    Hi Lou and El.

    I've just shared your thoughts with SB and he's well up for it. We're going to see how much we have tonight and can then plan a little from there.

    Had a letter from hospital this morning. They've moved my surgery from the 12th to 19th December as my favourite surgeons off on the 12th and he wants to do it...:A

    Pot of lentil soup is made. Took Grandad out for lunch as a very belated birthday treat. He said he'd only accept if we sang Happy Birthday, so we did :T

    That's great your getting the surgeon you like to do the op ... It's always good to have someone you trust doing the work required :)

    Now get a list going as to what your doing with the pennies :)

    mmmmm difficult one - for me it would be a very difficult choice between Barra and Orkney

    I've always wanted to go to both - Barra as my Grandad used to go to every summer & I've always wanted to see it ..... Orkney - as it's just looks beautiful (would have to do Shetland too!)

    Hi Lou,

    Sorry thought I'd said. I'm getting quite a lot of pain and they think think it's the layers of scars under my breast...there's surgery wounds plus the burns from the radiation plus what looks like a brand from the intenses booster radio. He's going to lipo some fat from my thighs and tummy (I've told him to keep going til the buckets full :T) and he'll then inject it along my chest. I'll be sound asleep so I won't care.

    Back's sore as well along the scar so bedtime morphine plus a cookie is back on the menu. There's fluid build up front and back so just taking it carefully. No all nighters for me anymore.

    Hopefully in and out on the 19th...I'll be badly bruised but that's about it. Bit of arnica and I'll be ready for my turkey :j:j

    Hope you're having a nice weekend.

    KJ xx
