Saw my consultant today for the first time in a while, around eleven months down the line after initial surgery. He had a prod round with his camera (as they do) and then said that given my history of radiotherapy, the complications post-op and then the trauma of the infection/bleed, that the level of healing was "miraculous." I did point out to him that it wasn't actually a miracle and that it was down to the work done by him and his team but it was a lovely thing to hear all the same. I'm officially a miracle
Well done keep improving, you've done the hard work too pat on the back
