Day -4: Sicko!


Well, it had to happen and today it did. I've been sick....twice to be exact. I've been feeling low level nauseaous for most of the day but I have still managed to eat and drink. I woke up feeling a bit rough and was sick right after taking the mornings anti sickness pills; charming. Not feeling up to the rigours of the hotel's full English I just had some fruit in my room before heading to the hospital. I was also sick late afternoon. I guess I should be pleased it's taken this long really. I was never going to get through the whole thing without it happening.

What this meant for me this afternoon was that I came back to my room, had a bath and took to my bed, where I've been ever since and am right now drinking a cup of miso soup. It would be nice to get through the weekend without being admitted. The kids are coming to see me tomorrow and we plan to have a wander round the zoo, which should keep my mind off things. Either that or I'll chuck up on the monkeys.

Thanks for your comments folks, it's nice to know I've got such great moral support out there. It really helps. I like the idea that I'm living trough a Carry On Movie with kinky pipes, attached to a cad (Terry Thomas most likely.) I just need to see a Doctor Tinkle and I guess we're there.

Matron!

Hi Rory

Hey the Silver surfers have mastered the technology - they will be switching their mobile phones on next! (sorry Mum aka Anne)

Hope you have a good day at the zoo tomorrow. Keep the Warriors beanie safe from tigers, wasps, falcons, sharks etc.....

Thinking of you

Love to Nikki and the kids

I'll look out for the headline "Bald Newsreader Covers Primates in Vomit" on the front of tonight's Regent's Park Mercury then.

Best of luck with everything

My password didn't work...hope it does this time. Am following your blog with great interest...we all are. It helps to alleviate the boredom of late news and puts our moaning to shame..We are enjoying the 'sootygate' sage that emerged today though. Right with you on the Ribena thing...nothing else will do..Wishing you lots and lots of luck for the transplant and sending you huge love xxxxx
