    Catch up on your sleep while he's in hospital.  You'll  be run off your feet when he comes home.

    day 4

    Cant belive how quick the days go by now, wish they had when we were waiting for results of tests before the op,anyway Bill seems to be responding to meds doctors say everything is going well,spoke to the HDU nurse last night, morphien working well ,he's fallen in love with the button, she said he will not be allowed to forget the glow in the dark condom conversation that he had with her last night( will be having a few words today when I visit  lol)  will  keep you updated on that one later.

    Bill's lung collapsed and had to be returned to HDU where they found out that the morphien feed had bent in his arm so when he pressed the button he was getting very little or none at all so he was in a lot of pain and not breathing properly so his lung collapsed. He now is out of HDU and now in another ward where the care is better ,he now is eating and drinking and doing fine hopefully the next step this time is home .thanks to everybody who sent their best whishes to Bill .
