UPDATE - So, just as I was about to go and pack my stuff for the next few days at / in hospital I get a call to say there had been a cock up with my Covid test and the sample had been rejected. Upshot is no Covid test, no surgery! So back to square one. Needless to say hubby found me in a sobbing heap, just been such an emotional turmoil. Now looks as though it might be November before I get another date so am feeling pretty devastated...........

Well that was a bit of a turn around. Got a call yesterday afternoon to say it’s all back on again!! Don’t really know which way is up at the moment but very relieved.

Just been for my Covid test and am now isolating with hubby until I go in for MOHS on Tuesday and just keeping everything crossed now!!

So feeling very down this morning. Due in hospital on Tuesday 13th for MOHs to remove BCC from my nose followed by forehead flap reconstruction on 14th.

Yesterday afternoon got a phone call from Plastics to say my reconstruction op has had to be postponed because of a more ‘urgent’ case. Which I totally get but god, it felt like someone had kicked me in the guts.

my surgeon was in theatre all afternoon so hopefully I might get an update today but not holding my breath.

So this morning I’ve woken up in a really pessimistic mood, which is so not me!

Covid is going mad again so that’s playing on my mind about how long it will be before they stop admissions again.

So all in all a bit of a gloomy do for me at the moment.

  • HI mcc65. I’m very sorry to hear this - very stressful indeed.

    Would you be able to do a last moment cancellation if one comes up? If so it may be worth asking them to keep you in mind.

    I hope you get a new date very soon. You’re certainly right that the COVID thing isn’t helping Disappointed
