So today is the day! A bit nervous, I’m not going to lie but really comfortable with my decision...

wish me luck everyone!

Congrats on reaching the losers' bench! Have you been able to walk the hospital hallways?

Not yet - gonna try for that this afternoon. If I can do that - it’s another tick in the box for going home ?

That walking really helps and is for your safety to prevent blood clots. Make it a top priority! [emoji106]

I’ve been for three walks now so well on my way to the losers bench ?

Thank you to everyone for your best wishes - 36 hours later and I’m feeling a lot better. First 12 hours were pretty bad and was in quite a lot of pain - it’s definitely subsiding hour by hour and I’m hoping that I’ll be back at home within 24 hours x happy to answer any questions and I promise I’ll be ? honest x

Congrats to you. Welcome to the team. How you feeling so far?

Not too bad - still hurting and feel hugely swollen. Stomach bruising really bad - its basically a big purple mess.

food wise - not hungry at all and taking maybe 3-4 teaspoons 3 times a day.

A little stressed with the fragmin injections - but managing pretty well so far - thanks ??

You're in my thoughts and prayers.
