Unbelievable but amazingly true.<br /><br />You are a star with Rab another star too!<br /><br />keeps coming back to the lyrics dude!<br /><br />Don't let 'em stop you from smiling<br />Just keep trying and trying<br />Sooner or later you'll find it<br />It's surprising how inspiring<br />It is to see you shining<br /><br />Much Love<br /><br />T xxTony Songhursthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11727438178278659080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2044339197163784788.post-23884534557916097082010-11-25T14:10:13.364+00:002010-11-25T14:10:13.364+00:00Phew, Carole!

Probably watched too many medical tv dramas!) but part of the anaesthetic procedure is muscle paralysis. The surgeon doesn't want the slightist twitch of your internal organs while he's poking around in them, so everything is paralyzed. It takes quite some time for them to get 'going' again, including the digestive system. Also Tramadol, Codeine and other morphine based drugs make you constipated. Yay, just what you need when everything is so sore.Fionahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04875135033312240905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2044339197163784788.post-85092385686973968922010-11-25T13:00:19.160+00:002010-11-25T13:00:19.160+00:00I'm so glad you're back home, recovering i...I'm so glad you're back home, recovering in your own surroundings it must be much better than a hospital ward.<br /><br />I am looking forward to your next update already.<br /><br />Much love as alwaysPaulahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10316264109098251662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2044339197163784788.post-85474492028165925452010-11-25T11:40:34.455+00:002010-11-25T11:40:34.455+00:00Oh my darling, darling friend!!
