Saturday 26/03/2011

Yesterday was the day i went to hospital for my bi-opsy. Firstly i had to travel to Halifax, which is about 10 miles away. I get there for 7.15, to find out that I'm due in theatre at 8.30 am. This was good news due to the fact i don't like hospitals, so i sit and wait, and wait and wait. By 10.30 I've spoken several swear words in Shelley's direction and wound myself up nice and tight. I went to find a nurse and ask whats going on (not very politely), she wanders off and comes back to tell me that they have put 2 others in front of me !
Midday comes, and by now I'm in a foul mood. Then i get called, and off i go. Get on the table shaking uncontrollably, the sleep dude is asking me what i do, and the next thing is its 13.15 and I'm waking up, being wheeled to the ward.
After 30 mins i come round properly, and chat to the other to lads that are in the ward. I go to the loo, look in the mirror to see a 5 inch slit in the side of my neck held together with staples and some sort of bar. I was never the best looking guy, but FFS it makes me look like a Texas chainsaw massacre reject. Also i have a hole on my right hip, where the bone marrow was taken from.
At 14.15 Shell and the Whirlwind come to visit along with her sister-in-law and her mate. We chat and get told that im allowed home at 18.00, so the girls go and i try and get comfy.
Its home time, im dressed and waiting and stagger out of the hospital, get in a car and go home.
We order takeaway, and i try and catch up on Twitter but give it up as a loss and head to bed at 9pm with the pills working i get in to bed. The only problem is, i have this thing on the left hand side of my neck, and the hole on my hip is on the right side, so trying to get comfy is a friggin nightmare. Ive managed to get some sleep, but now cant get settled anywhere i sit !
Its been a strange Friday and now i have to just wait till Tuesday for the specialist and my results, and to find out what treatment i will need.
Thanks for reading
