A little update ...

Hi girls :-)

How are you all going?  Keeping warm and busy, I hope!

All went well at the hospital last week.  I went off to sleep laughing with the specialist, anesthesiologist and nurses about being special enough to have the machines that goes 'bing' and 'whoosh'!  (Monty Python humour!)

 

The specialist rang me earlier today, Tuesday, and I will be seeing him on Friday.  He is still waiting for some of the histology reports to come back from the many biopsies he took.

I have begun a course of medication and it seems to be helping, but there is no quick fix or even a cure.  So, a big lifestyle change for my family and me.  All for the better (and healthier) for us all though!

I am concentrating on getting a lot better before I get back into scrapping, art journaling and photography.

Keep well, I shall keep you updated.

Happy Scrapping,

Mandy :-)

Update for this week ... 13th July 2014

Hello on my way to hospital :-)

Finally!!  After seeing the specialist late on Friday, he has admitted me to hospital today.  Loads of tests are being done, left, right and centre!  Although I still feel yuck (that's a medical term, isn't it, lol!) at least something is being done to find out what's wrong.  I was getting quite down with the doctors as they just kept sending me away, but this specialist was fantastic.  He was extremely empathetic and got his receptionist to ring the hospital and add me to today's surgery list as a matter of urgency.  I felt so relieved that someone was finally listening to what was happening and doing something about it.

Anyhoo, workshops will be suspended until further notice.  As you can appreciate I have to concentrate on getting better and back to my 'normal' self.  

To all the ladies heading off on fantastic holidays - have a wonderful time!!!  Can't wait to see photos :-)

The rest of us staying put in Adelaide - stay warm and well!!!! 

I will keep you updated.

Happy Scrapping,

Mandy :-)
