I have had a message from Daylily and it is not wonderful news. Once they were in they found that her femoral head was not good so they have done a bone graft. She is facing six weeks of not walking on it and is trying to arrange a full care package for both her and Mr DL. She is on liquid morphine and I don't know when she will be leaving hospital. I told her I would let you all know and I am sure many of you will be sending hugs etc - our friend needs them so let me lead the way: ((((((())))))) to you Daylily, and a smidge of love. Chin up my girl, I am sure it will all come right in the end. DD

    Definitely not what Daylily wanted to hear. I do hope some decent care can be arranged for both of them. It is possible that a spell of enforced rest & care would be not a bad thing for her. Bone grafts do tend to require a bit more TLC but I’ve had no problems with mine. I am thinking of you very much, Daylily. Try not to worry.
    If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.

    I received another text a few minutes ago - apparently she might be coming out tomorrow. I reassured her that she was being thought about. DD

    Dear DD

    Thank you so much for letting us know. I am so sorry that it was not a straightforward operation for Daylily and I do hope that a suitable care package can be arranged for them both. From your latest message they are not keeping her in for too long but I am sure she would not be discharged before help was organised for them both once she is home.

    Please do send her my love and hugs

    The happiest people don't have the best of everything. They just make the best of everything.

    If you can lay down at night knowing in your heart that you made someone's day just a little bit better, you know you had a good day.

    I have had another message, she thinks she is ready to come out as long as they give her lots of dullers - she says they can't do anything else for her but whether that is for the present or for all-time I don't know. Poor daylily, this was supposed to help and improve matters. Life, eh? :roll: DD
