Hi My Friends
WOW! what another year of covid restrictions and trying so so hard to get back to some kind of normality, only to find ourselves back into the worry factor about what to do for Christmas, but everyone that is coming over has had their booster jabs. I know its not the miracle cure jab we all hoped for, but I really need
to have a Family Christmas. We feel we have done everything we can and have
been asked to do to secure a family Christmas. Besides I can't keep the
decorations up for another year that's just silly, but I will if I have to.
I for one took it so cautiously leading up yo my knee operation. I isolated took and the PCR test. I went to hospital on the day to have my knee replacement. I was sat waiting in my op gown ready to go to theatre. Then the surgeon walked in and said " I've not seen you before have I" I replied no. He then said I can't do your operation today as I've never met you," and have only spoken on the phone and until I meet you and assess your knee I won't do the operation today". I was so upset at this point as I'd worked myself up so much to have this operation. It turned out to be a clerical fault. I have since met my surgeon, signed the consent form and I am now on the waiting list again. The problem that I have is that when he examined my knee he manipulated it so much that I shouted in pain, my knee is now giving me so much more pain to the point I think it is going to give way. He showed me my X-ray and told me I am on bone to bone and have severe Arthritis. I have been in contact with the surgeons secretary and she said she would get me booked in again and a letter will follow, I've not heard anything since the 9th December. Any way I am healthy in every other way so I should not complain, as I know my dear friend is dealing with a lot more than I am. I know she has had some wonderful news and is looking forward to a special Christmas and a most positive 2022.
I received a letter today with my new date for my operation and it's not until the 26th May. I don't think my knee will last that long.
I would like to take this opportunity to wish you all, Please have a very Happy Christmas & a Happy New Year. 2022 has to be the year of Love & Hugs without masks. Well maybe later in the year as things don't look gook right now, but just think we can can Kick this virus in the arse once and for all when we've all had our jabs and get back to a hug when greeting family & Friends without the worry of passing on a pandemic.
Love & Hugs to you all & a Happy & Healthy 2022 and a big Thank you for returning to my blog whether you just pop in and have a look, but especially to you who stay to leave a message. It means a lot, so Thank you again.
MERRY CHRISTMAS
