I’m now holed up in a hotel, ready for an early ‘check-in’ at the hospital at 7am tomorrow. I believe I’m first on the list tomorrow, so fingers crossed I’ll be done by lunch, I may not be up for eating much lunch though!!
For those who may be interested my procedure is as follows (don’t worry I’m not going into detail, but feel free to google it up though!!)
Left tonsillectomy, right oropharyngectomy and right neck dissection.
I’ve been reliably informed it will be painful afterwards but nothing comes for free!! Just wanting to get on with things now.
Had a lovely meal with my wonderful wife this evening and the alarm is set.
I’m now nil by mouth, so time for lights out and hope for a good night’s sleep.
