Wife has a procedure in Derriford on Friday morning @7:30AM.
So we have booked a hotel close to the hospital.
Also booked a meal at a restaurant that night.
Turns out that Thursday is their "Trust the chef" night, the menu is an invention with what fresh ingredients they have that night.
An adventure.

Last night the big parasol broke, one the arms snapped at the pivot point.
I was going to dump it (over 10yrs old)
But I looked at the break and had an idea.
I had some aluminium tubing left over from the veg netting frames, so I bashed it into a rhomboid shape. it fitted into the hollow arm perfectly.
A couple of rivets and a long bolt from the bits box and it is fine again.

@stannard@social.vivaldi.net To anybody who has got this far in this thread, Radiotherapy has changed a lot in the last 10years. It is far more finely targetted. While any treatment like that will have side effects, they are far less damaging than they used to be 30 years ago. And my wife has had 30 + years of life that she may not have had, not have rediscovered her lost daughter, not have met her grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

@stannard@social.vivaldi.net The UTIs that caused 3 episodes of sepsis were stopped by a drug called Methenamine Hippurate, first discovered in 1895! Taken twice daily with Vitamin C. It passes through the body unchanged, but it reacts with acidic urine (hence the need for Vitamin C) in the bladder to produce a weak formaldehyde solution. It was a last chance experiment suggested, along with drinking cranberry juice and taking d-Mannose tablets, as they were running out of antibiotics.

@stannard@social.vivaldi.net Yes any changes should be acted upon. My wife had radiotherapy for ovarian cancer 30 years ago. It undoubtedly saved her life, but caused damage to her colon, kidney and bladder, which has recently become a problem, leading to multiple hospitalisations for blood clots in the urine, recurrent UTIs, sepsis and intestinal blockages. She now has a stent in her Ureter (the tube between the kidney and the bladder) which has to be replaced every 6 months, and a stoma pouch.

The last 12 months has been exhausting.
Too many ambulance trips, too many 3AM journeys home after hours spent in A&E.
Too many hour long drives to visit hospital wards.
Hopefully there is light at the end of the tunnel.

@anne_twain @HardBeingGreen Memory foam gives way so that it moulds to your body, but rebounds when you get up. There are varying qualities, and some are good , some cheaper ones just collapse. Not a fan myself.

@Waxingtonknee All email addresses are disposable. Not easily, as it happens, as I discovered when moving from a city with Virgin Media broadband to a village without. Despite the warning that the account would disappear in 14 days from closing my account, it actually took me 6 months and several phone calls and emails to get it deleted.

@Iveyline@mastodon.nz @Em0nM4stodon@infosec.exchange Ubuntu, for an almost guaranteed easy to use desktop environment, with LibreOffice and other stuff pre-installed. There are many different options, different OS bases, different desktop environments, etc., but to get up and running quickly, Ubuntu would be my preference.

@Iveyline@mastodon.nz @Em0nM4stodon@infosec.exchange Only if you let them. There are many versions of Linux to choose from, some of which are easier to use than the mess that Windows and Mac have become.

@pafurijaz@mastodon.social The discussion of monetary support is missing the point. If he's been supporting it for 30+ years, he is probably 50+ and due to retire sometime soon. So what happens if he falls ill, or (hopefully not) dies?
