Operations

Having heard how Harry is doing so well brought back memories of my own operation and how I thought I had done well leaving hospital after only 11 days.  Strange though because back in 04 when I went in for the VAT, which was intended to be a quick look inside to see what was happening I ended up having a 5 hour operation and tumours removed then.  Although the pain on waking wasn't anywhere as bad as the full on operation, I was bleeding internally and the fear was I would need more surgery during the night.  In some respects I guess I have had a decortication carried out twice!  It wasn't until I was talking about Harry that I thought about this, so if things go as well for him as they did for me with pain after my first partial decortication then he will do well.
