surgery

Still in denial, I am booked in for a hookwire and day surgery mid Dec12.  Recovering from surgery was not how I was intending on spending Christmas.  Day surgery turned into a four day stint in hospital with a drain on the left and a drip for dehydration on the right, and being jabbed in the rump with all manner of whatever so I would stop vomiting.  No doubt about it all the staff at the hospital I came into contact with were caring professionals but I still thought they must have it all wrong, however, now I did feel sick and started to feel sorry for myself.  The 420km drive home was tiring and it was days before I came out of the brain fog and on top of the pain and self pity.  I am very luck to have such a wonderful supportive immediate family but I didn't want to face the world.
