I had a very bad night yesterday, even though the wound is healing and everything on a whole is brilliant. Last night I was so tired I fell asleep on the side of the wound and woke up in the middle of the night and tried to turn over and it was sore, I tried to lie on the other side and woke up with a dead leg so decided to sleep flat which put direct weight on a bruised wound, all in all a uncomfortable night so I woke up feeling quite sore all over.

As I turned to watch my daily dose of BBC news I came straight back down to earth when I heard about all the atrocities being committed in Aleppo it just saddens me and humbles me all at the same time, I’m complacent where as I am in the best place right now when compared to the many women on my PN group who have undergone this surgery or even those that have not, there are so many who have no support, they had to get through it all on their own. What is really sweet one of the lovely ladies on there was on their own through this procedure so another lady from the same group decided to take a flight over to her so that she can help be there for her (that is just off the scale generosity). It is times like these that I believe in the human race.

Yesterday I had to message my PN friends Heather and Marcie just to query my little aches and pain and the fact that after a week sometimes I will still flare up down below, feeling really sore and usually it is the position I’ve been in all day due to visitors (makes me tired but at the same time I don’t want the visitors to stop either).

They assured me that this was perfectly normal and to take it easy and stop trying to fly before I could even crawl let alone walk or run. It is so nice having them right there any time I need them. God bless them all. They have helped me through many times. The times where I used be flared in the night when everyone else was asleep and I knew they wouldn’t understand I’d get my phone and have a good old rant and I knew my PN family would understand they wouldn’t judge, they would just listen and reply instantly and I really do mean instantly from all over the world.

 Currently I am lying on my belly trying to write my blog and now my back is hurting so I will write a little later. On the plus side it is Christmas so there will be a lot on T.V. to watch throughout my recuperation 😉
