After the surprise call at 6pm Saturday evening, we have moved a long a bit since then. The op went ahead on Sunday morning at 8.30am and I was all ready and prepped to go in theatre by 8am. Afte a 5 hour operation i was sent to the DCCM recovery unit to ....recover. I was whisked away to intensive care by tea time and all the signs were looking good. The first day went ok with plenty of doctors surgeons and nurses having a quick peek, and I felt more publicissed that the recent wedding by Wills and Kate. All my carers have been fantastic and both in the Intensive Care ward and in the transplant ward 71,and they are pleased and impressed with my progress to date. Enormoud hugs to Glenn and the pets who have all done their bit. Bluebell has maintained a stance at the top of the stairs waiting for me to return, whilst Biggles is searching for me. The fickle cats are less stressed as they have been fed. Thanks to friends and family for the mrssages of support and isnt facebbok great! Hope to be home next tuesday for 2 months of rest and recouperation, and some major lifestyle changes?Cant wait gonna be good, so thank you to the family of the donor who at what is a hard time for them, allowed all of us hopefully to benefit. Go and grab your donor sign up cards NOW!
