Look how pretty they are

Look away now if you're sqeamish

Although it's probably a bit late now.  3 holes in total.

Home

The operation was successful and was back home by about 9pm.

It was a long day though, check in was at 7:30.  I was last in line and only got in the theatre a little before 1pm.  The surgeon found a little extra damage whilst poking around in my arm so he fixed some of that whilst he was there.

I'm going under

Live blogging from my hospital bed. 

I've been here since about 7:20 this morning but still not in, but have just seen the doctor and I will be put under in the next 20 mins.  Wish me luck!

What do you think the chances of me getting away with this are?

  No house work and looking after the baby for me after the operation.

Too honest

For some reason you get £100 cash back from BUPA when you have a child.  I used Lloyds Bank's automated cash machine and nearly got an additional £800.  I didn't chance it and put in the correct figure.

Wish me luck

My brother kindly sent me this earlier in the week.

She does like her box

Operation confirmed

I'm booked in for my operation next Friday.  No time yet but he said he'll fit me in.  It'll be under general anesthetic and will be two parts.  One keyhole bit in my shoulder where he finds then reattaches my tendon, then another incision to my bicep to put it back in the right place.  Wish me luck.
