A pot hole in the road to recovery

Less than one minute read time.

We spent a lovely few hours in our rented home - we even had dinner at the dining table (Andrew only having what is considered to be 'soft' food). We went to bed and before too long Andrew was up and about complaining of pains in his abdomen. He tried irrigation and pain killers but no improvement. By 6:30am he was totally exhausted and still in pain so I called the hospital and asked for the urologist. By chance one of his doctors answered and told me to get him to the clinic asap. After 3 irrigations there, and with Andrew still complaining of abdominal pain, he was re-admitted to St Mary's Hospital. They took blood tests and he's just gone off for an X-ray. Doctors think it's his bowel not properly waking up but we should get the results within the hour and know more. Looks like he will probably have to stay here for a couple of days until it's sorted - 2 more days of water only.
Boo hoo... back to Chief Carer's assistant!

    Hi T,

    That sound a bum. My thoughts are with Andrew. I did ok after my op but then got hit by a nasty UTI which was just not nice at all. But we get through these blips as I'm sure Andrew will.

    All the best to the both of you

    Andrew xx
