I had a call from Natalie, one of the stoma team here on the Island the other day. She has been talking to Lynne about possibly getting the surgeon to see me earlier than September. They are of the opinion that it would be a good idea to get the hernia repaired as it seems that all the discomfort and pain I am getting is to do with the hernia and not to do with the stoma. (Apart from the paralysed intestine agony that is!)
I said that I would like them to see if they can bring things forward as I really want to get back to work as soon as possible; having been measured up for the hernia belt I am waiting for it to be returned so I can hopefully get working again. The belt may be enough but a repair would definitely be better in the long run.
We have some friends staying with us for a few days and the weather is crap but compared to some further north who are suffering from flooding, no fresh water and no power we are very lucky. If you are one of the people who has suffered in the recent floods we feel for you.
