Bobs Bowel 10 – The Big Day


Finally, the big day has arrived. Today is the day I am to have  my tumour removed.

I’m due at the hospital at 06:30. I have been told that I am the only patient on the list, so I am hoping that means first into theatre. No hanging around.

So my next post will be after my procedure when I am compos mentis again.

It’s funny how it seems to have taken a while to get to this point, but in reality, it has been just over three months, from diagnosis to surgery.

If all goes to plan, I’ll be in theatre for about three hours. Then, after time in recovery, I should be on the ward in time for tea. Although I doubt I’ll be in any fit state to eat and who knows what diet I’m going to be on.

I’ll see you on the other side.
