What a saga

As most know I was due to go home after a spell in rehab, nice bedsit so semi independent.

Well, I lasted about four days and back in hosp. My sats dropped so low both the physio and OT did not want to take responsibility, which I fully understood, sats were in the high sixties to low seventies.

Not a good scenario whichever way you look at it, still in hosp, sats still drop when moving about the place.

To add a little more interest I also had a slight stroke, which the hosp made too much of a fuss about and called my son in, wasn’t allowed to see me which I personally think made it more difficult for him.

If that wasn’t enough also have cellulitis in my good leg, and my heart is even more tired than I am!!

I was going to jump off the bridge but didn’t think I’d get my leg over 😀

The only good thing to come out of all this is my former partner, that’s the polite version, moved up this way recently it matters not what I think, so have encouraged son to talk to his dad if he feels he can’t talk to me.

Hoping to go home sooner rather than later

Another waffly post so thanks for reading

Love to all

Oh no judes, a bit of a setback there. I hope things can be sorted out for you so you can get home. Such a shame but keep going, you will be homeward bound soon, fingers crossed.

Sending lots of love and hugs your way. Here for you.

Lots of love, Carole xxx💜😻😻😻😻

Oh Judes, I'm so sorry to read all this. You must be so disheartened with so many more health issues to contend with and yet your sense of humour and comment about jumping off the bridge made me smile.I think that the hospital would be duty bound to inform your son about the slight stroke but, as you say, hard for him not being allowed to visit. I hope that if he makes contact with his dad that it helps him.

Thinking of you and sending love and hugs, Carole xxx

Judes for all you are going through your resolve and strength of character and above all your humour shine brightly and make you my 🎇star of the day. Hopefully some mild blood thinning medication after your ITA may also help your obviously warm and generous heart pump some more oxygen around your battered body and they can stabilise you for a return home to your son and the kitties that miss you so much.

Wishing you much better times.

😊😻x

Hope you do get home soon.Hospital is fine when you are not aware you are there, but home is always better and I think restful.

I am so sorry to know you’ve had more obstacles on your way to getting home. Being in the hospital sucks at the best of times, but it must be especially challenging now with limited (if any?) visits. Sending you lots of sheepy hugs 🐑 and every good wish that you’ll soon get home to your kitties. 🌈

It’s a good post judes. I’m sorry your back in hospital. I hope you’ll get back to the nice bed sit soon. I hope your son will talk to his father as that will reassure you a bit.

Never mind getting your leg over that bridge 😀🍀🦋🍇 . You had me laughing there. X

Well, Judes, other people have said most of what I would have written, so all I will add is that I hope you have some good looking young doctors to break the monotony of being in there again!!! (There has to be a silver lining somewhere! Lol! 👨‍⚕️👨‍⚕️) xx Moy
