Boo Mayhew

James and Missyme - thank you both for your lovely comments ... I have stopped participating on the boards and blogging for now at least ... it feels as though I just need to live my life, rather than analyse everything that I'm doing these days :-) But I will always be happy to be here for you if you need to talk x

Hi Andy's Mom, I just saw that you had visited my profile and that you hadn't posted yet. I know it is hard to type your first post, but I promise you that you will find nothing but kindness and empathy on this board. Please add a new topic telling us about Andy. I have not lost a child, but I do know what loss feels like. If you want to email me: margo.mayhew@pfizer.com

hey my lovely friend, hope the kidney stones are on their way out. I know an old Indian cure: get 5 or 6 long "hairs" off a fresh corn on the cob ... put them in a pan of fresh cold water and bring to the boil, then let cool. Boil and leave to cool three times. Remove the "hairs" and drink the water. An old Indian friend's Dad told me this remedy and it worked for Cliff...

A young lady who is wise beyond her years and who learned the lessons that her Dad taught her so well. A fantastic sounding board and sanity-checker for anyone, but especially those who are grieving a parent. I have tried to give Chai a five star rating but not sure if it has worked.
