Posted on 20/02/2019 21:26 by nelliethehookerB2, Good to hear that OH has managed to get out of bed, be it only for a short while.
Can you not get a weekly car pass at the hospital? They do one at ours and it's less than they charge for 3 days separately.

B2 i was not expecting stents to be required when i had my angiogram, so your OH not having to have any bypasses is a better outcome for you i am sure, and it will be just time before he is home best wishes
OH did have triple bypass but they didn't put him on the bypass machine as sadly they didn't consider his own plumbing up to it, hence keeping his heart beating for itself for the op.
I'm so happy and glad to read that you appear to have recovered well and are back to 'normal' so quickly. Don't overdo it though.

Posted on 20/02/2019 21:10 by ABMSitting here with sore fingers from scratching my head !!
Got a Letter from surgery today telling me to make appointment to hear the ( dodgy ) result of recent thyroid bloods, and probably get an increased / altered medication.
Would not have been concerned too much, but lower down the page was a request to TEXT IN my Name, D -O -B, & Latest mobile phone number. Dammit they addressed the letter to me, they send reminders to me by text & they accept Medication Requests by e-mail from me every month. Now I'm wondering if the Doc's have organised a contract for technical electronic works update with some ex-C&MC IT chappies
It does upset me, having to type all this with sore splintered fingers !

B2, you've both been through quite a trauma but at least the procedures that took place have been explained and it sounds as though you are starting to see some progress. There's plenty of time now for a good recovery and I hope a corner has been turned in the right direction. Sounds like a good idea to get you lunch at the hospital, keep your strength up! Best wishes from me. x

Bakers2. So sorry to hear that your OH has had a stroke. However it sounds as though he is making good progress even though it seems slow. Hopefully his physical strength and stubbornness will stand him in good stead. You sound as though you have a good routine for yourself. Such a good idea to have your lunch at the hospital. You need to keep your strength up. You will be glad to have the company of your son and dog over the weekend. Take care of yourself. Best wishes to you both x
ABM I agree with others that you should be careful about giving your details. Perhaps have a word when you next visit the surgery to make sure it is genuine. However it does annoy me when companies etc ring or contact you and then ask you to confirm all your details - after all they contacted me not the other way round
JVB, pleased to hear that you got a good result about your car in the end. Don't wear yourself out though.
OP you sound as though you had a wonderful time with the grandchildren. I think we all had a huge amount of energy at that age! Enjoy your few days away.
We are having a busy time with the family but we have a morning off today as the grandchildren have had a 'sleepover' (how much sleeping was done I wonder) at our daughter's with their cousins. It will be all systems go again later this morning.

Oh b*99er. Son and I treated ourselves to a slow start to the day. He pulled back his curtains, piece of tile come off the house roof, missed the snow guard, and has made a hole in a polycarbon roof piece on the conservatory. I really think the devil is taking a great interest in me at the moment 😤
Son taking care of temporary cover, thank goodness he takes after his dad, who's a bit like KjNelln 😂😂
Edit son has pre wedding photos this weekend, he's gonna look tired regardless!
