Okay, this is written early, and scheduled, as my desk will be pretty much empty and bare. The reason being, I told you all last week that my surgery date was the 7th of Feb. Friday morning I had a call from my surgeons secretary, and immediately thought ' Here we go', as I said, they have a reputation for cancelling ops. However, she went on to say that if I was willing to be seen by another surgeon, one of them had a slot open up in their theatre list for Wednesday the 1st, and did I want it. So I said yes, just to get it over and done with. Means my surgery is a week early, and chances are I will be coming home before I was due to go in. So that's where I am by the time you are reading this.
But didn't want to miss the big 400 milestone,happening over at Julia's place, The Stamping Ground. and I will no doubt be able to visit over the coming days while I'm recovering.
Doug will put up a post on here, probably sometime on Thursday, just to let you know how things went.
So, thats a short & sweet post from me, and I'll be seeing you soon. XxX
EDIT: I just did a bit of research into my new surgeon, and seems he's actually the lead Thoracic surgeon for the team, so looks like I got an upgrade!

Hi Shaz, I didn't join in last week so hadn't realised you'd got the new date and an upgrade :-) Hope all goes well and you are soon home and recover quickly. Hugs Anne x #12
Thinking of you <3 x
We are all thinking of you today and hope that your 'upgraded' surgeon does a fantastic job. I had the same experience when I had my thyroid removed - the hospital would literally ring and give me a day's notice to go in for surgery (which is impossible when I have the animals to sort out and my mum needed to come and stay to help out). This happened twice until I told them I needed at least a few days to get sorted. Such a relief to think that you will be home before the original scheduled date. Ali x #5 currently!
Ooh fingers crossed and thanks to Doug for the updates ☺
Pleased you got the upgrade!!!, means you didn't have so long to worry and imagine all sorts of things, and more to the point you got the super expert.
Praying for a really good outcome and that you will soon be back blogging and crafting.
Bless you, and Doug.
