Just a quick update to let you know that I have now had my op and recuperating at home. I was kept in overnight which I'm glad about because the first night was quite scary being sick all the time and a few twitches on my stroke leg which had me panicking. I'm glad the surgeon made the decision to operate whilst still taking aspirin despite being black, purple, green and yellow all over my tummy! I've had my staples out this morning at my local hospital and had a lovely bath. Having a wash in the sink and washing hair etc was a pain for 10 days but all worth it in the end as I can now eat my favourite fruit and veg without any pain or grumbles from Gordon the gallbladder who is now in gallbladder heaven :( ! Rest his soul! I notice there are quite a few newcomers and once I have read through all the new posts, I'll catch up with everyone. We are having scorching weather in Yorkshire the same as everyone else so I'm making the most of relaxing in the garden. Brenda x
P.s. Mum-in-Law is improved but has been transferred from hospital to a respite centre attached to a care home with a view to assessing being taken into permanent care. She's accepted that she probably won't be going back home but not a good situation for her at the moment.
