after 1 PM yesterday. I took one of the chords as the coffin went in. Was choking up a bit when the limo entered the cemetery. My sister was crying her eyes out. 🥺 At the service in the funeral parlour, the minister said my mother was living in Australia for a few years and her late brother stayed longer to get married, before returning to Scotland too. A few wee jokes too. That made me feel glad. Although he did say my mum didn't particularly enjoy her time in the country. 😅 I arrived first to get a good talk with mum and to say thanks for all the support and great memories. Some of the things we left in the casket were felt animals (a puffin, fox and owl) and Beatles socks, and a tea towel with puffins, and a card featuring the Isle of Arran, as it was her most cherished holiday destination. 😇 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoryAR Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 Hello everyone, we're heading out of town to do some (window) shopping tomorrow mostly in an Asian marketplace. I hope to find some cool stuff with our travels. I usually end up buying something when we go out of town to shop. Knight Plug 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 Today has been a royal bitch. I took my Camaro out to get her licensed. She failed inspection because at some point, some worthless piece of shit decided to steal my catalytic converter. Without it, she can’t pass inspection which means I can’t get the tags legal. The best quote I got on that today, was $400. After paying the fee for some lessons and a couple other things, I can’t affirm $400. I still have some high bills to pay as well. Then to top it off, she wouldn’t start when I tried to leave McDonald’s. The damn terminals on the fucking battery had come loose. I don’t keep a wrench set in my car. So I had to get some help from a guy coming out. Today has been one punch in the face after another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knight Plug Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 For some reason, I have a hunch that social services aren't gonna provide me with any support. I called them a month ago. But it didn't sound like they were exactly jumping at the chance to take me on. They are morons anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 It's been a while since I've been on but I wanted to catch up with everyone. How's everyone been? I've been dealing with the sudden loss of my dog a few weeks back. I still miss her but life goes on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
