Sleep still getting interrupted but it is getting better. Am able to be horizontal in bed now (instead of sleeping sat up) so that is helping a great deal...
The scars are healing really well, very itchy at times though...
Managed to do just over a mile on this mornings walk, really well pleased with that...
Rachel and Wayne came visiting this afternoon and after a while wanted to walk to Tesco. I joined them, counting it as my afternoon walk.
Ended up doing just a touch under two miles. That really surprised me!!
Went up to #mums for a shower and noticed a lump on my left leg, near to the harvest site - must keep an eye on it...

Another night of interrupted sleep, but not too bad, still got the odd tickly throat. Wish it would do one... Getting the odd pain in my leg around the harvest site.
Will be glad when I can stop wearing the anti-embolism stockings...
Managed to crack the half mile 'barrier' today. Hoping to do it again later...
Ended up only doing the one walk today but was pleased to have done the distance I did...

Had a good nights sleep, only woke up once and that wasn't until near 05:00...
Done a walk this morning, nearly made it as far as the doctors, it's a start...
Chest still hurting when I cough and sneeze but not as bad as it has been...
Bumped into our Steve (cousin) on the walk, was good to see him...
Nodded off after dinner for a little while then did the second walk, nearly managed to get half mile done, speed, distance and time increased but not by a big margin...
Recovery appears to be going well..
Keep getting a dull ache in the harvest site on my leg but don't think it's anything to worry about...

Great to wake up in my own bed but had a very fitful disturbed sleep...
Had a great morning...
After dinner I went on my first walk, made it as far as Mark Jarvis bookies on Lordens Hill (about 900 yards there and back)...
Then Phil picked me up and took me up to mums...
Was good to see our Spadge (great-niece) up at Mum's, she kept looking at the scar on my arm (she's only five!) and then poking it gently, but not enough to hurt me...
When Phil dropped me off I did a second walk and this time went up Leopold St to the Spar and back (about same distance as earlier)...
Took it steady on the way up and back...
Good to get two walks in after all that time spent in hospital...

Doctors have been round this morning and said that, pending the result of a blood test, I may be allowed home later today. Just need someone to come and take my blood now. The quicker they take it then the quicker it can be processed and the quicker I can get home...
The cold that I caught isn't doing my chest any favours at all. Every time I sneeze it hurts but it is getting better...
Really need to be home so I can get the ticker working again. Doctor also said he'd prefer if I had an MRI but that wont be happening soon so it might be a camera down my throat and possible surgery to remove my gall bladder...
They will recall me in a few weeks. The heart is the priority at the moment...
Dinnertime has been and gone and no one has been for my blood yet. Karen (staff nurse) said that she was going to chase it up and see what's happening...
Came and took my blood at quarter past one - fingers crossed that the results come in quicker and everything is still improving...
Been told I can go home today as soon as my meds come from the pharmacy. But got to come back in a few few weeks for a follow-up and possible gall bladder removal...
Philip came and picked and brought me home - hopefully get a good nights sleep...

Not a bad night, woke about 3:00 and it took a while to get back to sleep, but that's about normal for me...
Had another cooked breakfast, this time it was bacon, beans and toast...
Doctor has been and again again mentioned that they might want to take my gall bladder out. He also said that if my liver functions are ok then I might be able to go home tomorrow...
Dave and Karina came to visit me this evening - apparently it took Dave a half hour to find the ward.!!!! It was good to see them both, and an enjoyable visit...
Still hoping to be going home tomorrow, fingers are crossed....
Need to start walking again so I can get to some sort of fitness level...
