Happy days

Lockdown 2.0 - day 5

I was feeling pretty sorry for myself this morning, I think it’s finally hit me what’s happened and what I’m in for for the next few months.
I was feeling really grubby, not being able to shower isn’t good for me and my hair wasn’t helped at all by the shampoo cap.

Mr A was coming to bring me a few bits and bobs and knowing he’d be here but I couldn’t see him was the final straw....so I had a good cry!
The duty nurse came to console me and helped me out with a good wash and a fresh nightie. She also arranged for me to be taken outside to see Mr A when he arrived!
One of the other nurses (Edith, she’s my ‘hospital mum’) took me to the bathroom and washed my hair for me....I would have hugged her if I was allowed!

The doctors came to check my leg, all looks well so the nurses cleaned me up and put a fresh dressing on. I feel like new now!
There’s still no news as to when I will be transferred to Liverpool, and I will have a cage fitted following surgery but if it helps speed my recovery then I’m all for it.

The flowers arrived at home this morning so Mr A brought them for me to see and smell; sadly we aren’t allowed them on the ward.
They are from my friend Nicola; it’s her guides group I was getting the baubles for so I think she feels responsible in some way for my accident; she’s really not at all!
It was so nice of her to send them and along with everything else that’s happened today, I’m feeling much chirpier again.

Seeing Mr A was FRICKING AWESOME!!! I’ve missed him soooooooooooooooo much and one snog was all I needed to feel instantly better. I was worried I might not recognise him, he’s been living off fruit & fibre, but he was just as more handsome than I remember. I’m a lucky girl and I so appreciate the time I was able to spend with him :-)
