Suitcase packed,already for 10 hour op tomorrow on my birthday,a week in ICU as have a chronic lung conditon.
They expect I will be in for a couple of weeks but be longer as have low immune system and heal very slow due to my health problems.
Going to miss hubby, daughter who is 16,and my constant companion our cat.
Good luck Mandy. Everybody here is rooting for you.

Best to you Mandy - my surgery tomorrow for pleomorphic adenoma removal along with submandibular gland / my birthday is next day. Although yours sounds more intensive than mine it’s something that must be done. Major or minor we have to endure. I will miss my Maine Coon cat for the night I’m in and I’m sure she will doubly miss me.
Best of luck Chiswick. Like you say, has to be done. How long are you in hospital for?
