The 'ops' over!

This is a 'hotch potch' post about the last 2 days.
Firstly the Facebook post I did this morning...


But it wasn't long before I ran out of steam a bit...DH captured this :-)
( it is sooooo scary because in this photo I look sooooo like my mother...uncanny! Lol )
This morning I had a shower and 'said goodbye' to my hospital issue paper undies!

But the hospital issue pressure socks are staying with me for a couple of weeks...

But I have accessorised them with some bunny slippers...
My diet is described as Free Fluids...

The lunch tray was a bit overwhelming and most of those containers went into the little fridge here in the room...
I ate most of the soup which was delicious.
For dinner I had ordered the consommé...not good...tasteless! So I had a tub of custard and a tub of puréed pears, instead, both saved from the lunch tray. 
Today I went for regular little walks around the ward...I brought a pashmina instead of a dressing gown to hospital this time...much easier to manage.
And of course the physio brought down this little gadget to help with lung  function.
I have to inhale enough to raise those 3 balls to the top of their tubes. 
I'm off home tomorrow morning, so that's pretty good I reckon, 2 nights instead of the 3!
