And home, battered and bruised and very very tired, but home.
The NHS are amazing and I am so, sogreatful to all the staff, the whole team: Dr's, nurses, anthestists, porters, healthcare assistants, caterers.
So appreciative right now

But also did I mention knackered! Hospitals are so noisy at night!

I never get any sleep in hospital. If find them both noisy and waaaay too warm!

Glad you are safely home 😊 Be gentle with yourself and rest, yes?

Hi KK, thanks so much for stopping by. I am resting, absolutly whacked and so in bed!! I have slept a lot today but still exhausted and unfortunatly the pain is back and the next meds arnt for 2 hours, so I am on here trying to distract myself!!

I was very lucky in that my bed was by a window, which I was able to keep open which was lovely plus I got to see the sky and the helicopters coming in plus a beautiful sunset and 2 rainbows!

im sitting here in tears, The pain is horrid and the dog is asking for his tea, Ive just realised that i gave him the last bit yesterday. I havent been up to going out and driving today and DH seems to be hiding away from me and not engaging, I cant quite understand it. If he had come out of hospital yesterday, I would be checking in, offering cups of tea, asking about the pain, seeing what treats I could get. etc. I am very saddened, but then also feel like I am being needy!! I am usually the one who just quietly gets on with everything!!

I need to think what I can make for the dog from what we have! Maybe an egg cooked up with some rice and carrots?

Only 5 minutes and I can take the next pain meds, huurah!
I also cooked dogo scrambled egg and found some baked beans in the fridge. He looked at bit confused at his odd dinner when I gave it to him, but he's eaten it all. Tomorrow I will have to go out and get his food!

Can one of the kids go out and fetch dog's dinner for you? I used to feed the dog rice and eggs, he also used to love chickpeas too and I usually keep a random bag of mixed veg in for emergencies which would take minutes to boil up and he'd eat that too. Hope the pain meds kick in soon. Will you be able to take more just before bed tonight so you can sleep properly?

Bit unimpressed with your OH … (sorry). Does he not understand quite how brutal and unpleasant a process you have just been through? Sending a big but gentle hug x

Not sure what painkillers you have been given but I have previously been advised to take different types staggered two hours apart to keep the pain under control. Obviously you have to work within any allergies.

Well the pain got worse and I'm back in hospital again!
In different antibiotics and lots of pain meds.
Fingers crossed it will work this time

DH did actually come good on Wednesday, he went to the SM and bought lots of things I can hopefully eat like mouse, soup and jelly.!
Just a shame I'm not at home to have them lol!!
