Surgery--Again

Here's hoping that Roberta is feeling a bit better by now and will be back up and about soon.

too!

Any woid re the Boid?

No word? Nobody able to speak with Boida or heard anything?

Hi Deb...will call as soon as I get back from work in a few hours.

Kewl.

Time differences. Make life hard.

Hopefully da Boid is roosting.

Mind you, it's her normal peak activity time

What a nice bunch of people you all are.

(((((((boida)))))))))

Joe((((((((((((((((((the rest of you lot))))))))))))))))))))))Nation

No woid with the Boid on her direct line so I'm thinking the goil must be nesting right now. I let it ring for about 2 minutes and then thought... dayum, she'll be saying "I'm asleep already!" I could almost hear her kvetching about the noise from here

I did speak to another verra nice nurse at the station again tho and our Boida is still there.

Will try again in a couple hours...

((((Boida))))x

Thank you Izzie.

DId the nurse let you know how our Boida is?

Yes thank you!

(apols... had to zzzz)



Just spoke with our BOID!

Ah, bless her... the asthma is not so good right now and they are giving her lots of meds other than the steroids. Gosh, she sounded so much louder than the last time I spoke to her, but in real terms, still very quiet tho. She's very breathless and tired. I asked if she was in a room by herself and she, in Boida style, said "I should be so lucky"...

The noise is getting to her as it was like last time - lots of other people to-ing and fro-ing and noise all around. She says they are taking care of her and they're nice folk, it's just "the noise"; she's not been able to sleep but they're giving her something to try and help with that now too.

She also said to say hello to everyone and really, how much it means to her that folk are thinking of her. She's happy for anyone to phone but if she doesn't answer then she'll either not be able to at that time or not up to talking to folk. But yes, folk can call if they wish to. (212 562 8845)

She doesn't know how long she'll be there and there's no plan for discharge at the moment. It's tiring being sick and I'm feeling she's really fed up with the whole palava. Yep.

Can't tell you the relief it is when you can hear a voice on the end of the phone... it was sooooo good to hear her. It's good to know that she's in safe hands there. Phew again.

Putting the hoper up high for a speedy recovery... and breathe.

Thank you MzIzz.

Great (or, as great as can be expected right now)!

Thanks for the update, Iz.

Thank you so much, Izzie.

Hmmm. Wonder if ear plugs would help. Not that I could rush them right over to her. But they might have some in the pharmacy..??

Reading along and wishing her the best

Great.....well, great you got her. Herself sounds not so great. I do hope theyncan getnher some sleep already!

Greatly appreciate the update. Hopefully she can get out of there soon and back home away from the excess noise.

Worst thing about hospitals - the noise (or one of the worst!)

I was very glad of my MP3 player when I was last in... some quiet music drowned out some of the other crap.

Fingers crossed for Roberta

Thanx muchly for the update, Iz. I think 'Boita knows we're all thinking of her.

Just tried calling...no answer.

Hopefully she's asleep.

Or off having stuff done, which is more likely I guess.
