Like a Hole in the Head

Firstly, I wanted to say a huge thank you for all of those people who read my ridiculously long last blog post, especially those who took the time to send me messages, comments and cards. I was so touched and overwhelmed by the incredible response I received from family and friends. I felt so much better for getting it all off my chest. All your love and support has made me feel like I don’t have to hide or be ashamed and feel like a failure anymore. Thank you so much to all!

Now I promise you I will get back to food in my next post I swear. I have a perfectly perfected granola recipe to share with you, as well as telling you all about the afternoon tea Nanna, Mum & I put together for my birthday, in an event I will be calling The Great Vegan Scone Off featuring reviews of recipes from Fearne Cotton, Livia’s Kitchen and Deliciously Ella.

But this is just going to be a super short one. Those of you who read my last post will know I was going into hospital for a little operation to investigate a potential CSF leak and I just wanted to let you all know I’m in hospital and it’s all gone well.

In fact I didn’t even notice the surgeon was doing anything and chatted away about films and cake to the other doctors throughout my procedure. I’ve now got to have a ‘bolt’ in my head til at least tomorrow afternoon to see what on earth is going on in my head (I know right, what have they let themselves in for :P).

I know having a hole in your head seems like a pretty big deal but, although I do have a slightly worse headache than usual, I’m more bothered by the cannula in my hand at the moment ?

Not sure quite how I’m going to get a good night sleep whilst attached to a laptop by the head but I’m about to snuggle up with my stitch cuddly toy (Yes, I am 21 now :P) and watch I’m a celeb with a piece of my birthday cake 🙂
