Day Thirteen

Unlucky for some maybe.... but not Jules! Her white cell count has increased to 3.5 ... and everything else "on the up" ....

Today she ventured out of the ward ... for the first time in 13 days .... and we went down to the Cafeteria in the main entrance to the Marsden .... just for some people watching ... and a change of scene....

Later back in the ward Jules asked me to call the nurse ... and so .... for some reason ,without really thinking.... I pressed what I thought was a call button.... hmmmm .... well a buzzer started going and then nurses started running in from everywhere .... seems I managed to press the emergency call button, and they thought Jules was having a cardiac arrest.... that livened up the day a bit....

The consultant was around today and thinks that Jules will probably be able to leave the hospital on Monday or Tuesday..... provided everything continues to improve as it has for the last two days..... Im sure it will!
