The Homecoming

Hi Daloni

Great news, you're getting home. I hope you stay much longer than you did the last time. Maybe we should start a campaign, one similar to our friend Kt at home only this one called KD at home. KEEP DALONI AT HOME

Hope you have a super meal tonight Daloni. 

Keep well and stay safe

Ha ! I had to read this twice tvman, I was thinking what campaign, then I realised you meant me talking about my choice of name. You know the difference was I didn’t want to be at home. I’m hoping like you that Daloni has made it home, been welcomed by noodle the puppy and her daughters (not necessarily in that order) , and that lots of Daloni’s favourite foods are waiting there for her. 

  you relax for a bit if you can and soak in all the positiveness of being at home. I hope you’re able to do a bit of mindfulness with your favourite things around you, as it’s the next best thing to sleep I hear, and if you’re lucky you will drift off, showing those steroids who’s boss. Regaining strength to see the next plan through. 

Hi 

I am still waiting.  I’ve seen the pharmacist so that’s one step forward. I’ve arranged a call tomorrow with my GP. And I’ve not had any breakthrough pain since 8am. It’s now 3.30pm. Hurray! Although I can start to feel it...give it half ah hour. 

My oncologist hasn’t called either. I expect she’s busy. She starts a new job at Guys Hospital on May 1 so I imagine she’s run off her feet one way or another 

Hi 

I promised myself I’d be patient. But around 5 pm it was starting to wear thin. I felt very sorry for the poor staff nurse who had to tell me, at 5:30 pm, that if we weren’t through by 6 pm I’ll be staying overnight.

So imagine my joy when, at 5:45, I saw sister waving a plastic bag of tablets through my window. Pharmacy had come through with the controlled drugs and I could go! I even managed to sneak in a last slice of NHS meat pie with mash and gravy. I’m now just waiting for my daughter to arrive so that I can finally get home, get into my own bed and have a peaceful night sleep.

Hi KT

I was making a point about the name I had given Daloni rhymed nicely with hours, it just jumped out at me. Thanks for taking it in good humour KT. Unfortunately Daloni is still in hospital at time of writing.

Take care and keep safe KT

No, she's on her way home now.

Hi Daloni, I hope you had a good trip home and there was chocolate waiting for you when you arrived. Sleep well tonight; nothing beats a night in your own bed.

All the best. ... Michele xx

Hi  I hope your in bed by now and have had lots of hugs! That's the best medicine you can get! Take Care 

Hi 

yes I am in my own bed. My little one changed my bedding so I have that lovely new bedding feel and smell. My sister made pork schnitzels with mash potato and broccoli.

I am struggling to feel normal because I don’t feel at all normal. I feel I’ve gone into a very strange place, physically and mentally. I need to find a way back into the same room as everyone else in the house, as it were.  I think I need to stop thinking. That would help immensely. 

Very glad you're home and in bed, and I'm hoping the steroid faerie stays away from the sleep button tonight! 

Random question, any mashed potato left?
