The hospital rang on Monday afternoon, they had a cancellation. I had my pre-op today, and everything was fine, I have to be at the hospital by 6.45 Thursday morning, I have to ring before I leave the house to make sure there's still a bed for me. I should hopefully be home on Friday.
Speak to you all when I get home.

    Aw ND
    I am glad it will soon be over with for you, I do think I would prefer it this way rather than wait for months.
    I will be thinking about, and wishing you a good recovery x
    Love

    Wishing you all the very best, Numpty. I hope you've set your alarm clock. I'll be thinking of you.

    Good luck Numpty, I am sure that all will go well. My take on surgery is that it is designed to help and I hope this does. Please let us know when you are home if you can type but if not then please use Mr ND as your scribe. :wink: DD

    Surgery was on Thursday, all went well. Came home Friday afternoon. Of course still quite painful, but improving. Plaster cast feels very heavy, but I have a sling. I'm finding it difficult to type with my gammy left hand, of course I'm right handed and it's a right wrist fusion! So sorry this is short.
    Thank you all for your well wishes and pocket duties, they are much appreciated.
    I hope you are all as well as you can be.
