Finally awake ...

... this being ill stuff is tiring. I have just woken after being asleep pretty much since midday yesterday. I didn't have a lot of choice (Fizzy was right my mother is here to boss me around ... yes, all mother's are really good at being bossy Fizzy!!) Plus there's Simon ... not that he's being bossy, yet, it's just that I didn't realise quite how worried he was. Isn't that always the same with men ~ he didn't say "I'm worried" but there he was thinking it all and bottling it all up when it's much better just to say it out loud :o)

It was a good job that I came out yesterday, after gallons of antibiotic, my second canula or the vein it was going into pretty much gave up the ghost. The nurse says that a couple of months and the veins will be back to normal ~ I'll lay off the hard drugs for a while! I'd had a very disturbed Monday or was it Tuesday night when the first canula had blocked and they'd found Andy "I'm the man they call when no-one can get a canula in" ... ha, my hand and wrist foxed him! Not a vein in sight! Two tries at 1.45am and he was out! So he told the doctors "you want a canula in, you do it!" She did, straight in the elbow at 2.30am ~ it's amazing how much of life in a hospital goes on at night.

Anyway, on Simon's orders me and my black/blue hands, wrists and elbows are off back to bed now ... did I say he wasn't being bossy? Maybe I was wrong! I shall take a pile of books and relish the fact that I have a doctor's paper which keeps me off school until April 19th ~ trust me, I'll be bored with this by tomorrow!
