Hi All
Tomorrow is my d-day at wrightington to see if they will offer me surgery for my bad knee.....I kinda wish it wasnt tomorrow, wish this ice n horrid weather wasnt here....(can you believe my rubber mats in car in footwell even had ice in the pattern in them today?).....
Havent had a good day what with a blind falling nearly on me in bathroom and me being me hardly able to put the bloody thing back up but i caught it and stopped it cracking any bathroom furniture!!! My auto immune is flared like mad, had itches right from waking up and at one point the rash was moving quicker than i could get the aqueaous cream to it.......
Trying to think of all the stuff i need - a pound for parking, flask of soemthing hot, a little something to eat, a shovel if car park is bad, phone well charged.....All this and Sol is looking rather worse for wear too, he needs a bath and i havent done it, he's more grey than orange at moment....
Me no like.....:-(

Hi Elaine
you and sol will be fine
Nothing will happen without your agreement and remember too that no matter what may be suggested you can ask for time to consider the pros and cons and get back to him. :idea:
I'll be in your pocket too with the peppermint crams and dairy fudge.....and a mini hot water bottle and fleecy blanket for Sol.x
sending you more calming vibes.

Im gonna need the calming vibes if the car park is like a skating rink, surely that's stupidness gone mad or do they want more voluntary patients?

HI Elaine,
no wonder you are nervous .... I think it would be strange if you were not considering what you have to face just to get there in this weather!
I'll happily be in your pocket, as long as littlelegs can come too, as she is getting almost as fed up with the snow as I am, and would welcome the distraction! She promises to be on her best behaviour :shock: and will happily clean up any crumbs your guests leave behind in your pockets
write everything down and if you don't understand anything don't leave until you do!

Hi Elaine,
Also signing up for pocket duties and if they don;t agree to the tkr ask them why not and stick to your guns over quality of life v/s age..... might help?
Hope the car park will be ok but if not just take it real slow and you will be fine... can't believe you only pay a quid :shock: either. Fingers crossed and I shall bring pasties and saffron and cream.... will try not to be sick Cris x0 -
Elaine
I am with you today...I hope they have gritted the car park we did tell them about it...I will bring a bag of grit me...would you like some brandy in your hot drink..
Good Luck with it...I know how much this means to you.
Love
