It's Friday, it's operation day, Woohoo!
No cat blogging or photo hunt this week, I'll be in hospital today having an arthroscopy. I'll be back by evening but I doubt I will want to sit at a computer.
Second thoughts, come back later for some cat blogging, Goya stylee!
THanks. I'm doing fine. It's pretty painful but not too bad. I'll be off work until the end of the month. I can't risk the hell of rush hour commuting for a little while
Arthroscopy... thanks, Jams, I learned another word today thanks to you. I gather it's behind you now and wish you a quick recovery and to forget this word quickly.
Thanls Snoopy. it seems to be fine. I'm still waiting for tonight or so when the last of the anaesthetic flushes out. It may be a bit more painful then... Still, it is over though!
I shudder to think what the old procedure must have been like Bryan. As for me, so far , so good, I hope I will echo the sentiments of the others you know who have had the treatment
Best wishes!

ReplyDeleteThanks Carver. Things are going well so far

ReplyDeleteI had a cousin who went through the old procedure years ago, and that was a very long process.
I know a couple of people who have had it done by the new "keyhole" method, and they came back very quickly and were thrilled with the results.
I shudder to think what the old procedure must have been like Bryan. As for me, so far , so good, I hope I will echo the sentiments of the others you know who have had the treatment
