Friday 6th February 2009

Firstly, a few people have asked for the details of the hospital. I will probably be in intensive care/high dependency etc for a couple of days, but after that I will be back on the ward at

The York Suite
Bradford Hospitals NHS Trust
Bradford Royal Infirmary
Duckworth Lane
Bradford
West Yorkshire
England
BD9 6RJ
Telephone +44 (0) 1274 364668


I'm due to be in hospital for 12 days (the standard for this procedure), but this may be extended if necessary

I will get back to the blog as soon as I can to let people know when I'm up for visits, but in the meantime Vanda will hopefully be able to post a couple of messages to let you know progress.

I heard this morning that I now have to go without solid food all day Sunday (fluids only) which is a nightmare! Even a few hours without food affects me badly, but all day Sunday, all night and then Monday morning too (surgery will be around 10.30am apparently) - I'm going to be chewing my fingers off!

Cheers x

One banana, two banana, three ...

A whole Sunday without food!
Tis wrong! But if it means it's going to work, then what the hell.

We're thinking of you mate.
