    That must have been a real shock for your OH's family. Best wishes to you all.

    I'm glad you've had the call so soon for your op defib.gif Good luck!

    Thanks. He has been poorly for a while but all the same the end came very quickly. OH managed to see him on Friday, but his brother arrived 20 minutes too late.

  • Just had the phone call - op is tomorrow.Thank God! Nil by mouth from 6:00am, got to be at the ward by 12:00 noon. Will hopefully get to go home about 3:00-4:00pm.

    Best of luck with it.
    I don't know about you but I can get a bit wound up before such events (not that they have been frequent for me). Hope you managed to stay relaxed and that the medical staff are all gorgeous hunks. :p

    Your "nil by mouth" quote reminded me of something funny some years back. I used to work with some guy called Neil and I knew his wife too. She was due to have some op. He kept geeing her up that it was a misprint and "Nil" should have been "Neil". It got her laughing though which she found a big help.

    Thanks Paul

    I think I am definitely wound up about it because I have no voice today - I tend to lose my voice if I am feeling stressed or anxious.

    I am hoping that I don't see anyone I know - the hospital I am going to is a teaching hospital linked to the medical school I work at.:eek:

    Today's pad is £2.87 thanks to my tidying up!
    Also recycled two ink cartridges so another £2 to come soon.

    For some reason my attempts at tidying seem to create more mess!

  • Evening Padders!

    Well done to those paying things off!

    Gilli - I heard that's it's bad luck to give a piggy bank or purse as a gift with no money in it...tell your mum to buy you a purse and slip a twenty in it for you just to be on the safe side :D

    How you doing Paul? You're posts seem shorter than usual...hope everything is o.k?

    Another £11.00 from me please Keza!

    Hope you've all had a fab day! x
