In for my rigid cysto today, feeling a bit scared. I thought I’d got over this, but last time they changed my hospital as my local one no longer does these procedures. Just as I was getting comfortable with all of this eh. Feeling particularly sad because my mom recently died too, first op without a mom :’’-(
Hope y’all as well as can be expected under the circs.
Love you all, & thanks for your support xxx
Hi Blanket,
Thanks for your kind words yesterday, it made me smile imagining myself singing, I think the nurses would run a mile if they heard my voice!
Youre right you do feel great after the procedure so I’m focusing on that and the toast you get afterwards- why does it always taste so much better in hospital?
i hadn’t realised you were having your procedure today, all the very best, it doesn’t get any easier.
So sorry about your Mum, I’m sure she’ll be watching over you.
Let us know how you get on and I’ll do the same tomorrow.
Luce xx
Aww Blanket I’m so sorry about your mum but she will defo be there with you, I hope everything goes well. I’m sure you’ll be ok no matter what hospital you’re in. Good luck to you xx
Aaaw thanks all for your support, it means so much x
All went well, another recurrence of 6 tiny tumours. I had my Consultant Uro Surgeon back, it’s good to have a regular eh. Not that I mind being practiced on, but sometimes I feel in their efforts to prove themselves they tend to dig a bit deep & my poor bladder suffers for it . I’m not sure if it was my complaint last time or the fact that the auditors were at the hospital, but the staff this time were lovely. The university student who looked after me gave me the buzzer & said if I wanted to talk or was worried she was there, bless her. I was like a raving lunatic yesterday, today I’m all cotton wool & dozy.
They no longer give me time to sing as they put me out rapidly, my voice is that bad too Luce. Hope all went well for you, & you enjoyed the toast!
Wishing you all the very best of everything xxx
