I need little help from my friends!

[Guest guest]

Hi my friends

I hope you all have had happy holidays and I definitely hope you are

all well!!! I've mist talking with you but I must say it is a rather

difficult time for me right now since due to my very weak fighters

(white blood cells) above all the other problems I have now a bad

cold too, so most of the time I'm at bet.

I really miss working and carrying on with my life! Anyway I just

wonted to tell you all that after some contacts I've done these past

weeks (that came from the info and the boost, you my cyber friends,

gave me, and I can't thank you enough for that) I might finally be in

the right tract towards my treatment, by finding the correct doctor.

Of course it is impossible for him to be here in my land but more

likely in the UK.

I found out that our NHI could caver the expenses as long as it can

be proven that I can't be treated here. Of course it is a long battle

until I do that since it is a long process (NHI doctors examining me

and lots of papers) but I'm more than willing to do that.

I wish there could be someone out there to give me his/her personal

opinion for any of the UK's doctors, anything at all would help me a

lot (if the doc. is old or young if he/she is willing to help long

term, or help me on a pregnancy, or if she/he is accessible, if

needed, by phone since I live very far away and so on), as when I

will finally do this trip it would not probably be more than two days

so I need to take the " right " decision and avoid loosing precious

time. So my friends, any help?
