What a day :oops: 8-)

Woke up to one of the alarms beeping, but didn't have time to play with it.

Off to hospital - early, to miss the traffic. Then had to wait nearly an hour and a half to see the lovely Dr Paulo. I had to stand the whole time :( He's all for me going ahead with the op, but I need to see Dr Gomes Ferrerra, who did the first op. But, he's maybe retiring at the end of the year :o But here's a letter to take over to the other clinic, to make an appointment.

Meanwhile - the Glad bag saga. The government aren't paying their bills :evil: :evil: so lots of people are without stuff, not just us.

But, I saw a nurse, who is involved in the ileostomy side of things - a new project, and she will give me the address of the new association - who will help me with bags :D :D :D

Saw her, got that sorted, then over to the other clinic.

And the young lad there wouldn't make an appointment with the surgeon until later in December :oops: once it was sorted, was he staying or not :roll: :roll:

Got home and tried to sort out the alarm - Grumpy and I got divorced at least 3 times :lol: :lol: :lol: 8-) - the booklet was thrown across the lounge :lol: :oops: and the outside alarm went off :lol: :lol:

I went off down to the village, to try and get some batteries for it - no joy, so had to go to Olhao :oops:

And the problem? One of the detectors :lol: :lol: :lol: :oops: :oops:

For which we do not have any batteries - but we managed to turn off that annoying beep beep beep :P :P 8-)

But the bestest thing - a smelly parcel arrived from Spain :P :P :D :D :D

Good for her Saundra xx

It is a big decision, but if it all goes pear-shaped, we can always have another stoma 8-)
