Is this really happening?

[luckyknickers57 62]

So, I made another phone call, 'Oh, just checking, I had a missed call today, could that have been you?'

Well, of course I knew the answer was no, because I made it up......

But whilst she was on the phone, she would like to offer me a provisional date, WHAT!!!!!!!!

'Oh, yes?', Mrs Cool answers, 13th May any good? it's NOT but got to move heaven and earth and my mind goes blank, smiling sweetly, dunno why. Got to have bloods and an ECG done, much chatting later, hang up.

Then it hits me, I've got an appointment this Friday with the anaesthetist , So, back on the phone I go, answer phone again.

Then the second call comes through yes, we can get it all done on the same day. Oh, then she says, it all depends on the anaesthetist if you can proceed....

You have to let us know what happens Friday. Will keep my fingers crossed they either stick to the may date or get you in even sooner

Good luck hun, thinking of you today

[luckyknickers57 62]

Oh noooooo got there ok, in good time. Ohhhhh, Willow, guess what..... The anaesthetist is on holiday, and all others were in theatre, or meetings. However, the one good thing was that I got my ECG and bloods done before the appointment with the anaesthetist.

Can't tell you how emotional I feel. BP was up, but not surprising hey?

[willow13 59]

No wonder your bp was up I am surprised it wasn't through the roof. So when will you see the anaesthetist now? I can't believe they made you an appointment for him when he was on holiday.

I hope the don't decide to give you the camera, that it horrid and was the worse thing I had to go through.

Really don't know about the next appointment. Spoke to secretary when I got home. She said she will be speaking to the consultant on Monday. I suppose I shall here after that. The good news was when I got home the post had been and I had 'the letter' offering me my date, NOT mentioning conditional, so, that sounded better to me. So wound up that I phoned up to see of any last minute cancelations for aqua aerobics. And yes, there was one place, so off I went, and took it out on the Water. What a good workout!!!!!!!

[willow13 59]

That's great news about the letter and the official date. So pleased for you, its full steam ahead now. May isn't all that far away.
Well done on the Water aerobics too, sounds like your going to be fighting fit for the op.

Oh, thanks Willow, you're right it's not so very far away. I know I'm probably being unrealistic. And I'm probably coming across as though I'm ungrateful, but I'm not. Were self employed and run a B&B. We do school parties and have upto fifty children and their teachers come on a Monday and leave on a Friday. They have cooked breakfasts, packed lunches three course evening meals, then hot chocolate and biscuits at bed time. There is just the two of us, and it's full on from six in the morning until about midnight, and as you can imagine it's heavy work. I don't expect sympathy, it's the lifestyle we chose, but I just was wishing for an earlier date, before the schools arrived so I could recover and be fighting fit. Hey ho. Guess that's not happening. My eldest granddaughter is willing to come and help her grandad with the washing up and cleaning the floors. So that's really good. Every help counts. ????
