I felt tired but no real pain. I had oxgen tubes up my nose and the oxygen made my nose, throat and mouth dry as

Keep the fluids up!

Presumably you are blogging from something like a smartphone?

I'm trying to keep fluids up.
I'm home now. I came home Friday night and I'm trying to chronologically put the experiences down before I forget the important bits.

Understood.

I'm getting confused about the time sequence - perhaps you could add this?

I'm glad it finally went ahead, and hope all the unpleasantness passes soon so the good stuff can come. :)

Get well soon! Am thinking of you!

Glad you finally got your op :) Hope you feel better soon!

I think I must have missed the bit where you said that this was imminent - last I heard, your op had just been postponed again. I'm glad you've finally had it, and I hope that you regain mobility (and improved mobility at that) very soon.

Take care.

After the last postponement I was given 28th Sept as the date, but, I had to phone on the morning of addmission (that meant before 6am as I was due in at 7am) to make sure there was still a bed allocated.
I decided not to mention it close to the date in case I jynxed it.
