Nil by mouth

Number of sleeps remaining: A couple of hours if I'm lucky

10 hours to go...

So I'm now 'nil by mouth', don't think I could stomach anything anyway.

I can honestly say these last few weeks have felt like living hell - I hope, dear reader, that you never have to make this kind of decision.

When Hubby left the hospital, he said 'goodbye' to my left ear (or my left hearing aid) - that started the tears, just when you thought you are all cried out, there are always a few more waiting. However, he was right, my trusty left hearing aid has served me well - it has let me feel like part of the hearing world.

Oh, and another thing - my hair is being shaved off in the morning.
