Today I am determined to make some headway. I ring Jo who tells me the second letter was written by a different department because they weren’t sure they would have space for me on this Friday’s radiology list. I said it didn’t matter to me who wrote the letter but that it was out of order that I still don't know when I am due to be admitted.
Jo then said I could risk going in on Thursday but I could be sent home again. She also said that Prof P wanted a blood test today at St Mary’s in Newport. I told her that I was not able to get to the hospital as I can’t yet drive and I am not very mobile. She said: “ I don’t know what else I can do”.
Fortunately the District Nurse had arranged for my GP to do a home visit this morning. I explained to him the state I am in at the moment; unable to get around much and in pain still from the drain in my rib which is becoming increasingly sore. He said he will liaise with the hospital and see what he can do. He also organised for the nurse to come and take blood from me tomorrow. He called back later in the day to tell me that I am to go in on Thursday. There is no absolute guarantee they will do the procedure on Friday but once I am there they will do their best. Fortunately I am still emotionally strong enough to fight my corner. Now I can only wait until Thursday and see what happens. I won’t be able to write any blog from the hospital, but I will ask Daniel if he can at least update you as to what is happening.
I also had a message from Dr B’s secretary. They have passed on the form about my early retirement claim. Hopefully things will start moving now.
