Eril's op tomorrow..
Permalink  

Following sciatica type pain since May the GP and Eril tried acupuncture, exercises, heavy pain killers etc until a MRI finally showed a cyst around L4 & L5. Eril had one on the opposite side 5 hears ago around 9 months after her double knee replacement. It seems it's sister had decided to appear!!

So, tomorrow I have to have her at Melbourne's Coburg John Fawkner pvt hospital by 8 am. Bar an emergency Eril is second cab off the rank so should be out of recovery in time for me to get home in daylight. Fingers crossed. Have to leave a bit after 6!!! omfg.gif

Looking forward to her recovery to get away for some breaks.biggrinbiggrin

Hope all goes well Paul, although as for getting away for a break, how are you going to tear yourselves away from those cute grandkids??

Cheers
Joe
