Friday 11th June 2004
Mr Bem visited me this morning and said I could go home (AT LAST!). My brother Peter is coming to collect me after work. I spent morning watching third test (cricket) on television. After lunch I popped across to the Head and Neck Support Group. A social worker called to see me pm and filled in all the forms for me then said she would fax them to the relevant dept in Lancashire. Peter came for me about 4 pm and told me that they had agreed that I should stay with my sister Louise until I felt able to cope. When I got home I felt tired and really drained. It was nice not to sleep in a hospital bed, although I did wake up several times not sure where I was! Although the hospital food was not too bad, it’s nothing like home cooked food.

I must say at this point A BIG THANKYOU TO ALL THE NURSES AND DOCTOR for the expertise and kindness during my stay in hospital.
