Chickengrandma...................

[stan3502]

Just wanted to wish you well with your op tomorrow and say I will be thinking about you :-x

[bitsnknots]

I'd definitely persist over the stronger painkillers.  After all, it's not the physioterrorist that is in pain CG, it's you.

Sending more gentle hugs.

:-x

The nurse said she'll have a look at my wound when I get ready for bed.  I've not seen it yet.  All my notes are left in my room so I was having a look at them yesterday, about the operation.  It lasted 120mns and he had to cut the wound longer and deeper because of...and then a word that I didn't know (and can't remember now) but I googled it, and it was as I thought,....................................................................................fat cells.😐

[hightara]

thems not fat cells........... they are well earned.......i loved it cells:-x

[captainbovine]

ah well CG, never mind, someone has to have them, you've got them for the South of England, I have them for N. Wales....simples:^O

[rainydaywoman11]

I wouldn't mind a wee bit of fat cells on me posterior - all my weight gain (from the steroids)  goes on the top half - I look like a lollipop :|:^O

Plus I now have boobs to rival Mae West - up to a 38C 😮  With my wee skinny legs I'm a bonny sight 😛

[hightara]

ah dont worry about the weight.......who really gives a flying chuck...

ive put on over a stone and lost my front tooth from chomping choklit.

just get well ladies......... we are all here for ya:-x

[captainbovine]

never mind Rainy...flaunt them matey, give the milkman a thrill:^O

[chickengrandma-2008]

Another night of just laying here!  I must have had a grand total of erm........................6 hours sleep since 5 am last Tuesday morning.  The main reason is I can only lay flat on my back for 6 weeks.  I'm sure if I could just turn over and bend one leg up I'd sleep for hours.

I wonder what Lottie will do when I get home??  She'll go mad!!!:^O

I wonder if there's roast dinner on the menu tomorrow.

The nurse just brought me a mug of tea and watched a bit of the repeat of BGT.  Did anyone see that 11 year old girl?  She was fantastic, but eleven????, not eighteen??:O

[10phizz]

CG..........I hope reading these comments doesn`t make you giggle as much as I do..or it will hurt !   Get well soon.

[chickengrandma-2008]

There's another night gone, thank goodness. Only one more to go hopefully.  Obs all ok, tears mopped up (once again) silly old s*d!! X-(     I think I got two whole hours joined together this time.

Hope everyone has a nice Sunday.:-D

awwwwwwwwww CG, think positive, that's another day nearer being all better 🙂

You'll feel much better once you're back home with Mr CG, Lottie & all your own stuff around you 🙂

Any further forward with the pain relief?  My OH had a new knee put in a few weeks ago & was put on some really heavy duty painkillers for several weeks afterwards. Makes sense - you're more likely to do the exercises if it doesn't hurt you to do them .................. but then again, being spaced out & wired to the moon helps too 🙂  Still hurts but you just don't give a monkeys!

gentle hugs

🙂

[merc1_clocks]

Morning you silly old s*d 😛

Once you get home...it's onwards & upwards...

I hate being in hospital - it makes me feel ill :^O

[ilove2patch]

But she is our silly old s*d.:-x

[hightara]

ah CG sending you loads of hugs:-x

at least you can leave of your own accord......last time i was in......i was sectioned:^O

It might only be a question of time tara!  LOL

I'm feeling a bit better now.  Still crying the minute anybody looks at me but I've had some morphine.  My son has been and said as I'm a private patient I should get class A drugs.  Only a joke!!!

I think they (or I) let the pain get out of control rather than keeping on top of it.  I've got to go and do some stairs in a minute.  I hope I can, I feel a bit squew whiff!

[huggles1253]

Aww I wish I was nearer, I really want to come and plump your pillows! Hope the stairs went well. X

[huggles1253]

😐

I just re-read that and it sounds a bit wrong! It was meant in a friendly, caring way but came out a bit lesbian.

[chickengrandma-2008]

The little German doctor has been and taken more blood. She listened to my chest and said the embolism is still there but not as big.  I went in a wheelchair to the stairs and did the first three up and down.  Every time she says I'm doing it well I say 'Well, I've seen the man do it on youtube!'  

The number of times I tell them about FHG and the sewing thread and say that most of these cards (and chicken and heart) are from people I've never met.  They all think it's lovely.

You can take liberties you know.  I got son to put my socks on me this morning!!!:^O

[chickengrandma-2008]

Ooo my roast chicken dinner has arrived!:-x

[rainydaywoman11]

I am so glad you now have some decent pain relief CG and it's ok to cry whilst in hospital.  You feel so vulnerable and you are in pain.  Plus you never get any peace.  Always someone from somewhere wants a bit of you, testing oxygen levels, taking bloods, temp, pulse, blood pressure and bowels - they are always obsessed with bowels.  Plus you have the additional attention in the shape of the physio - oh joy :^O

It'll all be worth it in the end and hope you get home soon.:-x  And trust you to get a rash, what are you like?  Enjoy your lunch.
