....My old man's a.........

retired Chemical works foreman.

Over at Dad's ready to take him to hospital tomorrow for his operation for Carpel Tunnel syndrome in his right hand.

Packed a bag last night, plus a large toilet/shower bag half filled with the medicines for my cough. To work this morning, full day at work then drove straight over here. It had just started raining as I pulled off the car park and I swear that cloud followed me all the way, if I slowed down it slowed down, if I speeded up it did the same. I even stopped for a coffee to try and get it to blow on ahead of me, but it just kind of hung around waiting. Now it's firmly settled over Dad's house!

Early start in the morning, we have to be at the hospital for 8, but we don't know when exactly he's having the procedure. I'll probably leave him there and come back here until they call me. Then when he's home we have to see how he is, hopefully he'll only have a tiny incision and no pain so he might be able to start doing things and I can stay one more night and then get back home. If not I'll probably have to take him home with me and then bring him back here at the weekend. If he is up to staying here though we need to go shopping again for things that are simple to cook and eat for a few days as I don't think he'll be able to hold a knife/fork too well.

In other medical matters we had some bad news this morning at work regarding a colleague who became quite ill suddenly last night. Not sure of all the details, relying on hebs to fill me in, but hoping that he gets well soon.

If all goes to plan should be able to blip one of the world's superheroes tomorrow. ......."But which one?" I hear you ask.....aaahhh that would be telling,....you'll just have to wait.

Das vidanya.
