Covid and my surgery

I’ve just gotten a phone call confirming my surgery for next month. Which is great. The woman I spoke to said ud I get covid-19 between now and my surgery it’ll be put offfor 7(!!) weeks. Which would be a horrible wait!

I’m not that sick at the moment but I am very slowly getting worse with each passing day/week and really don’t want to put off any longer…. And I want to make sure I have as little time off work as pratical too.

Surgery Dates

I should be having my surgery on Monday the 5th of September, which means I’ll be going into hospital on Saturday the 3rd and coming back home sometime at the end of the week/the following weekend if all goes well! I am a bit disappointed it’s not going to be this month as I do want to get it over and done with asap but the start of next month could be a lot worse!

I am currently planning on taking the week before hand off, so that I reduce the chances of me getting sick with a cold, the flu, or covid and spend the whole week at home basically… The last thing I want at the moment is to have my surgery postponed because I’ve caught something else!

“The Travelers”

I’ve been stuck at home sick over the long weekend, (and I’m still at home today but should be back at work tomorrow at least). I’ve manged to binge watch “The Travelers” on Netflix, which is odd as normally I never binge watch anything no matter how much I’m enjoying it. I’ve been getting through three episodes a day and I’m sad that I’m finishing the last episode now…

I watched “Stranger Things” very quickly too but that was only eight episodes long and I was only watching one in the evenings. Even with the first season of “Heroes” I was only watching one to two episodes a night and I was getting a little sick of it by the end.
