Here too! When I was in recently you got toast OR cereal though some wards were more generous and the tea was a vile brew! Gone are the days of cooked breakfasts there!
I think tea is vile anyway, last time I was here I made the mistake of having toast , I know what you're thinking not much harm they can do to toast, mine came still half frozen in the middle YUK.
 
Well it's been a rather confusing morning to say the least.
I've gone from ,waiting a few more days to see if the Anti Bs will do the trick then from the doc I'm under ,we need to remove at least some of that toe around lunchtime, don't worry about having had breakfast, we'll do it under a local (thanks not) . Then the first group came back and said "really" while they were grouped around the horrid thing on the end of my leg , I could see them all scratching their heads in supprise.
Then some bright spark put a nil by mouth notice outside my door, thankfully the chap who is nicking my toe noticed and wiped it off.
Unfortunately they are not sure about my big toe, but I'll cross that bridge when I have to

Thinking of you Ljc, it must be a scary and uncertain time for you. All joking apart, hope you are coping ok and getting plenty of support.
 
Sending good vibes and luck your way. Hope they make up their minds soon about what they are planning on doing with your tootsies. XX

Awwwwwww nooooooo I though when they said let's see if the antibiotics do owt you had a good chance of no surgery. I am so sorry. This is awful news. Completely agree with Amigo this is not a time for silly jokes so I will dispense with trying to make them. We are all thinking of you and really hoping for the best for you. Stay strong and take good care of yourself

Thank you everyone .
I do like a good joke so please don't hold off K .
Well it's all done n dusted. Their a great bunch of people here , kept me giggling all the way down to theatre . Once in theatre they put a warm air blower under me blanket so I was warm n snug then proceed to try and make me P myself laughing not only by jokes but the chap in charge of my foot kept giving it a good tickle well that what it seemed like to me.
I was soon back on the ward and stuffing myself with a nice tuna salad it also came with a white roll and butter which is calling to me loudly, so loudly that I'm unable to resist. Back later
 
Had a nice supprise , a few mins ago I realised I'd not taken any Novorapid before dinner , so I checked my BG fully expecting it to be high especially after that roll,
5.5 yay

You are a damned sight braver than me. If you are up for just an itsy bitsy joke then: What's brown and not very good for your dental health?

image.jpeg That's great and I'm still dying my best friends o get out of here but they won't let me 😉
 
Hmmm I see my Ipads been playing silly sods again.
 
What's it up to? Do you have a release date yet? Hope you have managed to get some rest 🙂
My iPads a wild caught one , though mostly tame now it does like to say it's own thing sometimes and it can be very rude, I can't help but love it though.

They're making sure I get plenty of rest thanks,
I did hear mention of Thursday but if my big toe refuses to play ball...
 
Hope you're not too bored in there LJC, the last time I went in I was climbing the walls! Have a word with big toe, tell him to pull his socks up and start looking prettier for the doctors so you can get out of there sharpish. Hope brekkie is as good as yesterday and you're not feeling too battered and bruised 🙂
