fingers or other body parts crossed plz! Morticia

From: Morticia

Surgery, since healing of broken shoulder was a bit of a fail, is hopefully scheduled for tomorrow morning; always supposing the trauma team don't get a load of admissions over night.

I really, really want to be fixed and getting on with my life again so light candles that everyone in the Bath area has a peaceful and safe night, would you?

Thanks folks.

Fingers, toes crossed: check.

Confidence that your healing will be complete: check.

Wouldn't you like to be a fly on the wall while Jacqui and Mary "explain" to the surgeon why it would be a good idea to pull his finger out and get on with it (Jacqui's admonition to "get on with it" from the Mummers play at the Getaway are still ringing in my ears), I have been having colleagues looking at me funny for the last halfhour as I kept laughing at the imagined dialogue !!!(or should that be "Trialogue")between them and him.

From: Arnie

The NHS is great at dealing with emergency cases but sadly non-emergencies usually end up being put back repeatedly. I needed a small op which was forever delayed so I ended up going private and got it done within days. Sadly, private ain't cheap, and when you've paid National Insurance for years then there is an expectation that the NHS will look after you in a timely manner. Good luck Morticia and I really hope you don't have to wait much longer. In fact, isn't there a new Gov't target for surgery waiting lists, after which you can go private and get the NHS to pay?

Non-emergency? A broken collar bone that won't heal?
A splinter in the finger - YES. A hernia - yes. Even a hysterectomy for non cancerous reasons...but a broken collar bone?

Micca. I am far more intimidating when I am quiet and determined and seething. Works wonders on self important ward nurses. Doesn't hurt to give the impression that the next time they see you your pals from the hospital Board of Directors will accompany you.
Not talking about getting special treatment but a civil answer. Jacqui had one try to
dismiss her without a simple and courteous answer. She was dealt with very quickly and efficiently without ever raising my voice. Be afraid. Be very afraid.

Morticia seems OK with her treatment. So we'll just continue to wish her speedy care and healing. Poor Idris. By now he must be a candidate for sainthood.

Anyway, thanks for hanging in there with me,dear friends, just heard from the hospital and they have asked me to go in tomorrow on the basis that it's easier to fit me into a bed if I am actually on the premises so, all things being equal,I should be welded and braced by this time tomorrow.

Better to be in the waiting room waiting for a bed than awaiting a call to leave.

The first call saying don't leave till we confirm the room is empty caught me when I was ready to leave, but it takes me an hour & 2 buses to get there I said, wait, they said.

So I eventually arrived after staff had left for the day & it was mid morning the following day when I was finally hooked up (they had said I'd be hooked up at 7am when day staff arrived ... did I say our hospitals are understaffed?) & I sat around reading & knitting, waiting for the machine to blip, but nuffin' happened ...

They said stay overnight again until something happens, but I was booked in for 2 days & couldn't stay the extra night cos I had commitments on day 3, so I went home, which meant the test was inconclusive.

Had I been waiting in their waiting room ...

She had the op late this afternoon. So late that they're keeping her in overnight but they expect to discharge her sometime tomorrow. I've just got back from the hospital and, despite being connected to about a dozen tubes and hoses, she's amazingly chirpy - but I think that has something to do with that handy little morphine button she keeps playing with.

massive scar, a good 6 inches long, i'd say, wish i could show you all, showing off scars is the best bit!

all held together with little plastic strips which i've never seen before with proper stitches underneath those. anyone know if i can take the plastic ones off?

Do you suppose you could all fire up again, please? Hospital today see no sign of bone forming as yet. Now 6 weeks along,that isn't the end of the world but it is a mite discouraging, so some Mudcat ju-ju might just help things along a bit.Otherwise it's Cletus and the MiG and no-one wants that.

Whatever they try to use to help Morti was probably originally tested on laboratory rats or mice to insure success on the rodent to recovery from broken bones, Gnaws-ya from the chewed ones and pulled Hamstering Muscles and the like.

Somewhere they should erect a Tomb Of The Unknown Rat for those that actually died in the name of good.

Today as I sit at the auto shop, knitting away, I'll imagine your bones knitting together in full strength!

Meanwhile, loads of light and love and strength, my dear!

Electric therapy stimulation is being used here in the States with some success. Just give yourself some time - what choice do you have?
So sorry.

Ya' know Terri, I read this yesterday and outside of great thoughts and the like, I don't know what to say. Can't even come up with a bad joke or a message from Cletus............

What are they telling you? Not my business of course, but damn........Any ideas? New treatment? Anything as to why? Geeziz......Do they say anything?

Sorry............I just hate seeing you go through this. On the plus side, you have a lot of 'Catters behind you! Don't fart.

Set up a special room and IV for you in the Recovery Ward. Check in any time. One for you too Spaw.
This slow bone growth is a common complaint. Do a GOOGLE search for more info. Sit and wait is the cure - frustrating.

They're giving me 3-4 months,of which 6 weeks have gone, then they will go back in and do the graft and replate.

Sometime after that, if it works, they go in and take the plate out. I am looking to you guys (Spaw especially) for help in making up a really good story about how I wound up with what will look like three 6 inch claw marks across my shoulders!

It's a special, government-funded, highly fashionable, colourless (eventually, you hope) tattoo. Really.

I have a beautiful matching set on my ankles, thanks to icy Ottawa parking lots and the Ontario Hospital Insurance Plan.

The proof that experiments were carried out on you that time you were abducted by extra-terrestrials.

You know, that time in the Anchor.

Upscroll on another thread, the Mudcat Men say they are having a "joint Bonding session". If anybody comes up with some good methods, I'll send him/them over to you to help out.

Until then, hang loose, Morti, we're all pulling for you and your recovery.
