Meet up Aberdeen

Everyday living

Hi everyone.

Myself and another lady on this site are planning to have a get together, just something informal, in a pub or cafe. Just wondered if we can get any more people from the Aberdeen area to join us.

Hi Cheryl, just let me know and I will drag this battered bruised body along. Actually if truth be told I did most of the battering and bruising long before the MS took a grip. My mother described it as a hedonistic lifestyle which left her amazed that she did not have a raft of extra grandchildren. I used to treat my body as a temple but as with all temples sooner or later it falls into ruin. But what a time I had destroying it. Any way I digress, just let me know when you are meeting up and remember to call me if those forms come through and you need a hand. I kept a copy of mine and had a letter putting me in the support group within two weeks.

Yes Ann Marie, October hols sound like a good idea.

thanks Gary, I just filled in quite a simple form on the phone, then got a medical certificate from my gp.

Well Cheryl, following the completion of your simple form on the phone War and Peace is about to drop through your letterbox. It is a quagmire and full of things to trip you up. You have no idea how many different ways they have of asking the same question. As I said call me when it lands with a thud behind your front door.
