Finally Going In For My Operation After A 23 Month Wait!

[Neil1]

Originally it was booked for April 9th but was sent home after 3.5hrs due to no beds.

Then I had the date extended to Friday the 13th September except I had a belter of a cold and couldn't go in, so I was given a new date 8th October.

Unfortunately I received a phone call from Torbay Hospital Admissions on the 4th October saying that was no good so it was rebooked for the 11 October at 7.30am.

I will be leaving home via taxi at 6.30am.

Will be in for a few days no doubt, at least the food isn't bad but you don't get much sleep.

Then when they finally let me out depending on what type of surgery I have had will determine the length of time that I am not allowed to drive for.
Hopefully it will be keyhole surgery which is a much shorter recovery time, if it's major surgery then it's 3 months of no driving and 9 months recovery for me.
