Julie47's pre-op

Julie47 is going into hospital tomorrow for her second pre-op for this neck operation that she is so, so dreading. Just like the first one she has no actual idea when the op itself will occur and, to be honest, she is feeling very fed up about the whole rigmarole. I don't blame her. So, to help matters along, I have asked Mr DD to put my rotary washing line back up in the garden so that I can prance around it doing the 'Get your blasted finger out' dance. I will endeavour to keep up the maneouvres for at least five minutes, then a nice sit down may be required, then a little more dancing will ensue.
Julie? The very best of luck for tomorrow, I shall be in your pocket, with various goodies, I promise. DD

Thank you DD for looking out for Julie.
I shall have plenty of time to think about you today, Julie, going through the pre op assessment.... yet a-g-a-i-n. :roll: Bless you. Best get on with it though because they are for our own good. :roll:
If possible, whilst you are there, try to nag someone about your forthcoming operation as well. It is a vicious circle, we want the op but we don't want the op, that is how I felt about this one, we are "sharing" together. Liz (mermaid) is our role model as she has had two ops on her neck vertebrae.
Deep breaths, stay calm as much as possible, dear Julie,
Love

Thankyou poppy tracy elna and barbara for your good wishes.
It is a 10am appointment tomorrow , I will let you all know how it went, Just hope I am not there 5 hours again. :roll:
And Elna, yes I will ask if they can give me any Idea as to when I could expect a date and point out that this is the second pre op. (although surely they will have the same forms they filled in last time and just ask "any changes")
Anyway, we will see.
Take care everyone.

Hello Julie
Just to say hope it goes OK for you tomorrow and you get the opportunity to ask some questions.
Looking forward to hearing how younger on.

my dear friend Julie.... Myself, Ra and even Janet will be there tomorrow. Now Janet very rarely joins pocket duties as she has an irrational fear of pocket fluff. I've promised to fems off any such detritous though. And as it's you
Ra has booked the day off from fighting crime just in case but hopefully you won't be there too long and we can all go grab a cuppa...
The very best of luck hun and I hope they give you some indication of when the main event will be. I'm guessing they are planning on within the next two weeks?
You know we will all be there then as wellMe-Tony

Hi Julie hope all goes well for your pre op, DD does the rotary dance work better with clothes on the line? and clockwise or anti, so important we get it right ((((Julie))) Linda0

HI Julie
(and thanks DD for the thread and for the vision of you and the rotary line :eek: )
will be with you in your pockets, along with littlelegs, who promises to be good if you let her into the pocket with the food rather than the cats

Julie? (((()))) and love.
Right, rotary line etiquette. For the 'Pull Your Finger Out' dance the line is closed and covered with a plain cover. For the 'Woo-Hoo!' dance (any occasion) line closed but with flowery pretty cover. For the rain dance, line open and festooned with dry washing. Due to limited mobility the elements of the dances are essentially the same.Have you got the despatches? No, I always walk like this. Eddie Braben0 -
Julie My Lovely
I am right here for you. Jumping in teeth ready and sharpened to bite anyone who upsets you/doesn't tell you what you want to hear .
Love and hugs

Fluffy hugs for you, our extra special, one in a million, pink flamingo. I do hope that your are seen at the time of your appointment, which is 45 minutes time. Waiting does no good for the BP at all.
