GRRRR!!!!!

Here I am, all ready to go to the hospital for my op tomorrow when I get a call to say it has been cancelled !!!!!!!!!!

I’m having the op on the NHS here in the UK. There is a shortage of beds and my surgeon’s list has been cancelled for tomorrow as the op is non urgent.

All I can do now is wait to get another appointment, not sure how long that will be. The hospital are saying a couple of weeks, the appointments centre say it could be the New Year.

Hopefully I’ll still become a December sleeve sister to you all. Keep your fingers crossed for me.

Best wishes

omg, i am so sorry!!! I would be ripped! After spending the last 2 weeks STARVING, I think that hospital staff would have to watch out! I hope it gets sorted out soon :-(

That really sucks! I hope they get you in ASAP. Best wishes.

Hi Angela, so sorry to hear about the cancellation, i know what you are feeling like, do yourself a favour and rant and rave for a few days, get it out of your system then phone the hospital and get them to give you a new date ASAP, i just got my new date, which is now 11th jan, if your new date is in the new year, then enjoy Xmas, and get back on the ride after that, believe me i know it is hard to cope with the decision, but i am on my 3rd date now and still waiting, we will get there, i truely believe that, take care, Viv xx

WOW!!!! I am sooooo sorry to hear about your cancellation. Hopefully it will not be to long before you have your surgery.

Hi there to all my brilliant sleeve sisters. Thank you so much for your support. It is really great to know I have you all there to lean on at times like this.

I'm going to phone the hospital tomorrow to see if I can be added to the surgeon's list for next Tuesday. I don't think it will be possible, but its worth a try.

If they can't do that I've decided to wait until the New Year. My surgeon only does the procedure at my local hospital on Tuesdays and I don't really want the week after as it is Christmas week. I live on my own and don't want to put upon family and friends for help over the Christmas holidays, I'd feel so guilty.

I'll let you know what happens after I've called the hospital.

Once again, thank you so much for your support.

Best wishes and hugs

Oh Angie

I really feel for you, a temporary set back... try to stay positive and think of those lovely five young men... Race you to the front...lol... xx

Sorry to hear that, I know would have been crushed. You sound like you have a good perspective. Best of luck on getting it done next week!

BOO! That is not nice! I hope you can get in next Tuesday. They do say that good things come to those who wait! LOL Good luck~
