Hi peoples ,well ive had my op on tuesday 8am to 10.30 ive been up since wednesday showering myself got a vac bag attached so i have to carry it with me and im like a ninety year old turtle to get to the loo but one day at a time .
The doc came he has spoken to my surgeon said when they went in they could not find it in my blood they took some mre nodes so they cut from across the belly button down my groin and almost half way down my leg. They found melanoma in the fatty area of the groin (dont know where cos i have no fat) anyway basically they said they have no idea where or what it was trying to do or go to so did a big section ,now we wait for healing process no guarantees for re- occurence but i just want to get on with my life with my hubby ,i did have a cry today but im ony human
Love to u all and thank u for being there for me and graeme xxx keep u posted

Is it me r are pictures not working got rid of avatar now new one wont load :(
Vic said
03:27 PM Jan 6, 2012
Not sure, did you click the select new avatar button to take you to your pictures/documents first? Should just put it on automatically after that.
If you did I am not too sure what the problem is but others might be able to help.
Don't stress out too much about it, we want you well soon, so get plenty of rest!

Yeah did all that it wont let me select a file i press select and nthing happens normally works easy oh well another time

Where is Wombat when you need him, lol !
I think there is a limit to the size of the Avatar, so that might be the problem, try a smaller one and see if that works (or the previous one).
I think Beth may be sussing it out on another post too.
If all else fails, contact Cindy there may be a problem with the system.

fantastic news Della, take your time in recovery.
Just going to have a look at the pic & Av problem will be back soon

03:57 PM Jan 6, 2012
just test pic
Hmmm, that pic works ok from my end, perhaps it's that iPad not working correctly, if it's not doing what you want and you want to throw it away let me know and I'll send you my home address, I will also pay for postage.
Do you know what size the pic is?
When you say choose button, do you mean the browse button?
Av is also working ok for me, you really need to throw away that iPad

All the best for a good recovery glassies. Take it slow, with such a large cut you wouldn't want to go rushing around too much.

Good start to the New Year for you both now that your op is behind you. Things will slowly improve and with the help of good deep breaths, will improve quicker. Just as good as exercising at this point in time. Keep your chin up and all the best to you both.
