              I had an almost good sleep last night in the hospital at least no more pain yahoo! But because of all this saline solutions they are giving me to flush me out I had to get up an pee every 45 minutes All night long . Wow that is tiring. Up with the birds finally a 6:30 am check my emails and blog comments and want to thank everyone so much for all you kind thoughts , best wishes and prayer, A bit and a tasty bread and a a tasty fish and lunch meal more lunch. With the doc sending the results to the London Health Centre  CLIPS (Center for Liver and Pancreas Surgery). We got a phone call from them before noon today to confirm our contact  information and the doctors will go over our paper work Tuesday (Monday is a Holiday here) and inform us of further testing that may be required also we can get to see him asap.
            They finale set loose at 2 pm on Friday afternoon after 56 hours on the hospital, poking producing drugging me finally the pain went away and I feel much better to be back home with my honey.
7 am stratford emergency
minutes later I was in an emerg bed hooked up
drip drip saline and pain killers
my lunch in emergency, split ham and pea soup
then I had drink almost 2 of these and retain it before my cat scan
then the, MRI and another scan
      Finally admitted into a room to manage my pain, free tv. And man did they managed it I was really out of it, could barely talk and no way could I type lol....

      Here we are back home in Tavistock at Rose and Ross's feels good to be be back home again. out here in the county where we belong.

  1. Hey George I see they even let your hat into the emergency room. Your looking well despite all the ware and tare of these past few days. And wow meals in bed. You were living the life of Riley there. Always a great feeling to get home again. Glad to see the medical wheels are in quick motion. The quicker they can get working on your problem the better. I know how you feel about the uncertainty of your RVing future but keep your foot in the door and don't let anybody slam it shut on ya. Just keep those deserts and mountains in your mind:))

    1. Yes Al my hat goes where I go. The meals in bed were very nice but I found too large. Yup being waited on hand and foot, really not used to this, soon I can be me again. It is nice to get back into our home agin for sure.
      I am glad they are moving forward on this quickly too Early detection and treatments make a huge difference. We will be keeping raving around as long as possible, one way our the other, that's for sure It really has been my life for over 50 years. Gonna miss those deserts and maintains this year, hopefully again. at least we have the blog handsome amazing memories.

  2. I'm glad you're home. Hospitals are not a place to get any rest. We gave up our summer travels because of Jim's health but it really was a smart choice on our part. A hot hot choice but a good one. Praying by next year you and Suzie will be ready to head out.

  8. Hey George chin up!! This would be a lot scarier if you were in a hospital in the southern USA with your fingers crossed that the health insurance would stand behind the hospital stay. Praying that all is well and that you are back on the road soon. I did notice that the hospital food even looked ok.

  15. Glad to hear you are home once more with your "sweetie". Love seeing you smile while at the hospital. Even the food in Canada looks better than the one at our local hospital.
