I'm Back!!

Ok, so I’m back to the blog so I can’t be doing too badly for myself. The last few days have been by far the hardest of my life. So much pain and distress, but I feel like I’ve picked up a bit now. Hopefully getting my tracheotomy out tomorrow which I can’t wait for, it’s absolutely awful!!

Operation was a total success, got the whole tumour out which turned out to not be quite as big as they first thought and according to those lucky enough to see my face right now they have done a very good job patching me up!!

The nurses on my ward are lovely, Helen is very nice to me and Eileen is a bit more of a fn of the tough love but I do need that sometimes too. I think I bring down the average age of patients around here to about 75 so you can imagine what its like, can’t wait to be recuperating at home. Sister is coming to see me this afternoon then probably be ready for visitors from tues or wed. It’s absolutely exhausting just having people here!!

Had a bit of a panic yesterday when I asked when the weird feeling plastic bandage would come off my face only to be told that that was actually my own skin!! Still not planning at actually looking in a mirror anytime soon!

Will write more later, for now this has totally used up my energy reserves!! Still remain pretty positive, things can only get better from here! Have a big afternoon ahead of me involving sitting up in a chair so i need to rest for that!!

Thanks so much for everyone’s support, i have some truly amazing friends and family!! Especially appreciate all the time and love from my parents and from Kev!! love to you all xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
