If it is the worst news remember that having your emergency funds and buffer will ensure at least any decisions will be eased in that respect. Take care ❤️Original Debt Owed Jan 18 = £17,630 Paid To Date = £6,736 Owed = £10,8944

It's been an eventful day today,I got up early and went to work but I was only there for an hour and the sister in charge sent me home again because I was so wheezy,I told her I felt ok but my chest is still wheezy when I talk but she said I shouldn't be at work like that so I came home and went back to bed, she told me to contact my GP on Monday to ask for another certificate so I'm going to do that,I argued that I didn't want to go home because of my sickness record she said I have seen that you are not well so I will back you up if they say anything about it 🤷♀️
I came home and went back to bed because I was up most of the night and was shattered. Betty came home at 1.30 and is now asleep in her bed 😍😍she is not allowed to go up the stairs so DD2 carried her up all the steps in the garden, luckily we have a baby gate at the bottom of the stairs so she can't go up there until we take her up at bedtime, DD2 is going to take her bed into her room tonight so she can sleep in there, she can only have 10 minute walks on the lead on the flat so she won't be very impressed with that. They have advised a bland diet of cooked chicken for the next few days while she gets over the anaesthetic
She looks very happy to be home but is also very sleepy so I've got her next to where I'm sitting in her bed asleep. I'm so glad she is back home and now just have to hope and pray that it's not bad news next week. She has to go back in 10 days for a post op check up so we should get the results by then. I am so glad I didn't cancel her insurance because they weren't very good last time I tried to claim,this time they won't be able to wriggle out of it so it should be fine ,I have arranged for my vet to claim from them direct but I still have to pay the excess and 20% extra because of her age. The final bill today is £1416.00 🙀🙀🙀
I am reworking my budget to allow for big future bills because I don't put money away for this,I rely on the insurance and my EF so I think I need to plan to build up a decent fund to pay for future costs even if I can them claim them back. We are going to concentrate on getting her well now and trying to spend lots of quality time together 😍Original Debt Owed Jan 18 = £17,630 Paid To Date = £6,736 Owed = £10,8946 -
I'm sure she'll enjoy the time together.
Glad the sister sent you home and can see you aren't well. Can't imagine it's nice feeling so rubbish and having to go to work xSeptember 2017 Debt = £25330

I imagine in these covid times having someone on the wards with a wheeze is also worrying for everyone, even if you have been cleared. Think your colleague did the right thing.
I hope B carries on getting better and that the test results are good news 🤞Debt free Feb 2021 🎉4 -
I just wanted to see how your diary and you are, and feel very sad for you all now, I am hoping for the best for you, and the little furry one... Take care....(sending a little virtual cuddle your way)"...when you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains however improbable, must be the truth..."
