Operation Dyson Mission 1 Farts!

4 minute read time.
Afternoon! Thought I should fill you in on the story so far. On my phone that has its own weird idea or what I am trying to say and keeps changing the words so apologies for lack of sense or random words. What's different you say? Anyway I got the taxi tot he hospital for 7am they sit you in a waiting room until your op and then you get your. Bed afterwards . So I sat in a little room in my gown, dvt surgical stockings and giant paper knickers . What a glorious sight! The knickers are see through so couldn't really see the point of them. Anyway there was me and 2 ladies. First lady goes down at 8.30am and I am next. The other woman moaned and moaned at me about awful the wait was and how awful the whole thing was and.not drinking etc and she would die if she didn't get some food etc she also sat and read me stories from the Daily Mail a d the Sun that I was meant to besuitably outraged about. Aarrgghh she also showed me lots of baby photos not sure whose they were I forgot to listen! More moans and moans about how bad her lot was and how long she had to wait etc eventually I found out what she was in for. She had been seeing SC cos of bowel urgency. He said nothing wrong so she insisted on him removing a skintag from her bum. 5 min op and then home after an hour!!!! SHe also never went to the loo once on the 8 hours I was there.. Urgency indeed! Sorry no paragraphs. On this phone So I was meant to go about 11 am and eventually went at 3pm!! Thought my head was going to implode with dehydration. Dr freaked me out talking about having to have another. Bag while I recovered from this one and having to cut my whole abdomen open maybe and maybe there would be too much damage for it to work and that SC was suggesting I come back I a few times for dilation under anaesthetic using St. Mark's dilation look it up on google haha anyway go for the op and. Ext thing I know I'm out and rigged up to a morphine pump and wheeled up to ward. Nurse says it went ok but didn't know what that meant so had a feel and there was a dressing and no bag!!!! My bum was bleeding so I guessed he had got rid of the polyps I had dangling (sorry for graphic details) and probably stretched. One old senile lady ext to me... Wonder of she just roves hospital wards cos Ems had one too. Real old poor me I'm more I'll than you lady opposite and the other lady refused to go home till she had an op so been here 2 weeks! Apparently she gets bunged up at home. I tried to joke with her about what she was eating at home did t work! Hurt like buggery last night despite morphine at the click of a button. Wasn't allowed a nothing but sips of water. Had a glug instead and was promptly sick! One day I'll listen and do as I'm told haha yeah right... Woman opposite me gets. Devoid. Is she might have a temporary bag while her bowel heals so just now I had my dressing changed. Which is packed with gauze so have to pull it out and stuff it in again which made me cry a bit. Cos it hurt and she. Looked like she had seen a ghost when they drew back the curtains!!! Haha I told her it was fine . Of course I no longer have my invincibles so have to be careful with my lies cos my pants will catch fire now :D Saw SC he said have you got a present for me? Oh what's that? Says LM a fart! Says SC hahaaaa no farts. He pats my wound OUCH and says we have to be careful with you and keep an eye on you till you pass wind! Haha are they going to have a bum inspector sniffing?? He said he thought my bum was reasonably ok (what's that mean eh?) and that he had cut off the polyps and sent biopsies off in case they were cancerous eeeek! But all ok as long as I fart!! Had to take the morphine pump off cos it was leaking in my arm and my hand was swelling up. Boo! Was enjoying my narcotics! So my lovelies I am so far so good and asked if I could go for a walk in the gardens tomorrow hold your horses she said . So maybe a wheelchair with my mate will do the trick . Now, better try farting or I'm In Trouble oh and how do you gift wrap a fart??? Thanks so much for all your good wishes and love and hugs and giggles it helped so much and I felt so loved :) P is texting me haikus about the catsand the birds and things :) Hilary got wind (snigger) of this and has been writing bum haikus for me. There's always one..... Hugs all round little My xxx

    Good morning LM and the gang,

    Sorry couldn't pop in yesterday busy, busy, but was thinking of you LM and what an amazing (not in a tilty way) superwoman you are. 

    COME ON LM'S BOWELS, GET RUMBLING AND MAKE A FART. 

    Here's a funny tale.  When I had my op, I was unfortunate to have that sleepy bowel thing when nothing is happening for days ugh.  And Dunc and my kids kept me laughing, 'cos they named it B.I.B.S. Bone Idle Bowel Syndrome.  Everytime they visited they asked if anything had moved and reported to the nurse, she's still got that BIBS.  Think they should make it an official medical term :)

    Huge gentle hugs but just enough to squeeze a good old riproarer out. xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    Morning LM,

    You really should stop eating the hospital furniture, mind you it might just do the trick! The two old dears sound like they are a couple of wind bags so I do not envy your mission of trying to make them laugh.

    I have been trying to think of things that make you fart but they all involve eating so that's no good.

    I could always send you a whoopee cushion and just try and fool SC better still use one of your old bags.

    Yuck to protein drinks, I bet they will make you fart.

    Good luck with the mission and I hope your not in too much pain!!!

    Booby xxxx

    Morning LM,

    Thought this might help you laugh one out...

    A guy goes to pick up his date for the evening. She's not ready yet, so he has to sit in the living room with her parents.

    He has a bad case of gas and really needs to releive some pressure.

    Luckly, the family dog jumps up on the couch next to him. He decides that he can let a little fart out and if anyone notices they will think that the dog did it.

    He farts, and the woman yells, "Spot, get down from there."

    The guy thinks, "Great, they think the dog did it." He releases another fart, and the woman again yells for the dog to get down.

    This goes on for a couple more farts. Finally the woman yells, "Dammit Spot, get down before he craps on you." :)

    Good to hear you in good humour,

    Jenx

    Thanks you lot! You make me smile but not my bum. I suspect he is sulking after being usurped by baggy for nearly a year... Or he's just so grumpy oh hang on how come my bum is a different gender to me??? Oh who cares. Anyway, may take is that something will have to give at some point! You can't keep shovelling in jam roly poly and unidentified foodstuffs and extra drinks and not have something come out the other end at some point! Unless I just spontaneously combust of course! Moaners made me laugh cos she asked me what consultant had said and I said he was interested to see what happens cos I might be incontinent which I don't want and she just said 'ah well worse things happen at sea' seems the sympathy is one way. Failed miserably to make theme ugh over lunch or just smile or be positive... This is a hard crowd to please!! She even told consultant that her cat had been run over ! He just looked at her a bit awkward and said that's the way it goes and off he went shouting at me if I had any news for him yet... As you may have guessed I AMA little bored. Off for a snooze before friend comes with a huge giant real cappuccino for me! Hoorah! Xxxxx oh and jan I might use that... BIBS HAHA XXX
