    thanks bluedog, you really shouldn't have been sent home before the help was in place, I didn't really feel a 'proper' assessment had been done but at least I had DH at home to a) run round after me and b) kick up a stink if I needed anything. So much harder if you are on your own!

    btw, on the subject of bras, remember that if your arm is tied to your body in a sling, you get a certain amount of support from your arm, so you really won't be flopping about the way you normally would.

    Will be thinking of you!

    At least this time I didn't have any boys at home, and last time they were old enough to not worry about (and I taught DS3 to use the washing machine because he was sailing that week with school!)
