Strangeo Forum Laura Update    Malkin    Manager     8/1/2007 Dear All, Laura has had her operation, (on Monday morning) and is recovering well. She's in good spirits and is doped up to the eyeballs - which is always a good thing after surgery. CC.com is blocked by Patientline, the hospital's entertainment system, so she cannot make this post herself, but hopes that we are all playing nicely in her absence. Laura had her first go at walking again today, and although she didn't do so well cos she got dizzy, she is on the mend, and may be home by tomorrow. She misses everyone here heaps. My TCR Norns   Dreamnorn   8/1/2007 Glad to hear that she's feeling better. She seemed to be very worried when she told us about the hospital. Anyhow, I miss her too, and I hope she recovers fully soon! Hawksight   Wup   8/1/2007 I've been worried about her too. I hope she feels better, and that she's back soon! ps. I haven't played Monster Raannnrrrnnchhdoggy   Megan   8/1/2007 It's brilliant to hear that she's recovering well We're missing you Laura   christine   8/1/2007 hope she's back soon! i've been waiting patiently for her to get online, figuring she's probably on some good drugs right about now thanks for the update! I wanna be your lover, Lipstick my name across your mirror. Blood red with flaked gunshot glitter   Julia   8/1/2007 That's great. I'm glad she's feeling better We miss you laura!   Ilaezha   8/1/2007 Oh, I'm so glad she's getting better! We miss you, Laura!!   Draconorn   8/2/2007 Get well soon! ^-^ Who's going to keep an eye on us scallywags in your absence? We miss you!   Tea Queen Laura     8/2/2007 Hi Firstly, thanks for all your good wishes, I'm so glad to be back home and I missed you guys! The hospital's Internet service wasn't as great as I expected it would be. Although I do miss the nurses who looked after me, very nice, kind people. And this girl called Natasha... When I arrived on the ward on Sunday, she was there already. She's my age and has the same condition and doctor as me, so we got along well and quickly became friends. It was nice having someone there. For 3 days we were the only 2 patients in our bay in the ward, so it was all real cosy. It was a bit sad saying goodbye to her, but we're going to keep in touch. I was discharged this morning since I can now walk fairly comfortably with crutches (got my leg in plaster) and I'm over the worst with the anaestethic. Just a bit drowsy because they've got me on so many painkillers. I'm just DYING to have a proper wash, haven't been able to wash my hair since Sunday. *goes off to read all the forum posts she's missed* Nice to see a good steady stream of posting. Hope everything's been okay.   Draconorn   8/3/2007 Wheee! *tackles* Mmmkay... maybe that wasn't a good idea... Anyway, it's been rather lonely without you around ^-^   Megan   8/3/2007 Yeah, it's great to have you well and back   Sixty Third Karias   8/3/2007 OMG It's so good to have you back.. And odd to mention or think if - I myself just underwent a "surprise" scheduled hospital surgery . . . Except it was so painful I cried and held two people's hands because there was nothing to numb the pain nearby. . Probably because it wasn't needed that badly . . . looks around oddly . . Or perhaps I just never knew it would be that bad, so I never asked for any. -Karias; a bit fruity and gone bananas in the wrong climate!   Officer-1BDI     8/4/2007 I'm glad you're back home, safe and sound, Laura. I hope your recovery is swift. You have to be honest with yourself when you are writing. If that leads to somewhere unexpected then perhaps you really needed to go there. -- Jim Adkins   Tea Queen Laura     8/5/2007 Thanks again guys. I'm doing okay, though I'm finding this whole being-on-crutches-and-being-dependent-on-my-parents thing to be quite a raw deal now. I just feel fed up of having to rely on them for everyday things that I was so able to do before - getting a drink, going up and down stairs, getting in and out of bed... Even washing myself! I miss my independence so much, and it makes me feel like I'm inconveniencing them too. Not being able to do much in a leisure sense is annoying as well. Since I've been home, I've been vegetating upstairs mostly, as I have everything I need up here - my laptop, my bedroom, the bathroom - I could go downstairs and outside in the garden if I wanted to, but at the same time it's easier to stay upstairs, meaning I don't have to spend 5 minutes trying to navigate my way down and up the stairs again. To top being fed up, I also seem to be constantly drowsy, and not up to doing anything apart from moping. I'm sorry you went through such a nasty experience in hospital, Karias. I take it you're okay now though? I think I can relate. I'm on a mixture of different tablets to control my pain, but now and then, I've felt as though I don't need them all the time, because I go through periods where I'm not in any pain... So (and this isn't reccomended, kids!) I've been skipping a couple of doses. It's so deceiving though! Because I woke up this morning in absolute agony, because I'd missed a dose, thinking I didn't need it, so much pain that I was in tears. I won't be making that mistake again.
