Hi again from Brian
Lorraine's Words:
"How very bothersome!!!
I am reposing here in Geelong Hospital, having travelled via ambulance transfer vehicle on Friday evening. No major ambulance 'stories' this time, but I was sure glad to arrive in Geelong at 10p.m. and move positions. On arrival I had to wait until 2.30a.m. before a doctor was available to admit me - and by this time my pain was through the roof because I couldn't access any of my meds until I was admitted!
Saturday morning saw me in a pretty poor state, dealing with pain and difficult surgeons - but I won't even go there! However a Portland 'angel' popped in to see me, saw that I was in a pickle, and promptly changed her travel plans to stay with me until Brian's arrival on Sunday afternoon.
I am (probably) to have the pleurodesis procedure done, so today (Monday) I fasted - only to be told mid-afternoon that they won't do the procedure until late on Wednesday.
This is getting very close to pushing all our Christmas plans into complete disarray, especially as we don't know how long my hospitalised rehab period will be (anything from 1 to 3+ days). It's tough on Brian too.
Meantime I have to let the 'timing' go, but some prayers for patience and peace wouldn't go astray!
My days are also being brightened by some lovely visits, calls and texts - THANK YOU"
