I suppose she is still recovering from the op, maybe she does not not feel like using her pooter or iPad, if she is not using her iPad I could take it off her hands, I am willing to pay postage to WA. biggrin

I think Justcruisin has her phone number. I recall her saying she'd spoken to them a few times.

 Thanks John. Realized after I posted it that you can't read the words.

By the way, that's not me leading the way. wink

Got the position of the wombat wrong - should be on its back with the legs in the air, more to the side of the road and much rounder - all puffed up so to speak (lots of experience with the poor critures on the roads around where my parents live).

Just talked to Graeme.   Della is OK, but they had a bit of a scare last week.  She had to go back to hospital for more fluid to be drained off, but did not have to stay in.

Sounds to me like she's trying to do too much, and won't rest up enough.

Della, take it easy !!!   You have to rest with your legs elevated for at least some of the time.

We don't want to hear that you've been re-admitted because you wouldn't take care of yourself properly.

Remember we're all thinking of you, and willing you to recover properly, so that you can enjoy the rest of you lives together on the road.

Cheers,

Sheba.

oh dear i am in trouble now,sorry guys ive just been realy tired so most days are spent sitting watchin
movies on the hard drive ,i also have my mum with me till monday then she has to return home as
she has a flight booked to go visit my sister in new zealand.

thank you all for worrying about me yes i did have to go to my local doc as my foot keeps swelling up
and so he thought i had a blood clot at first sent me for a scan, no blood clot thank god but he was
great and took me out the back and had to put a needle in the wound to drain some fluid,we got about
26ml out of the wound and it has started back up again.

so he did warn me that i would or could possibly have to have this done 3 to 4 times until my body stops
and starts to let the other lymph nodes take it over,it seems they are being a bit naughty .

But i am ok and honestly what a bunch of people to be ringing me and asking about me ,your all fantastic
sheba a special thank you to you for your call, jim rang me yesterday as well to see how im going he should
be setting off not real far away now sometime after march i think so will be great to catch up with him and leonie
again.

ok ill go in now on this laptop and see if my avatar works on this as it wont work on the ipad.

cheers to you all and big giant hugs for everybody.

by the way wombat you are a crack up i think when im finished with my ipad one of these days you are going
to inherit it lol .

mind you by then there will be an ipad 50 im sure lol.

stay tuned for more updates soon

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Great to hear from you Della, NOW YOU MUST TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF AND DO AS THE DR's AND GRAEME TELLS YOU.

We all want to see you back on the road again and out of that bed, but it will take time, your body will tell you when you are ready, so take notice of it, now that's an order biggrin

Della, you must look after yourself and take the time to heal properly. No gadding about looking at rigs. It's more important to get the healing done first.

We care about you, you silly girl!

Good behaviour on its way as i have to make that get together at gympie or near gympie thank you to beth for
sending me the info ,that helped a lot have a great week everybody mine will be spent watching tv as per usual
although i do have an appt at the hospital tuesday at 1.15 pm

see what they say it seems to me mostof the pain now is my leg it seems to me the feeling is like having a
realy realy tight ham string behind the knee and when i try to bend my leg to get it straight it hurts like fire

i shall speak with the doc about this as it seems all that is aiding my recovery is that, foot swells up every day
and im elevating it too.

so shall have lots of questions for him and asking what i can do about it .
