Sorry For The Delay..

Well, what a to do! 24 hrs after my last post I was rushed into hospital in the early hours. A stay of over a week revealed, a stomach ulcer, Gall stones and a mild heart attack.

Nice.

In the course of the week one gallstone decided it was going to block my Liver duct and stop the Liver working. So, jaundice and much pain later the stone was removed by Endoscopy. I have to return in 6 weeks to have the Gall Bladder removed when I hope that everything will return to normal (well, normal for me) In the meantime I have a restricted diet because if I eat too much my life is not worth living and I must rest. Not easy. However, I am doing as I am told (for once) because I never ever want to experience pain like I have had or am currently having. Who knew Gall Bladders could be so annoying.

Jase did really well holding the fort here with Eddie. It's safe to say the cats missed their Mummy and we have a new addition. Willow the hamster is here. I caved...I am weak... My son, tear stained cheeks, the big eyes, I had NO chance! She is very sweet though, white with beady black eyes!

Well, that's my update for now, back to bed for a rest!
