6th Night Ahead

I am now approaching my 6th night in hospital and the days are starting to blur one into another.

In many ways it had been a bit of a frustrating day as I have been told I would have part of the blood transfusion today and a CT scan and as I write it is 5.45 pm and neither have happened!

On the blood transfusion someone has been round and taken blood for crossmatching so I would hope the transfusion goes ahead.

And as an inpatient they can come and collect you at any time for scans and xrays.

I will probably get hooked up for the transfusion and they will turn up for the scan!

I don’t know what hours they work in the different departments but it was fairly quiet over the weekend but I suppose both could still happen?

I am in a bay of four people so people come and go and you get to hear their stories; some very similar to my own and others very different.

I have a great view of London from the window but haven’t been able to make much of it while I am confined to bed. What I can see is the dawn getting brighter and more recently the dark of the evening coming on and the tops of tower blocks lighting up.

So I will post this rather dull update and if I do get either the blood transfusion or CT scan I will let you know.

Sorry if this sounds a bit down but it is more boredom more than anything. I am so looking forward to getting our of bed and being able to move around a bit more!
