HE REALLY WENT DOWNHILL BECAUSE OFF THE DRUGS HE WAS ON & THE SURGEON DECIDED TO OPERATE ON HIM YESTERDAY. MY PARTNER PAUL & I DROVE DOWN EARLY THURSDAY MORNING TO SEE HIM & ALSO BE WITH MUM. WHEN WE GOT THERE HE SEEMED LIKE THE MAN WE NEW BEFORE, HE WAS OUT OF BREATH MOST OF THE TIME BUT COULD TALK ALRIGHT & SMILED SUM OF THE TIME. THEY TOOK HIM AT AROUND 9:15 am & YOU COULD SEE IN HIS EYES HOW SCARED HE WAS. THEN IT WAS THE WAIT. I CAN DO THE NORMAL CLEANING STUFF AROUND THE HOUSE & THE HOURS SEEM TO FLY BY BUT WE SEEMED TO NOTICE EVEY HOUR. MY MUM IS SO SCARED, WORRIED, TIRED IN FACT SHE LOOKED TOTALLY WORN OUT PLUS SHE HAS NOW DEVELOPED A BLOODY COLD. WE WENT BACK AT 2:30 & ALTHOUGH HE WAS OUT OF THEATRE HE WAS IN RECOVERY & WE STILL HAS TO WAIT. PAUL TOLD MY MUM THAT SHE HAD TO GO TO SLEEP FOR A COUPLE OF HOURS BECAUSE SHE WAS SHATTERED & SHE SAIS YES SHE WOULD BUT DIDNT GO UNTIL ABOUT 8:00pm , ANYWAY, AT 8:45 HE WAS BROUGHT BACK TO HIS WARD & WE HAD TO GO & GET MUM OUT OF THE CAR. AFTER A FEW MINIUTES OF GETTING HIM COMFORTABLE WE WENT INTO SEE HIM FOR A LITTLE WHILE. THE TUBES & MOINITORS WERE ALL OVER HIS BODY & THE MASK MADE IT DIFFICULT TO TALK BUT HE HAS MADE IT THREW THE OP & I KNOW ITS A LONG PATH BUT IM SURE HE CAN DO IT. I RANG MUM THIS MORNING, SHE IS STAYING AT A B&B RUN BY THE HOSPITAL & SHE SAID THAT HE HAS HAD A COMFORTABLE NIGHT & HE WAS ALRIGHT, THEN SHE SAID THAT SHE HAD A CALL FROM DAD`s PHONE & IT WAS HIM ASKING HER WHEN SHE WAS COMMING TO SEE HER, THAT SOUNDS LIKE THE OLD DAD WHICH WE LOVE, OLD, THATS A LAUGH, HE IS ONLY 66. WE GO TO SEE HIM AGAIN ON SATURDAY & HOPEFULLY HE WILL IMPROVE EACH TIME WE GO<div style="clear:both;"></div><img src="https://community.macmillan.org.uk/aggbug?PostID=223016&AppID=18190&AppType=Weblog&ContentType=0" width="1" height="1">Former Memberhttps://community.macmillan.org.uk/members/formermember
