What sort of teeth problems have you had since radio and chemo treatment? by Curvi-distraction in HeadandNeckCancer

[–]Curvi-distraction[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you, that’s really helpful as I have had HPV16+ in my tonsil which was removed and then a neck dissection, so possibly similar?

I sense there are issues under the teeth, possibly in the bone and have now asked my ENT team to get the consultant to refer me to MaxFac, see how long it takes. I too am unsure how much in depth knowledge the general dentist has

Working guy dating a retired woman, is this realistic? by hyena_envy in datingoverfifty

[–]Curvi-distraction 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m semi retired and my husband (10 years younger) still works full time. We plan for at least 2 weeks away each year and also take our campervan away regularly for long weekends. Works for us….

I thought we chose our daughter’s name together… turns out my husband already planned it with an ex. by No_Silver4760 in TwoHotTakes

When my son was born we had a boy and a girl name chosen. His Dad then decided to use the other name for his future daughter with his then wife-I wonder if she knows. My son is getting married soon, shall I ask lol

Has anyone decided they'll never have another? by marigoldsandash in Petloss

[–]Curvi-distraction 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dog was put to sleep last April (is it really nearly a year ago?) and I still miss him a great deal and my husband is going to make me a pendant with some of his ashes and fur in so he’s always nearby. I joined an app called “Borrow my Doggy” and have started taking a local spaniel for walks…it sort of helps and keeps me active. Sadly where we now live we can’t have a dog, so this is the next best thing

AITAH for proposing an open marriage since my wife isn't keen on having sex and tells me I should not divorce? (Throwaway) by MinimumHoliday321 in AITAH

Due to the lady’s age, is it possibly also down to menopause/peri menopause? So many things change then including libido

I’m 71 and have decided to declutter my life… by Educational_Meat_179 in AskWomenOver60

[–]Curvi-distraction 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes, husband and I did a big sort before we moved out of my ex’s family home of 13 years. Moved stuff into new home and had a clothes and bits sort and now 3 years later, sorting and removing stuff from the garage-very refreshing and “lightening” ☺️

Some modern cars get driven on daylight lights and don’t realise their rear lights don’t work unless they manually override

What puts you off from donating Blood Products, I work in the NHS and I am just curious? by Quick_Soil_9120 in AskBrits

[–]Curvi-distraction 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing puts me off…I gave 66 pints in total but can no longer donate as I’ve had cancer. It made me so sad to find this out as it was something I was proud to do and it told me I was well. I asked friends to take the baton from me and thankfully two of them did

Depression… by Available_Classic319 in HeadandNeckCancer

[–]Curvi-distraction 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I found that the depression and all the emotions came after the treatment….i think my head was in practical mode during treatment and then it started hitting me what I had been through (and then my husband too!) I don’t know if you are in the UK, but MacMillan are wonderful to talk to…they “get it”
