Overwhelmed, as I knew I would be, by the sympathy.

Keep out of hospitals as much as possible- they are about the best place to get acquired infections.

When they offer the chance to go home early - I'd take it..!

Otherwise hope it goes well.

It won't be for a while yet. Apparently it needs to get worse before they can make it better.....

They last about 10 yrs and they can only do it twice so you don't want to have the first one done too young!
