It’s amazing what a couple of good night’s sleep can do. After posting that I was feeling a bit rubbish and I hadn’t sleep, I managed to sleep from 23:00 until about 10:30. Hallelujah!!! I also managed to sleep well the next couple of nights, including last night and it really does make ALL the difference.

I also had my staples out yesterday, all 22 of then. Only 2/22 of them pinched a little and it only took 5 minutes.

I am still getting quite tired, but I am managing on just paracetamol as pain relief. My wound isn’t sore all the time, but just when I do certain movements. The hardest bit for me is still getting in and out of bed, where I have to do a sort of rolling technique to avoid using my abdominal muscles too much.

I also got some lovely sunflowers from my friend yesterday and some gorgeous HotelChocolat chocolates from my sister. What a lucky girl I am!!!
