So after being first admitted on 19th June, my mother is due to leave hospital today. An absolute rollercoaster of a two and a bit months, and despite still showing some signs of the battle the medics are happy to remove all restrictions on my motherās liberties. A further period of recovery awaits but weāll take that.
Iād like to thank everyone for the good wishes. It meant a lot to see that support. Hopefully we wonāt be seeing the horrible grey building of Sligo General Hospital any time soon.
Itās a great feeling. Best of luck to her. I was in for a check up the Tuesday of the All Ireland. My surgeon is a big hurling and Waterford man. It was a great feeling when he said " you can head off now. I wont have to look at that Jersey for another six months "
Enjoy the feeling boss. As Iāve said plenty of times, itās the ones closest to the patient that often suffer more then patient themselves
I know that the bumping of this thread seldom contains good news but, thankfully, this is an exception.
Mother-in-law had her surgery the morning after the All-Ireland and her recovery over the last few weeks has been very difficult. However, she attended UHL this afternoon for her results and it was all good. The cancer hasnāt spread and theyāre confident that it was all removed during the surgery. There may be a minor course of chemo required but they havenāt fully decided on that yet.
Massive relief for all of us, particularly for Mrs.Kremmen who has been living with and caring for her since the op.
My wife went into hospital yesterday to have a benign rumour removed from the back of her mouth, benign is a great word obviously in that context but itās still a tumour, so sheās beeen really worried since she had the scan which diagnosed it.
Anyway she goes under the knife yesterday and it turns out to be a sac of pus which developed when some piece of food penetrated the skin at least a year ago,
Great news but needless worry caused
