Glad all that medical trauma is behind you! Sounds like a harrowing time. It’s always moving to me when people in the health system are compassionate and patient and gentle and kind, in spite of being under the pump. It makes a whole world of difference 🧡 Glad you had that experience while suffering such pain and worry. Hopefully some time to rest is in your near future 🤞

Thanks, Joanna, what a nice message. I'm honestly amazed by what staff in emergency do despite the pressure they're under.

Argh, Annabel!!! My dodgy gall bladder and I send our sympathies. Ditto, re soldiering on when you’re in a self-employed or temp or contract work sitch. Take care, my friend x

Thanks Emily. I suppose I was just grateful that it wasn't anything life-threatening.
