THANK YOU. That's all I can say right at the moment, because frankly, I am staggered by the sweetness and the care and the love and the messages and the general well wishyness that you've all shown since my enforced stay in hospital. One only finds out how much one is loved when something like that happens.

So thank you.

I will be replying to every message tomorrrow, but today, I'm shattered. Anyone who has spent time in hospital will appreciate how little one can sleep and i slept less than normal. Every beep or person walking past (arent they supposed to wear soft shoes at night? Not fucking clogs) woke me up.

anyway - for now - short story is that they don't know what it is, but it's improved from yesterday and the doctor anticipates a full recovery in a month or so - although i can take many months. Tehy need to rule out stroke entirely (mri) and check my cholesterol (which is probably through the roof) andMS (which it could be, and I have family history) but there's a lot of good news too. Will post much more fully tomorow. Right now I'm being smothered with Snucius Love.

I think they missed me. :D

Go to bed, go straight to bed, do not pass computer, DO collect 200 winks.

We'll see you online tomorrow, then, with luck and a following wind!

I think you're the only person I know who would break out of the hospital to go home and feed the cats. Though if Spenser needed his insulin and there was no one handy who'd give it to him, I'd probably do the same... SO good to see you back!

*clings to you too* I missed you and I don't even live with you so god knows what the moggies felt like. I thought they'd do an MRI whilst you were in. *tut tut* Why did they not check your cholesterol yet also. *taps foot* (Speaking of footwear...I wear DM shoes now...which are a little noisy at night but because I haven't been wearing them...that's why I have plantar fascitis but that's enough about my stinky feet)

Anywhore, get to bed...it's late and ewes needs sleep. *sends Aleksandr round with a spare dressing gown*

Oof. Hospital stays are invariably stressful ordeals, whatever the circumstances. Glad you're home and at least heading toward an answer.

Ack! I somehow missed all of this! ::hugs tight:: *You* simply must be fine because otherwise who will my "Ultimate Idol of Coolness and All That I Want To Be" be??? Those things all sound like they should be on the List of Scary Stuff. I shall keep my fingers and toes and appendages crossed for you! I'm glad you're back home, though! The last time Hubby was in hospital, he'd manage to fall asleep just around the time they came to check his vitals. Ugh.

Good to hear you're back. I intended to send you texts etc. but a) forgot to program your number into my phone, and b) didn't think you'd really be very amused by my ramblings about dangerous goods (which is mostly what's been going round in my head since Monday after work-course!)

Oh my heavens, this is the first I'm hearing of it -- I'm so glad you're home, and I hope it turns out to be nothing much whatsoever. *hugs you tight* Take care of yourself! And if there is anything I can do to help, please let me know.

Feel better, hun. I am experiencing my own medical mystery at the moment, one of the possibilities being bandied about is MS (also a family history) so I know exactly what you are going through.

Take care and rest well. For diversion I heartily recommend the new Sherlock Holmes adaptation by Steven Moffat and Mark Gatiss, if you are allowed to watch telly (BBC1).

I'm so glad to hear that you're back home and that you're expected to make a full recovery. Those are both very good things.

I hope a little sleep and some healing cats are all it takes.

*SO* happy that you're home, honey. Here's hoping that they have some answers for you soon, and that those answers are good ones.

Nothing like a good old fashioned wake-up call, is there? Had one myself, almost seven years ago. Sometimes it's the only way we can be made to see what we're pretending to not know about is actually real.

I'm very glad you're home again (with cats, yes! and can get some sleep, god, I hate that about hospitals).

I hope, when they get around to doing all the tests that you'd think they could have managed in the time they had you, that the problem proves to be a small one, simply handled. But if it's harder than that, pay attention! You can get it under control (*crosses fingers*).

Take it easy, enjoy the cat!snuggles.

Oh, Erastes!
Had no idea until now - slack b* that I am in checking my f-list.
Sorry to know you've been through such a nuisance time.
Hope it's something non progressive and manageable.
Welcome home and take it easy (well - if it's the sweet urine sickness perhaps not - in that case walk girl!)
Live long and prosper.
Finally. Don't worry about individual response. Will keep ear closer to ground in future. Well, that's the intention.
All the best.
