X-Ray

I have just come back from an x-ray with the excellent news that the re-joined colon has healed perfectly and does not leak. I had an enema with dye in it which showed all was well. It was a bit of a shock to the system having activity in the bum again!

I will hear formally from my consultant later this week about the reversal but it should be all systems go in about 4 months time. Yippee!!

  1. Excellent news, good for you - it's not every day that you can say you're happy about bum activity! It all sounds a bit sordid if you ask me.
    Love ya,
    Frances and Skip xoxo

  2. Francis you are an absolute legend with your quick reponses and a very loyal fan despite your cravings for nudity. Of all people you probably have the largest private collection of naked Beale photographs so why you want more I don't know. I am looking forward to being your private dancer when we visit Canada in October.
    Love you, Jon xxxxxxxxx

  5. Private dancer eh? You had better hope it's not too cold!!! It's all fun and games until someone loses an eye. Did you ever think that I might just spend way too much time on the computer? Can't wait until October to see you both. Love your biggest fan xoxox

  6. Neville very kindly sent me a photo of himself with a drain bag from his recent back operation. I have been too upset to reply until now. I thought it was in very poor taste particularly as I have done my utmost to maintain a level of decorum and seriousness on this blog. I am however thrilled he has joined the survivors club. Love you Neville x

  7. That's really good news! You'll be back to wishing your botty good morning in no time. I can't believe how quickly you've gone from diagnosis to this - I'm sure your determination to laugh in the face of disaster had something to do with it. Good work! Tessa

  9. Hi Jon! Having had a lovely long conversation with Marilyn on the phone, we were all up to speed with your wonderful news. However, thought we would add to the burgeoning numbers on "hits" to get you up to the 4,000 mark, only to find that you have far exceeded it. What happened to the next photo? - or is Jen's educational contribution IT? Impressive as it is, it lacks personality somehow. I suppose it's on to the 5,000 mark now - phew! Thank goodness for Frances and Skip. No letting up there. Well done Canada. Such wonderful news though Jon. You have been fantastic and we are all so thrilled with your progress. Love from us all, the Simmos xxxx

  10. When you say "activity in the bum again"....!?!
    Just thought we'd catch up with progress and so delighted to read such positive news, so great for all of you. So looking forward to having all our mates completely mended again - what a year it has been! love to you all, Bill & Caroline x
