Operation number 1 of 4 is on 16th June, how quick is that?
W has to be admitted on the Sunday and the operation takes place on the Monday, with a 5 night stay.
Operation is at St John and St Elizabeth hospital in St John's Wood, London.
Emotions had been all over the place at the beginning of the week, I think it had finally sunk in just what W was putting himself through and as a mum you feel all the pain!! So when W text me on Wednesday to say he had received the operation date it stopped me in my tracks...I'm fine at the moment, had a good heart to heart with the girls last night.
We have planned what we are going to do. I will be taking him then staying for a couple of days before collecting him on the Friday. Financially I can't afford to lose any income as W is going to be off work for a number of weeks and having no income at all. I will have 3 days compassionate leave, which I can't grumble my boss has been great during the past 3 years.
Emotionally this is going to be a traumatic time for me, it will be awful leaving him there. W's girlfriend is having the following week off to nurse him at home, then it will be whoever is available to call in and help him to the loo and see that he is OK.
Looking for a cheap hotel/hostel at the minute, any recommendations would be appreciated.
