Very fitful nights sleep. Tried some toast for breakfast, took three bites - had enough, tried to drink some tea, couldn't get much of it...
Was told that the drains were doing their bit but not a good enough job from bladder as I'm not drinking enough fluids...
My stomach looks massive and my hands are as swollen as I have ever seen them. The surgeon is not overly concerned about the pain in my back even though it is stopping me breathing properly at times... Prescribed more painkillers, in addition to the morphine I am in control of...
As the day wears on the pain in my back gets worse, forgot what dinner was, tried it, ate a bit. Hands and stomach are really swollen now...
Tea was a similar affair, in fact the only thing I could stomach was water...
As day ran into night I was in absolute agony with my back - the nurses did all they could to ease it, sometimes it worked and sometimes it didn't...
Wednesday was the worst nights sleep I've had in forever. I didn't really want Mum and Rebecca to come and see me like this but they did...
I really couldn't see a way forward. The pain was too much...
