July 31- Day 21

Posted on July 31, 2014 by Deborah

This is what three weeks in hospital can do for you.

I certainly look a bit thinner. Dare I say it, but maybe just maybe I am a little brighter this morning. Not that the night was without its drama’s but I really don’t want to put you off your cornflakes.

Today Colin gets to escape this prison cell and our good friend Sue gets to take on the role as nurse maid. Hopefully I will just suffer from extreme exhaustion today. This morning my temperature is for the first time in weeks, 36 something. Let’s hope is stays that way, if I am to stand any chance of seeing our home again.

Please let my corner be well and truly turned!

Thanks for hanging in there with me and for all your lovely comments, they really do make a difference.

Love to you all

Deborah xxxx

Oh Deb, relief relief, yesterday I was really worried, the tunnel just seemed sooo long. But now I feel that with your temp down things will start moving along and the light appearing. Phew. Looking forward to seeing that smile once more, but hallelujah you’re on the road again. Start planning that trip! Love and all those hugs again, Nicola
