Florida 2004 - Last 2 days......... SOB!

[sundowner]

What a terrible year for you. Things will get better. If you are with RCI for your timeshare you could book through them to go to Florida.

Wow Linda, poor you and your hubby, hope things are on the up and up now.[msnsmile]

Thanks for your good wishes guys - Yes, things ARE on the up, thank goodness! We are going to Tenerife for a week just before Christmas - some friends collected some money so we could pay the balance, how kind are they?? We are using our timeshare, and would have lost the week otherwise........... It's with Sunterra not RCI.

Things can only get better, and we are planning a 3 or 4 week jaunt in 2007! Will incude Las Vegas and California too! (Might as well think big eh??)

Remember the song Linda "Things can only get better", well it looks like things are improving with your trip to Tenerife on the horizon.
Hope that Tim continues to improve and that 2006 is "your year".
Good Luck and keep us all in touch with what happens

The run of "luck" continues...............

I've been suffering with a flu type virus for the last couple of weeks, lost voice, cough, tiredness etc, just starting to feel better, and on Monday my face started to feel strange, well after a barrage of tests at the hospital, it seems I now have Bells Palsy, so the right side of my face is paralysed.......... I look like Quasimodo! Apparently it can be linked to stress too, so I guess being run down didn't help! So, another obstacle to climb, but I am back to work on Monday, although I can hardly talk, but we can't afford for any more time off, just got to "grin" (which is very lopsided!) and bear it!

Thank you all for your good wishes though, knowing that people are thinking of you helps! [msnsmile2]

[LiesaAnna]

poor you Linda!
hope you feel better soon, maybe getting back into work with all the christmas festivities coming up you will be better in no time![grouphug] heres a hug! that'll help, cos its from OV always helpful!!

[dbrook]

Sorry to hear this Linda. I had Bells Palsy when I was a teenager. Can you imagine that - it wasn't cool at all and I got fed up of people asking me if I had had a stroke!!! Probably took me about 4 weeks to return to normal. I think I got it from a draft on a car journey. Didn't know what stress was at that time, although it would look very likely that yours is stress related with the unfortunate year you have had Food tastes like plastic too doesn't it Linda[V]

Anyway my best wishes for a quick recovery and lets hope 2006 is a lot better year for you all.

[Ray&Sarah]

Sorry to hear about your latest problems Linda.

I have a friend who developed Bells Palsy last year, she too thinks it was as a result of a draft from her car window (which wouldn't shut properly). She seemed to be back to normal after 3-4 weeks and it hasn't re-occurred.

Have a good Christmas and hope 2006 is a good one.[grouphug]
