20th May: Hi there, I'm home

They have let me home today and it is great! Friday's procedure went as well as they could have hoped. In a few weeks I will have to go back to have a stent put in to stop the portal vein from narrowing; then with a bit of luck they can remove the external drain and things will settle down. In the short term I should be fine. In the longer term more extensive surgery may be necessary. I am not thinking that far ahead. Over the next few posts I will take you through my experiences of my second stay in Southampton Hospital.

  1. Welcome back, Lin. That was quick! I checked your blog before I went to bed last night, thinking maybe there would be something from Daniel, so I was really surprised that you are already back in action. Great news.
    Much love from Angus, Fergus, Jamie and Maggie xxxx
