Matt went into hospital this morning for an op that was postponed from June. He's home now feeling very sore and sorry for himself. It's not that long ago that this op would have necessitated a few nights in hospital. The aftercare instructions make fun reading - I doubt if either of us will get much sleep tonight thinking of all the possible side effects! The poor boy keeps saying "I'm sorry" everytime he needs something.
On the plus side whilst hunting for clean sheets to put on the bed (well the district nurse is coming tomorrow so the bedding needs to match at least) I found the missing sleeve - it might have lain in the ironing basket undiscovered for years!
Posted by Yvonne at January 18, 2007 08:51 PMSo glad you found the sleeve. Absolutely knew that Matt would be fine (you must both be glad that finally he's had the op) - but I was so worried about that sleeve. I know you lose things and they don't materealise for months and months ggg....
Posted by: Sue at January 19, 2007 08:31 PMHope Matt is feeling a bit better by now! Jan, a day or so late as usual....
Posted by: Wibbo at January 19, 2007 06:41 PMAll best wishes to Matt - hope he doesn't feel too uncomfortable. Matching bed-linen eh? An ironing basket? this paints a wholenew picture.....

hope Matt is feeling better soon.
Posted by: minnie at January 19, 2007 03:18 PMHope he feels better soon.
Well done re finding the sleeve. Our ironing pile is a black hole as well - I never go near it!
Posted by: blueadt at January 19, 2007 12:49 PMI hope Matt gets better quickly, with you to look after him that's guaranteed.
I'm more than impressed, not only do you have matching bedding but if you were searching for it in the ironing pile then you iron it too! My ironing basket is a bit of a black hole too.
Posted by: Louise at January 19, 2007 10:53 AMHope Matt is feeling better soon, your ironing basket sounds a bit like mine!!
Posted by: yvette at January 19, 2007 09:58 AMYvonne, I am currently undergoing the same situation - minor-ish operation but one could be forgive for thinking the world would stop spinning if he just gave the word!! I went to work today - he had survived and was sitting waiting for his dinner when I came home! Aren't you lucky - someone to come and visit to make sure everything is OK.
Posted by: Lesley at January 19, 2007 09:49 AMmatching bedding I'm impressed !!!
Hope he is a good patient and gets better soon...
And as for finding sleeves in ironing piles I dont think I'll go there...
Posted by: Sue at January 19, 2007 09:00 AMI wonder how it got into the ironing basket in the first place. I hope Matt starts feeling better soon. Before you know it he'll be up and about and you'll both be very pleased that he's had his op.
Posted by: dawn at January 19, 2007 08:49 AMI hope he's well soon!
Posted by: Secret Pal (9) at January 18, 2007 11:41 PMTell him to get well soon. I don't think district nurses are that scarey.Well done on the sleeve front.
