We're back

[Diflower]

Good news and more news.
Bb was seen by first a doctor, then the surgeon who operated, then a professor, all putting in more drops, poking, examining, looking...

The good news is that the retina has successfully re-attached
The other news (refusing to say bad) is that it still needs another operation, on Thursday.
They will drain the 'heavy oil' and insert a ball, of either gas or air; the air one sounds preferable by far but obviously they will do what's best.
Even so Allesandro (the surgeon) reckons we can 'more than likely' still go on holiday.

So, up at 5 again on Thursday, arrive by 7.30 then wait.
Probably the 'posturing' - head on one side - afterwards, maybe for 5 days, deep joy.
Then a check-up two weeks later.

I now have one day to get organised

Oh I'm so pleased re the retina - phew, but a bit of a bummer that another op is needed, but then eyesight isn't something one wants to mess around with (((hug))). Not the most comfy few days ahead, but you'll help each other through, I'm sure Fingers crossed for Thursday, that all goes super well xxxxxx

Excellent news re the retina...aren't our bodies marvellous?

I'm disappointed for you that there has to be a further procedure Di....just have to keep everything crossed it goes well and you can get away xxx

That is fantastic news about the retina, but a bit disappointing about the other op. Still, if the holiday is almost certainly still a goer, that's fab news!

I will have everything crossed for Thursday!! XX

So one step forward anyway, Di, and hopefully all will go well on Thursday xxx
