My house

Well I thought I'de post pictures of my home from when we got.

Dum spiro spero = while I breathe I hope







We have completely redecorated the house, the bedrooms, living room and hall are nearly complete now. Next we plan on converting the garage into a pole and hoop studio, re tile the bathroom and eventually get a new kitchen.

I'm so happy in our home, being able to make it mine from top to bottom is a something iv wanted to do for a long time.

HOME!!!

So my Hubby travelled all the way to London for the day and bought the dog with him. I was so happy when I woke Thursday morning and text him to find out when he was setting off for his 3 hour journey, to which he rung me and told me he was about 20minutes away.

I dropped everything and rushed to beautify myself and make sure I looked as pretty as possible as I wanted him to be happy to see me and not forget what a wonderful wife he has while I’m away.

We went for breakfast and I finished off my neb regime, which is now even more ridiculous. 9:00 Pumolzyn Hypertonic, NAC, Atrovent, Salbutamol, Tobi, 14:00 NAC 18:00 NAC 22:00 Pumolzyn Hypertonic, NAC, Atrovent, Salbutamol, Tobi!!!

Then we went for a drive to find Ruislip Lido, I'm getting pretty good at finding my way around London without a SAT nav but I think we ended up in the right place by sheer luck this time as my directions were awful. We walked around the lido, with the pup and chilled in the sun. 1.2 miles around the lido and then we were off back to hospital for my IVs and neb.

We then headed out to lunch, I had a nice Thai chicken curry and most of a massive dessert, rock road covered cookie!! It was huge.

We went for another walk around the lido another 1.2miles and then before we knew it, it was time for Stu to head back. I was so happy to see him but he reminded me that he had Saturday afternoon or and Sunday afternoon and there was a big family get together for his brothers engagement, which I was missing this weekend so I was gutted.

So that evening I walked my friend Neil around the hospital, with his Mum Cath. He was at the hospital for assessment which went really well. I wore a mask the whole time, so I didn’t catch any nasty’s. We used to always mix pre TX which is very naughty of us and I don’t advise it to anyone, but we were always careful when it came to coughing ECT.

The Friday morning bright and early I was taken to the theatre for my third bronch. I warned them my throat was quit damaged and sore, so could they be extra careful this time. I have a large haematoma at the back of my mouth/throat. Off I went to sleep counting down the mils of propafol. I got down to 7mls!!

I woke up this time, no pain, no aches and my 02 being taken off straight away. I knew things were much better. I was wheeled back to the room; my mum was on her way. I decided I needed to get up and dressed and head to get something to eat. A vast improvement each time!!

Once I came Back I got the great news, I was going home that day!!!! My Broch was alot easier to shift and my lung function is up to 87% and 92% roughly another 10% to go but a vast improvement. We waited around for a few things and then hit the long road back to Devon, me chilling in the passenger’s seat with my sunglass’s and shorts. Home to my Husband and Puppy.

Happy Post

World!!!!! I AM HOME! (that is if the world is reading) Yes I have made it home and words can not describe the sensation and happiness that i feel. Complete again. I walked in to my house, Kia had already been dropped home by my nan and all i could here was here scratching at the front room door crazily, wanting to charge us and hug us. I opened the door and she flew out to my arms and licked my face and wrapped her body around me as much as she could trying to crawl up my body to get into my arms, more like a cat then a dog could. Kia is not a big dog and some of her behaviour is rather cat like sometimes. I picked her up and she was still trying to climb my body so she was latched around me neck. Oh I felt to happy, to know she knew me still, that she loved me and that had been waiting patiently and excitedly for me to get home. She then realised her daddy was there, who she had only seen once in the two weeks and it was now Stu's turn to get hugs and licks, she tryed to squirm out of my hands and into his, you could see he missed her to. She looks so pretty at the moment, she had a hair cut last week and its just started to settle and she is looking fab. I will upload a family photo of us when i get one.

Me and Stu then proceeded to unpack, with kia cuddles in between, we had a lush valentines meal in, all 3 of us snuggled on the sofa watching the wallstreet films. Perfect.

Before I left hospital, it was decided that since my lung function had dropped from last week, that i would have another IV drug at home along with the one i was already having, Its a long shot as it doesn't usually make much difference but hopefully it will do something. I'm now on 5 antibiotics in total. No wonder my skin is an itchy mess (I'm allergic to lots of things these days and they cause horride exma) I do not have oxygen at home, I'm not sure if i need it at the moment, we will see how the next couple of weeks go and if i start to feel like i may need it we will do another 24 hour oximitry test. So that is all for now.
