Hanging Out

[poliphilo]

There's a two and a half hour gap between the two visiting sessions- and it doesn't seem worth getting on a bus to come home only to turn round and catch one right back- so I've been hanging out in and around the hospital. Yesterday I went to Tesco's just down the road, did some light shopping and had a cup of tea and a doughnut in their cafe. Then I went and sat in the hospital's fountain court- in the sun- and did a crossword puzzle.

The Royal Oldham Hospital is huge. Wandering round it, out of visiting hours, you see very few people. It's like a very quiet village. Over the years I've got to know it well.

Ailz goes for a scan this morning. She rang earlier- and they were in the process of taking the canula out of her arm. I don't think they'll be keeping her much longer.

I do hope she's safely home soon. Thinking of you both.

Thank you.

Hope all goes well and she's home again, soon.

It's good to hear Ailz was scheduled for the scan quite quickly.
Being home will be a relief for both of you.

Apparently they don't have staff in over the weekend who are competent to run the machines.

I'm hoping she may come home today.

I hope that the scan reveals nothing untoward and that Ailz will be safely returned home later today.

Thanks. I'm hoping that too.

As always, my thoughts are with both of you. I can see that you miss her.

Thanks.

I hope she's back by the time you read this!

Sadly not. We're still waiting for the results of the scan she had this morning.

I hope Ailz came home ...but if not I hope tomorrow's the day. We hope the news was good.
