Mrs LD

[Lazydocker]

Mrs LD (or Cakey) has had a busy week. Last Monday she went into hospital for a 6-7 hour operation to (hopefully) stop her from all the pain and discomfort of the last few years.

In the end she was in surgery over 10 hours but he did succeed in performing it all laparoscopically (keyhole) and she came home on Friday!

Recovery is slow and steady and she is gradually getting better and getting used to things now.

10 hours ! Must have been quite serious hope all is well with her & a speedy recovery best wishes .

Please pass on our best wishes for a speedy recovery.

Wish her a full recovery. Usual things apply... Don't over do it and rest lots (ie as much as possible with two little s)

Been watching the progress on FB and I must admire her courage going through this.  Having a similar illness I run a very real risk one day of having to through the same thing and the prospect terrifies the flick out of me.  I have already passed on my thoughts personally but I am relieved that Mrs Cakey is doing well and I am looking forward to caching up soon!

Chris has been keeping me updated via FB ... sounds pretty horrendous but the important bit is she is making good progress and will soon, hopefully, be a) pain free and b) fully recovered...

You just pamper her .... lots ..

Poor old Mrs LD    I hope she is feeling better soon and that the operation has been successful in stopping her pain.

What do you mean "pamper her lots"surely he gave her the ten hours off housework to have the op?That's enough pampering isn't it
Seriously though I hope as do the others that she recovers quickly and is free from the pain she's had.Wish her all the best

Well, if she's at home, bored, with nothing to do, she can always consider Brownies by post. You know my address

Hope recovery is speedy, and it makes life a lot easier in the future.

Those who have followed one or both of us on Facebook will know how much of a massive operation this was. She was diagnosed with Bowel Disease about a year ago (despite a previous consultant ruling it out through negligence, but that's another story!) and has gotten progressively worse.

Whilst the pain from the operation (which should have taken about 7 hours) she has had is pretty intense, once the trauma of the surgery calms and she recovers it is expected she will be pain free!

I will, of course, pass on everyone's messages. Thanks.
