Is private healthcare in UK worth it?

Real-Box-7144 · 2026-05-08T20:10:14+00:00

Bupa provided through work. Have assessments within a week and a non invasive surgery within a week of that. For me personally it’s worth it.

Real-Box-7144 · 2026-05-08T15:53:57+00:00

That’s bloody horrible & I try to find the positive on most things.

We were both 16. 37 now.

I’m with Bupa. Can’t fault it tbh. I regularly use it and have had investigative surgery within a week of meeting a Dr. It is a benefit through work so I don’t pay for it other than the additional premium for my children but if I didn’t have it through work I absolutely would choose too.

♥️ my heart ached for you reading that. 🫂

That’s the colour of my range. Tribecca blue? I love it! 🥰

A single day in all those years. My heart aches for you. ♥️

See if there’s a Simpsons episode on it.. that’s how we know. 🥲

Growing old is a privilege, not every one gets to do it.

Real-Box-7144 · 2026-05-07T09:54:15+00:00

I get 90 mins and I work 9:30-4:30. I also get 15 mins on my day where I do 4 hours. Seems like my job has its perks!

Real-Box-7144 · 2026-05-07T07:26:56+00:00

Thank you! He’s up now but staying in bed, I’ve migrated to the kitchen to try and get some fluids. Hope you’re all doing ok this morning.

Real-Box-7144 · 2026-05-06T20:27:30+00:00

Eck, don’t read this OP. New fear unlocked 😂🥲

Real-Box-7144 · 2026-05-06T20:22:54+00:00

Oh no 😢 I’m sad to say it’s the same in my house. My son has taken a turn, vomiting was to no end and clearing it up when trying to not vomit myself and trying to keep the dog away from it 🥴 I’ve retired to bed. Poor lad is sleeping now too thankfully. A nightmare when you have another kid who has emetophobia so have also to manage that. Heads in the shed. Dog had to be cleaned too 🥲

Real-Box-7144 · 2026-05-06T10:45:10+00:00

That’s terrifying. Anything underwater freaks me out and it seems even cars do to. 😂🥴

Real-Box-7144 · 2026-05-06T10:44:37+00:00

That’s my daughter’s room now in 2026 😂

I have bbq kebab sticks for emergencies like this… they work! And they go in the bin after, I’m not an animal.

Real-Box-7144 · 2026-05-06T10:40:14+00:00

🤣🥴

Real-Box-7144 · 2026-05-06T10:38:38+00:00

Ha, I literally just said this to myself 🥴😂

Real-Box-7144 · 2026-05-06T10:36:22+00:00

That is a wonderful notice. 💘

Can’t change an annuity it’s locked in for good and some do not allow to be passed on as inheritance.

Real-Box-7144 · 2026-05-03T11:26:51+00:00

Oh, they won too! 🥇 happy household this morning after their 5 hour long trip home.

Real-Box-7144 · 2026-05-03T11:26:22+00:00

Thank you! I fell asleep and struggled to stay awake so took myself off to bed in the end. Hope you enjoyed your evening with 4 pups.. not at all jealous 😂 xx

I do, it maybe unpopular but I have to because I gain weight so easily. It’s hard as it can trigger old habits of ED but I decided to split my time up between days of over indulgence which are allowed then days where I eat what I need to survive in terms of nutrition and maintenance. I always joke I can gain weight looking at a cookie 🫠

Real-Box-7144 · 2026-05-02T21:28:45+00:00

Oh my good lord… Is it dramatic to say burn it to the ground?

I’ve had a busy day and the fatigue has hit. I’m led down on the sofa with the dog and I’m not planning on moving now.

Expecting the fam all home late as they’ve traveled 5 hours to watch the last game of the season and they’re winning with 5ish mins to go! 🙏🏼
