Keep on drumming Phil, YNWA, we're all thinking about you

by **mrsDrummerphil** » Mon May 22, 2006 11:55 pm

Just about to come on and say what a totally shlt day we have had but once again you have lifted my spirits and I sit here in tears and not knowing how to face Phil tomorrow but you have given me the hope and courage to face another day. Phil was so very low today, so confused, scared and anxious, still dont think he has come to terms with what is happening and can't blame him, no one but no one can truly understand what he is going through and it is tearing me apart. I had no messages or post for him today (nothing against you guys cause you are great) but he was already on a all time low and finding it hard to find a reason to be here.
He needs something to hold on to, to know he is loved and cared for but some days all the love on this earth is not enough to console him and I would surely give him my own life if it would save his. My son was home poorly today and I just didnt know what to do, my son needed his mum and Phil needed my love my heart is torn in two I feel so alone, a feel such a bad mum not being there for my son, I feel I am letting Phil down by not being able to be with him all day. I need to be strong for Phil, I need to get my act together to be here for when he comes home but today I fail, I need a kick up the rear, to stop feeling sorry for myself and get a grip.
But coming on here helps, seeing you havent give up on him helps, your love and support helps and having something to print off for him tomorrow helps. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Phil wanted me to post this tonight:
Evening, just got back from the hospital. Phil bit brassed off today, I think 5 weeks in there upto yet is really getting to him. Still no help with any internet for him and hes getting well frustrated. Anyway he sends his love and best to many, many special people on here. He has been given some forms to consider today regarding some foundation holding special events for you in circumstances like these i.e. sporting event, hot air balloon flights, parties etc and mentioned he would like to get us all together as a thankyou for your friendship and support at a certain Spanish restaurant in West Kirby for us all to let our har down although Phil cant let his down anymore because he is bald now. Anyway Goodnight and thinking of you all.

Drummerphil.

Karen....

When you walk through a storm
hold your head up high
And don't be afraid of the dark.
At the end of a storm is a golden sky

And the sweet silver song of a lark.
Walk on through the wind,
Walk on through the rain,
Tho' your dreams be tossed and blown.

Walk on, walk on with hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone,
You'll never, ever walk alone.

Walk on, walk on with hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone,
You'll never, ever walk alone.

You, Phil and your family are in all our thoughts.

Mrsdrummerphil, you've got every right to feel sorry for yourself and few people here, me included, can really comprehend what you're going through and how hard it must be. There's so little we can say or do, but we are thinking of you and Phil all the time. It's weird to think that so many can care for someone who, for the most part, we have never even met, but we do. And we care about his family too, so whatever we can do, we will.

I did have a thought about the Internet thing. If Phil has got his Laptop with him, there should be a slot on the side for mobile access. Vodafone and a couple of other mobile phone companies make cards that run through mobile networks which act as servers. I don't know how much they cost, but I'll try and find some info on them.

Are thoughts are with you and Phil as always, YNWA.

Vodafone Mobile Connect

I don't know if this helps, but it could be the answer to Phil getting online.

Hope the cd's are ok mate.

We're all thinking of you.

Mrs Drummerphil, I know little english, but I know a lot about human beings, and you're a great human being. Don't feel like a bad mum, to reach everywhere in the battle you all are fighting you must be beyond human, you cannot be in two places at the same time, you're doing your best, and doing what's humanly possible, you're doing great.

I never took too seriously the relationships that are based just in the internet, but this case it's like Phil was one of my friends around here. I think about his situation at work, in the bus when I'm going home, and I tell my closest people about it, and they ask me about how Phil's doing -- Both Itsaso my girlfriend and Maria my best friend send you the best wishes.

About the cards, CIGGY you're rite, we must keep on fighting or start fighting on that aspect too. I have some things prepared for Phil but also wanted to write a hand written mail for him, and I have found not time for doing this properly and with time (I'm working + having 2 exams very soon to finish my career) so I've delayed it, but I promise I'll send him the whole thing very soon.

When the beginning of the month comes (and the wages with it) I'll make another donation, the sum we have achieved is nice, but the battle is long and the more we can help him, the better.

Thanks again for bringing that feedback from Drummerphil, and please do tell him that this Spaniard really cares about him. Thank you for sharing how you feel MrsDrummerphil, I feel proud that you deposit that confindence on us, please do whenever you want. I think it helps, and reading some truths (like you're doing greatly) might help you too -- In hard times we forget sometimes to look the positive things, and some friend words are necessary.

Hugs.

All the best Phil, I didnt get to chat to you as I'm a newbie but I have read some of your posts on here and you seem to have it all, good sense of humour, common sense and an abiding love for Liverpool. Take care mate and never stop believing.

If Phil isn't getting any post can the transcripts of this forum be printed out for him? Can't imagine it would make amazing reading but at least something to boost his spirits

Mrs Drummer Phil

Your feelings are perfectly normal. No-one can put themselves in your position and know exactly how you feel - it isn't possible. At the same time, you can't be in two places at once - that isn't possible either. It's essential you ask close friends and relatives for help. Don't be afraid to have some time purely for yourself. You're human not superhuman, so don't try to be the World's best wife/mother/nurse/friend/etc. There's is only so much you can do. I reckon Phil will fully understand. Your love for your family is clear to see, and it's obvious that you will continue to do all you can in these trying months. The only way to stay strong is to maintain some balance. My mother-in-law goes to the hospital every day to see her sick (adult) son. She's done this for a couple of years now and it's putting a strain on her marriage and her husband's health. We've been trying to convince her to go on holiday and she seems to be slowly accepting the idea. We've got her to miss some days at the hospital recently by promising that someone else will go, so her son will have some company. We're all frail humans - just because we need rest doesn't mean we don't love other people. The key word is balance. If you think about it literally, the more things you're carrying, the more important it is to keep your balance.

Please send my best wishes to Phil.

Andy
