Dear Margaret

Wishing you all for the very best for tomorrow. Hope all goes well and your recovery is smooth and speedy. You must be anxious but no doubt it will all be worth it . It will soon all be over and you will be back on the journey to better health.

Good luck and lots of love

We are all sending you our good wishes and positive thoughts for tomorrow. The last few weeks have not been easy for you. Stress is not easy to manage, some people find breathing exercises or a relaxation CD useful.

Glad you are at least first on the list. Hope you have some rest tonight, do something nice to distract yourself if you can.

best wishes

Lorraine & the team

Best wishes Margaret, it will be fine.

You're lucky to be able to go in early morning, I had to go in the night before which meant that I didn't get any sleep at all through the night - what with worrying and being in hospital at the same time I wasn't able to drop off even for an hour or so.

It will be sorted for you and you'll be back home in no time I'm sure.

Thanking all of you for the good wishes, I am lucky to be first on the list, I agree excavator there is nothing worse then waiting to go down and worse if you go in the day before, I will let you know how things go.

All the best
