It would appear the hair cut from Isabel has gone down very well with some of the staff. One nurse who had not seen me for a while, after being in the room for about 10 minutes proclaimed ‘I didn’t notice your hair had gone’. She said that because it had got gradually shorter last weekend she had thought nothing about it. She then asked if Isabel had done it and I said yes. The reply was “she is a very bright lady, you should keep her”… Which I plan to do…
The senior consultant however said I looked like a city banker with this hair cut - I did not ask if it was meant as a compliment. As for the hair, there is still some there but you have to look closely to find it.
Medically nothing has changed from yesterday… just wait and see…
The nursing staff are surprised when they come into the room at the minute because it is decorated in Union Jack bunting, with a large union jack flag draped on the TV that I don’t use. Thanks to Amanda and Isabel for that, I know it was a bit of a joke to start with but it does actually cheer the place up. I also have a large box of sweets with the picture of a beef eater and Union Flag , thanks Karen - it helps with the theme. Finally I also have the Royal paper cups with the union flag and a crown on it. I’m sure there will be some pictures in the next couple of days going up…
Mum and John are travelling down from Scotland today - if they arrive in time I will see them for half an hour tonight - otherwise they are with me all day tomorrow.
