Update on surgery

Hi everyone, just an update before we go see mum.
mum was taken ill yesterday with chest pains, because of this the consultant has spoken with her and moved the surgery forward to Thursday as the stress of being in the hospital obviously isn't good for her heart. Mum is fine though and at least it will get the surgery out of the way and she can focus on recovering.
I am back to school tomorrow and I and my brother will be going up to see mum every other night to see mum, so i will be posting her blog on the nights we are at home.
Mum loves all the comments she has received and I will be printing them off tomorrow night for her before her surgery.
thank you all for your comments and kid words it means a lot to all of us :)

  1. I cannot tell you how glad I am to hear this surgery is being taken care of sooner rather than later. And once it done she'll be as right as rain. My thoughts and prayers will be with you all Thursday.

  15. Debbie, I'm happy that the surgery has been moved up, but not happy with your pain. I hope things move much smoother for you and that you get home soon to recover in comfort.

    You've got three great men in your life to wait on you hand and foot.

    If I could I'd come clean up after the ponies for you. ;-)

  17. Hi Debbie, Ben, Harry and Mick.
    I've been shopping all day today and just got in. My first job was to switch the comp on at this late hour and see if there were any updates.
    Debbie, you must try not to stress, takes deep breaths when you feel anxious (count to ten too) and try and stay calm and relaxed. I know i'm not the best for giving this type of advice (being the stress head i am) but you really must try and shut off when you are frustrated or fed up with it all.
    I think of you all the time and i can't put into words how i feel, but i want you better because i miss you loads and i know the boys, mick and everyone else does too.
    But you must, must take it easy, find enjoyment in the dullest of days, you must laugh at the escorted trips to the loo, and while this is happening rememeber you are there to get better.
    I wish i could visit but know i have to wait.
    So for now until i see you i send you my biggest and best wishes and lots and lots of virtual hugs.
    Lots of love, Nikki x

  18. BIG HUGS!

    This will mean getting home earlier, which is so much nicer. There's nothing like the comforts of home and being able to relax in one's own bed!

    I know we will see you back on your feet very soon :)

  21. Debbie - I am sorry that you are going through pain and stress right now but I am glad that they have moved your surgery up. It will all be behind you soon and you will be home before you know it. My husband had a heart attack last August and now a year later he is in far better shape than he was before his heart attack. I will be thinking of you on Thursday and look forward to hearing from Ben that you are home again. I am very thankful that Ben has taken the time to keep us posted. What a wonderful son you have.
