some graphical detail about my weekend to start off with )
Mum picked me up around 7 and we drove to the YARRA RANGES HOUSE in Lilydale.
Got slotted in, then a nurse came to do my paperwork and answer any last minute questions I had. She did ask me where Heartly was though; think she would have liked to meet her.
Had a chat to her, the doctor and the anesthetist before I got changed into the hospital gear.
Mum left, and I was taken into the room. I lay on the trolly that had a comfortable matress on it and was nervous as heck.
Anyway, they gave me the needle, then they asked if I could turn over which I did. he then said "i'll put the happy drugs into you now," and I replied nervously, "the anesthetic?" , "
"yes" he said, and that's all I knew until I woke up with the nurses talking to me. A kind nurse held my hand while I went out to it; I just looked and felt so nervous!
I felt very sleepy, but after a while I got dressed and sat back in a recliner chair and had some sanwiches which I told the nurse, I was so hanging out for!
I was given the report to take to my specialist next week. Everything seemed fine enough, though they never mentioned my hiatus nernia they discovered the other time.
Later on in the car, Mum read out to me that the bowel prep was really pleasing, so that was good; my effort certainly payed off.
Monday afo Nan left, and i slept for a while, then got up, had dinner and spoke to B. -- he was pretty supportive i must say!
Yesterday i stayed home from work, as required. Started eating normally again. Discovered I hurt my neck in my sleep the night before, and it's still heck painful.
RB came over yesterday for dinner, and that was so nice! We listened to the DVS of Pretty woman before tea.
He left about 9.30 and i then went to bed not long after.
Oh, i got a call from AA from guide dogs yesterday. Having my re-assessment next friday. I told him Heartly was still quite good and I wasn't sure what would be the best thing for her despite her age, but that she still seems to love working. He said that if I didn't want a gap between dogs, this would prob be the best thing to do because once they hit ten, especially eleven (as she will be in July), they may slow down quite quickly. It will be awful though to give her up as a working partner! I do think she'll benefit from a good long retirement though at my parents place.
that's about it. longest LJ entry from me in a while. Off to spellcheck some of those long words like .. um, no attempt writing them again!
til Next time, RdFreak
