So spending the day with Basil will be like spending a day with Noddy except that Basil doesn't smoke?! Hope your son gets his tooth sorted soon; must be miserable having toothache for such a long time.
Dita, I hope your OH gets another date for his pre op checks very soon. I suppose they've just run out of beds and staff again with this "winter crisis" we keep hearing about.
My OH went for his liver scan on Monday and the surgery called today to say one of the partners will phone him on Friday next week to discuss the result. We both think that's encouraging in that it doesn't sound as though they're regarding it as urgent (Although I upset him by suggesting the scan shows his liver is so pickled that nothing can be done and the doc is calling to say goodbye! Can't help my dark side showing sometimes).
Penny - his leg problem has been ulcers due to having poor circulation and swollen legs. Every little knock breaks the skin and it ulcerates. He's been told to wear the support socks 24/7 to prevent the swelling recurring and the cycle starting all over again. It's been a recurring problem for about 4 years now and this is better than he's been in all that time so hats off to Lincoln Lower limb clinic.
Off to bed now before I turn into a pumpkin. Night night all.
