I am so happy and relieved to report that my sister (Sona) is feeling so much better today as far as the wind pain is concerned. So Thank you all for your wonderful advice, (again). I think I would panic if I had not received any comments from you, Panic-me-nooooo-never lol.

I think I have been more hungry today, or hungry on a more regular basis. it seems I eat my normal half a cup then an hour later I feel my stomach rumble again, the soup is going in but not staying lol.

I removed my main dressing today and had a proper shower it was bliss, but I have noticed I have a stitch poking out through my wound, if it's soluble then no problems, however if it's not then I don't know what to do about it, I will ring in the morning to see what I should do, Fingers crossed it's soluble!!! I don't fancy the long drive there just to get that sorted. Other than that my war wounds look very good, A bit itchy but that is to be expected as they are healing.

I wanted to try and describe how the band feels but the closest I could get to doing that is 'imagine the feeling of wearing tight trousers when you have had your Christmas dinner' it's like being tied up across your stomach.... this made me think how stupid I am as that is exactly what the band is lol oh well.

I spent the day with my sister as the kids were at school and Steve was at work, we didn't do anything except watch tv. we don't get the opportunity to do nothing often so we are making the most of recuperating, both still in our pj's, Well I have got to get my monies worth out of them as they are new (don't ya know) and hopefully they won't fit for long.

So that's it in the world of the Banded sister's......For the moment........
