I am home

I suppose the purpose of this blog is to chart my journey from the hospital to home and keep you all informed of my progress, so that we do not have to keep telling everyone, I especially feel that it has been my job to shield Mark and the girls, as this way you all hear it from the horses mouth, as if were. It is not easy when you are unwell to write this and I am so appreciative of all the kind words and messages from you all and I do hope that you understand why I do not always reply.

Mark has been working and visiting me, getting himself food and coping with the every day life at home that I usually deal with, he has had multiple offers of food and entertainment but finds it easier to just cope on his own with the girls. Isabelle and Tessa have been marvellous.

It is wonderful to be home again, and I think it will take me a long time to bounce back to my normality. However now this huge foreign body is out of me I will be able to get on with my life without pain, I expect a lot of my recent discomfort was down to this and it will be easier without it. All the drains and lines have been removed. On a regime of pills for a while.

As for visitors I think none until next week, so one step at a time, then please call.

I don’t expect to blog that much going forward.
