Operation Three

On Wednesday I went into ward a3 at Addenbrooks hospital, Cambridge.
Again the operation had many risks and there was a possibility of having to cut through the oral palate and risk of tracheostomy etc.

Operation took about 4 hrs.

I cannot remember anything since my op until today so Julie is updating these days.

Paul came back to ward a5 after his op. He had a drip and oxygen. He was very drowsy but knew where he was and able to hold short conversations.
Mr Mannion came to see him said op had gone well but small hole had been made in dura(outer lining of brain) so more prone to meningitis.
