Well the op is over and Mr Donaldson is very pleased with how it went. Jon is quite chirpy and chatty and enjoying the rest and the attention – all the nurses remembered him and were pleased to see him. One even asked where his poobah hat was! Lots of snoozing today and drinking water. If he keeps it down he will go on to food tomorrow and hope for the best. They will also get him up walking around. Thank you for all your phone calls and texts – we will be posting every night while he is in hospital. If things go well he could be home in 3-4 days, possibly for his birthday on Sunday. Oli and Jen are here tonight with me – Oli still working hard on his computer writing for work and Jen exhausted after cleaning out her old flat ready for the itinerary check on Saturday. It’s lovely having them here….
Love to everyone

I think it is appalling that they should be force feeding Jon with toilet rolls,even if he is smiling.I will speak to Matron in the morning.
ReplyDeleteGood to see him,nevertheless.
All our love to you all J&R XX

Great news! If previous performance is anything to go by, you'll all be home together very soon, for sure. Hope all continues to go well, and that you have an extra special day on Sunday, Tessa

Well done Jon, still the star patient - hope you can be a star performer later in the week when the big test comes. You'll be so pleased to get your old bum back. It's just marvellous how you have all coped with this, and hope you are all at home together for your birthday. Very much love to all the wonderful Beales, from the Simmos xxxx

ReplyDeleteMany thanks for keeping the "posts" going whilst Jon is in Hospital. When I open up and there is nothing new to read, it makes for really dull day.
Jon.
It sounds as if you are about to cut the estimated "escape" time; do hope you manage to do so for Sunday. Very Best Wishes for your Birthday from Ann and myself - I'll be thinking about you at Oxford, and raise my glass after watching the game.

It's good to see that you are still smiling. Glad everything seems to be ok. I hope they give you something good for your first meal and that you pass the "test" with flying colours! Will keep my fingers crossed that you get home for your birthday.
ReplyDeleteLove Jane
Hi Marilyn
ReplyDeleteWe're totally confident that all will be well very shortly. Its great that Jon has recovered so fast that they are willing to go ahead so soon - in a few months time it will all be just a distant memory !
Looking forward to getting him back on the course at Clandon "un-bagged".
Please give him our best wishes.
