You may remember that I had to go to the hospital last week because the hernia I’d been told about after my last CT scan had become infected and was hurting A LOT. After a week of antibiotics and anti-inflammatories it felt better but actually looked worse. The part that had been red and sore looked like a water blister and so, rather than poke it with a pin myself (it was sooo tempting) I decided it would be best to head back to the hospital…

Today’s Photohunter theme is “tied”.
Since I don’t tie up my cats (though I sometimes have to bundle them in a towel to give them oral meds) my thoughts naturally moved on to tied-up food. Last winter I started making roasted chickens on a regular basis – wonderful comfort food. This was the first one.

After going a whole week with the scar area above my belly button being very sore and red, I decided it was time to get it checked out. Especially as a sizable lump had appeared over the weekend. So yesterday Flor picked me up around 6pm and took me to the hospital. At first we went up to the “digestivo” ward to try and find one of my surgeons, but none of them were on duty at that time. What memories that brought back, seeing all the rooms again and the people in their beds (shudder!). After that we went over to Emergency and got on the list, then went to Nuclear Medicine to see if any of The Team were there. Imagine my relief when I saw that both Pilar and Isabel were still at work…

| You Are Fat |
|
You are by no means fat, but you are like fat in that you can easily absorb what’s around you. You are easily influenced by both the good and bad people in your life. It’s important for you to be around people you want to be like. You are a comforting and calming force. Without your presence, people feel unsatisfied. You sometimes have a reputation for being a bad influence, but you’re not nearly as dangerous as you seem. |
