Hang in there Cofty. Thinking about you today. Best wishes, and hoping positive vibes will help you. I know they say mentaloutlook actually helps quite a bit with the treatment, so here's hoping all our well wishes help you to feel cared about and loved, and that in turn kicks cancers ass.

Operation went well. Pain is minimal. ln a room of 6 lying listening to Alison Moyet on my headphones. I was told to expect to be in 7days but consultant said tonight that if chest xray is good in the morning I can go home Sunday. Both lungs partiallly collapsed but looking much bettter on latest xray. Very little air now in chest drain. I stopped using morphine 7 hours ago and can still breathe deeply with only slight discomfort.
2 hourly obs all night is not conducive to sleep. Neither is snoring farting man opposite!

Here's to hoping you get home Sunday! I hope the pain meds continue working well for you.
Hopefully the farting man will go home sooner!

Delighted to hear it Cofty
Hopefully Alison Moyet is drowning out the snoring farter..
Excellent that you are progressing so well without morphine. Fingers crossed that your xray is clear in the morning and you can go home and recuperate - you'll need it to catch up on the sleep you are missing with the wake up every 2 hrs.

Cofty,
Glad you can breathe deeply, but maybe you can ask a nurse for a gas mask?!!
Hope you feel better and will be home by Sunday!
