I thought Id do a post about diet, as it’s one of the questions I get asked a lot… What can you eat? In the long term, Im advised that I’ll be able to eat what I like within reason. That I will find my way with foods that agree with me and foods that […]
I think in general I am a fairly positive person. I really try not to wallow in self pity and I always try and find the silver lining. Not always of course, but on the whole I really try. I’m struggling at the moment. I want to shout and scream like a toddler. I want […]
Hello everyone I thought Id do a little update, later when I’m fit and well I’m planning some posts, vlogs and helpful stuff re stomas and ileostomies etc I’ve also had some amazing offers to do some work and events to raise awareness and money so I’m very excited. But I’m still recovering and so […]
I’m sorry to have to blog such a negative piece today but I need to be talking about the negatives as well as the positives. As I have said many times so far, my care experience has been amazing. The nursing and care support have been just fantastic and I am a huge supporter of […]
Brought to you by the letters T.I.M & M So Day 2 after surgery and Mrs C is well on the road to recovery. The surgery all went as planned and after a short stint in the HDU Sam was back on the ward. Today she’s in good spirits but is having a few bag […]

I’m afraid there’s not much to tell today. I can’t really think of anything inspirational, interesting or witty to say!! That’s the worst thing about being in hospital I suppose, there are days where all you can do is swallow the meds, take the injections and rest. I’m no better and no worse today – […]
Day four didn’t start well, I was up late last night and then very early again this morning on the toilet. Not feeling great at all but the one saving grace is that on a gastro ward there is no embarrassment of bum noises as we are all as bad as each other!! I’m really […]
Day three in the Big Brudder house… Man, I can’t even do accents when I’m writing them down! Yesterday ended with a visit from Corinne which was lovely and then hilarious chatter with the other three ladies on my ward. One lady has some dementia issues but had this moment of clarity that was so […]
