Lol!! First nights after surgery were in the CCU and yes, got the sponge bath in the morning - from "Brendon".........

Been in the ward the last few days, and all the nursing staff are female thankfully!! Actually, they have all been terrific, not one among them has been less than first class, not a single grouch among them. Seeing the surgeon shortly to work out when I can leave-hopefully by the weekend. Prognosis all looks good, hopefully back at work within three weeks.

Hi guys, hopefully the last "hospital" update! All looking good to get out of here tomorrow night or Saturday morning.

Not that I am all happy about going home - Must say, the quality of care provided here is exceptional (not to mention the abundant pain relief on demand!!  :D ).  But getting back home will be nice too. Desperate for a game or two, although they'll have to be few and far between for a few weeks.

I asked one of the nurses if she could arrange one of those buttons that seem to result in almost instant attention for me at home. She said she could but they work differently. Press the button and the wife's lawyers come and serve divorce papers..........

It is always fun to make light of someone elses misfortune, after all it is the Aussie way.  I know if it was me in Nick's shoes I'd be scared sh**tless.  *)*

I certainly hope Brendan is on holidays for the next few weeks and Brenda takes his place Nick.

Good to hear you are on the mend anyway.
