I'm back
Posted: Tue Aug 25, 2009 9:39 pm
I’d like to say a huge thank you to everyone who expressed their kind wishes and support earlier this year during my ‘down time’.
My rehabilitation has been going to plan and my post operation prognosis has proved to be pretty much spot on as the medics predicted as I’m now feeling quite spritely. My wife has been through so much, not just with this episode, but over many years, and words never seem to be enough, but every test life has thrown at her she passes with flying colours and never ceases to come up smiling, I guess some of us are just plain lucky to be gifted with life long partners like her.
I must admit that I was much the cause of problems which shortly after the operation put me on the brink of no return. I was instructed to cease taking my meds ( estrogen especially) 4/5 weeks before the initial operation and for some stupid reason I didn’t, for which I have no valid excuse. I was well aware of the dangers estrogen present to the blood clotting system, but there you go, it was never going to happen to me was it, but……..
It’s nice to be back in the real world again and thanks again to everyone who expressed their support and kind thoughts, this is truly a nice place to have and be part of.
I’d just like to add that if over the last two years I said anything which offended anyone in the least, then please accept my sincerest apology. I’ve had friends who lately have told me that from early 2007 leading up to the diagnosis of my tumor that I sometimes wasn’t my usual patient self and became quite snappy at times, and I can only put that down to pro-longed headaches over a long time which at times nearly drove me silly. Once again I should have known that there were deeper problems when they persisted and my eyesight continued to fail, but there you go once again, it’s never going to happen to me, is it, but……………
I look forward to once again interacting with you all.
Kind Regards,
Sally.
