Well after 40 days and 40 nights, I have finally escaped the clutches of the Cardio Care Ward at Southampton General Hospital.
What should have been a "routine" heart valve replacement which would have seen me back home on 29 Oct, turned into a nightmare, when I ended up with 3 infections during my operation. Two were dealt with fairly quickly, but the third one proved to be very difficult to eradicate as the doctors just couldn't locate it.
Eventually after 5 weeks it was found in my left lung and so the process of dealing with it began.
Well it worked and here I am back at home!
So for the time being it will be short walks, and today it was a walk to the bottom of the garden to see what was about.
And who should be there to greet me, but the overwintering Robin. Lovely to see and time for me to buy more mealworms for "him".
Somebody was pleased to see me. Treats tomorrow I promise!!
And its the 29 Nov and there re still one or two Large White caterpillars on the Nasturtiums.
