Dad still in hospital having fallen at home due to weakness arising from infection. Doc can't pinpoint where infection coming from (chest xray clear, urine clear, blood tests not pinpointing). Temperature still going up and down. So now going to "map" heart to see if infection coming from pacemaker/wire (which he' had 10 years). Still on sutent (first cycle 50mg for his kidney cancer with additional tumours on lungs & one on brain). Going to be assessed by occupational therapists to see what little...
Helloooooooooo!
I am sat in the staffroom with my laptop and pretending to look busy and studious. Guess I did well managing 3 days without you all....
This is going to have to be short cos I am at work and can't type for long (hoorah you lot say)
What bugs me is I can't see what you lot have been up to or say hi to most of you without going through some long rigmarole of looking up each of you individually. Ho hum.
So, the big move.....
Actaully for Little My and her chaotic life...
Had my pre op today before the removal of fibroid next Monday.
Everyone was very nice, especially when I said 'By the way any news on my biopsy?'
Well good news is the biopsy of womb lining is clear - sigh of relief.
Not so good news is that I have to have fibroid and anything else that is removed next week sent for tests so i am not 100% in the clear yet.
BUT having checked on what they are doing sending stuff to pathology is normal from this kind of procedure.
The sister said 'Who...
I really want to pour my heart out on this one as i have had an awful couple of days but at the same time i know that is not fair on anyone who wants to look at this i just feel i need to write it down as it might make more sense.
All i can say is that last night i feel like i had an emotional melt down and i am not really sure where it came from but i know one thing i never want to be like that again. My poor hubbie wasat the receiving end of it and he had done nothing wrong. It has been a few...
Paul visited Mo today later than expected 3.45 he turned up,luckily I didn't have anything that needed to be done ,considering. The general idea was,I thought,for Paul to come up at the weekend to see his mum,obviously,and allow me time to pop out & do 'things'while he was here. Ewa wasn't starting work until 3pm so I guess he just wanted to spend some time with her,I didn't have a problem with that all.However,it transpired later Paul was trying to install a new printer at the hotel Ewa manages...
Charlotte,Mo's carer came in today I was expecting her at 1pm she turned up at 1.30. Unfortunately I had rang the A1 Carers office to find out where she was because I thought she was late, just got off the the phone & she turned up. Apparently according to Charlottes visiting list Mo was booked in for a visit at 1.30pm and not 1pm as I thought. I apologised to her for possibly dropping her in it because I had rang the office. Anyway I just let Charlotte get on with what she was here for. I did ask...
Morning!
Well, yesterday all I did was drive to drop off my middle free-range-teen at the train station, and then pick her up again later. My youngest was picked up for ballet and taken to the milkshake bar thingy then back to her friend's, and my eldest was at her b/f's, so I practised what I have been preaching, and SAT ON THE SOFA ALL DAY *looks proud*
I watched Discovery channel - Animal Cops rescue and Monkey Life Sanctuary LOL! and bid for some shoes on ebay. Bliss ;) I only got twitchy...
