Post Surgery Day 9; I was discharged.

Sorry I've been really quiet but I've been really busy in the hospital with speech therapy and also trying to move about now. Oh and I had a day with a high temperature.

The hard work was worth it. The trackie came out and I was taken out of my lovely private room and moved to a head and neck ward. I then worked hard at the ice chip technique and was declared well enough to go home. On day 9.

So I am in my own home. I am with my husband. We have both been very emotional with each other.

I've got to continue practise with ice chips and I have to practise with small sips of water too.

I feel very battered and bruised. I feel very vulnerable and emotional, but I am so glad to be home.
