    Hi Lee,

    Not sure how long to wait for a bath.I am a shower lover.Talking of which I had my first shower today since my op.It was ok but the problem being is that we still have a shower over the bath so I have to step in and out of the bath.Getting out was the worst as I always get out facing the other way and I got 1 leg in,1 leg out and then I got stuck fir a minute.I have staples which are due to be taken out on Weds

      good luck for wed - God knows what's keeping my scar closed

      I keep dropping lots of things round the house and my Dad has to go round collecting them all up again.

      I could do with a litter picker.I have a curved walking stick which is handy to pick certain things up like clothes or hooking up thin cables like phone charger cables.Walking stick comes in handy for for turning on plug sockets as we always turn ours off.
