Health.

I had a little disturbing news the other day concerning my eldest sisters Husband. My youngest Sister rung me up to inform me that he had prostate cancer and it had spread to his bones and was in Hospital having tests. since then he has been discharged but the prognosis is not good. The Doctors could not understand it because he has no pain at all which baffles them. My eldest Sister had only 1 boy and he married a Nurse. She is in a Private practice and is quite by chance a cancer Specialist and according to my youngest Sister she has told my eldest sister that her Husband, her Father-in Law will not suffer at all. She will make sure of that adding that they have special drugs which are not prescribed on the NHS. As she works for a private Hospital and is a cancer Specialist she has access to all drugs.
 The local Doctors has told him to eat and drink plenty and if he feels like going on Holiday then he should go, so now we wait and see what happens.
 As for me, I have no worries prepared to my Brother-in-Law. I went to see the Nurse and booked in but added that I was due to have a 3 monthly Blood tests this month and as I was also due for my annual diabetes check I wished if possible to have them both at the same time to save money. As I explained the senior receptionist butted in to inform me that I was having a diabetes check. I told her that I was only having a BP check this morning but she insisted that it had been booked for my Diabetes check and extra time had been booked. I then let her know that had I known I would have bought a urine sample. She asked me if I could give one now but I told her I had had my breakfast. She also told me that if I wished to book an appointment for a Hospital Blood test I could book it later after I had my appointment.
 In I went to the Nurse and she explained what she had done, gave me a small urine bottle and told me to take a sample in within a week. In fact I took it in yesterday. She also told me that last time she gave me a complete Blood test that the Hospital could look and see the results adding that she wished to see me in August but it was too soon to make an appointment, this would also do for the Hospital. I left thinking that the next appointment would be for Blood test and BP in August.
 I went to make an appointment in Mablethorpe to have my eyes tested, I was not too happy for either my eyes are getting very poor or the strength of glasses are not strong enough.
 I went in and to be honest the shop was not open until 9.s0.am. but the lady was displaying the spectacles so I knocked on the window, she beckoned me to enter and the first thing I asked was how much was the cheapest varifocals. Once she told me I booked an appointment for next Wednesday. This was far quicker than British Gas, they sent me a letter informing me that my annual boiler service was due and I should go Online and book the appointment. After several attempts I was offered a slot, believe it or not in August, still it has been confirmed it is an AM appointment.
I heard the Met. Office confirm that May was the warmest month on record. naturally that doesn't include the East Coast which has been rather cold and dull for ages. Yesterday we had some sun but today and the preceding 3 days has been misty very windy and cod. so much so my Central Heating has been on. More soon.
