Oh guys thank-you so so much for the beautifil encouraging words . They mean the world to me and help so much .
 
I am contining to push myself . Saturday i went to the biggest indoor market phewwww , then to a giant indoor play area with the children as i promised them .
 
Sunday was a day in but i was in agony anyway but still went to a supermarket and did a big faily roast .
 
Today was and still is horrible . I went to town to show in-laws the town centre . I had already booked an appointment for the doctors for me to see if they can 
 
give me anything for the pain in my side thats getting worse . Well my MIL nearly collapsed in a huge sports shop . We rushed her home in an taxi to rest up .
 
She's so brave she was very ill before coming to us but wild horses wouldnt stop her meeting us . She has brontitus , half a lung missing and a huge gallstone 
 
which they cant operate on because of her lung condtion .
 
Well i watched her and wasnt happy with what i saw , so i dragged her with me to the doctors . I went upstairs to mine and she saw another one downstairs .
 
When i went down she was on a nebuliser with a nurse and doctor . He phoned her doctor because he was so concerned . She really should have been admitted
 
to hospital but is waiting to see if the drugs they gave her will ease her . Watching her like a hawk at the mo . Im not freaking out but m quite anxious .
 
 
Well theres my mega waffle !!! Off to read the threads now :)

Congratulations on such progress. You must be so proud of yourself...
By the way ,Mothers-in-Law have a way of making even the most un-anxious of us anxious.  Methinks it
goes with the terrritory!  I  really hope you feel the pride that we all feel in you.  To be in that situation and to ride
it through to its conclusion is such a triumph.  I mean that is what this is all about to be able to face
it and to be successful...You are an inspiration to us all.  I'm almost excited to try some exposure today...The feeling of
doing it is quite magical although during the event not so much if I recall.  Have a great day and don't forget to
reward yourself!!!
