DONE AND DUSTED


Well I'm out.  Went in Thursday night in the end as the hospital changed there minds and had the op Friday morning.  It went well, 4 hours but 3 spent in recovery so I never came out till 6pm.  Manu and the Boys were waiting for me in my ward.  I had a private ward with a great view of the mountains so that makes it easier.  Anyway, 40 cm of colon gone - very very sick colon - to quote my surgeon and a few holes and about 18 staples and we are good to go.  I came home yesterday and have a private nurse visiting.  I no longer have diverticular disease and so can look forward to normal living.  I am already eating veggies again and a little fruit.  Although in hectic pain its great being home with the boys and a big thank you to all for your positive thoughts and energy.  Heather I received your wonderful magazines in the post today and have lounged in bed all day reading them what a treat.  So a big thank you to all my lovely friends and family.
