Part 12 - Me n my bonce
So the comfort of my own room, what was the first thing I asked mum?! Please can you shave my legs! Without hesitation she grabbed a sick bowl with water in, my shower gel, got a towel off my nurse and my razor! Goodness how awkward is it when someone else is shaving your legs but you can't move them! Quite pedantically I pointed out the bits she missed! I'm surprised I didn't have black eyes to add to my list of ailments! I would have if I was her! Hhhhmmm now what! Oh could you paint my toenails please?! Mr Chandler said I could! Mum obliged again whipping out my nail polish she had been carrying about for a few weeks! (No wonder why women's bags are so heavy, we carry everything around in it! Either that or my mum was impersonating Mary Poppins!) I felt proper pampered! Anyone reading this who is a beautician take note you should seriously do or think about setting up a mobile business in hospitals! Just thought I'd put there out there! They seem to have hairdressers but no beauticians and I would have loved to have my new found hairiness tamed! They would have made a fortune from me alone! 7.30pm the time of day I hated the most - handover time! What nurse am I getting? Do they look nice? Will I like them? Will they answer my buzzer? Really worried but trying to stay brave I said goodnight to my mum and dad! Reminding them as they went it was only 18 hours until visiting time! And boy did I count every minute! My room also had a TV! Cor what should I watch first?! Earphones plugged in (lucky mum had kept these in her handbag waiting and I think secretly wishing I wanted my iPhone to listen to music) dad got me a TV card I would be well set! Balancing my yankeur and call bell I could just about lift my arm to turn the channel over as it was touch screen! Sometimes I couldn't lift my arm up to turn it over so would end up just watching anything! After all I hadn't seen anything at all for weeks sure it wouldn't harm me! I wonder what had happened in Eastenders? What was happening in Corrie? You know what people were in bloody hospital! Phil had been in a car accident looking as beat up as ever! Nick from Corrie was also in hospital after a car accident, with blooming brain injury! Both had the same gown on as me ggggrrrr that's the last thing I needed was to watch people in hospital on TV in hospital! I will stick to films! So I did and my first night I watched the film Red with Bruce Willis! Pretty good I liked it, now what?! Another film oooohhhh the end of Demolition Man! Now able to tell the time too only through the use of sky news channel! Wow I must go to sleep it was really late and my eyes stung from watching TV again! Only 12.5 hours to go till mum and dad were back!
