Mum to Daughter -- on visualizing image of our pair of elderly dogs lying on damp grass yawning in sync at the crack of dawn whilst she set off on her jog--" you have just broken my dream"
"I was running accross a wet field begging the return of my mobile phone from my grand daughter (musically mad- my phone better camera) needing the police urgently. A black and white cow had crept behind my back and set off at a trot down a railway tunnel."
Wow," responded daughter, " you are not normally over anxious about appointments and you HAVE done this before."
"What???"
"It's only Cow in Tunnel syndrome, and Madame P is very good."
So began my day.
I was stunned, the orthopaedic hand surgeon knew all about PMR (or PPR as it is here) Strangely found myself discussing it in French whilst she replied in fluent English. She didn't bat an eyelid at my reluctance to have same anaesthetist as last time, sent secretary to find me the dishiest gentlest one --22 to choose from !! Meeting him next friday.
Surgery Monday 19th Feb to be there at 7am. Should be out and on my way for lunch by 10 30.
It will be great when the tingling are gone and I stop dropping things.
