I came home, did nothing the first night except heat up some frozen meals that I'd cooked before hospital. My 20yo is just hopeless, he won't come out of his room and away from his computer games to help so of course I just did everything. Then my arm started to swell so I had to stop and sit down. I've been a sole parent for 20 years minus 12 weeks so no hubby to worry about but also no one to talk to. At least my mum is doing my washing and ironing, I'm watering the gardens and doing all the cooking except for breakfast. Today I was roundly told off for overdoing things by the doctor and breast care nurse and told that if I keep doing so much I will get fluid that will have to be drained off. OK, point taken. I'm going to work tomorrow for 3-4 hours, then shopping. For me that is a very slow day.
