And so it ends ... sort of!

After nearly nine hours in surgery, I emerged at just after 6.00pm with a section of my colon removed, and a stoma.

I am now fully awake and drinking copious amounts of water.

More news when I’m feeling better!

  17. Get well soon Bob. Part of your convalescence should include rereading the unexpectedly gently humorous and now dated comments from a different age of Donald Featherstone's convalescence chapter entitled "Wargaming in Bed" in his Solo Wargaming book.
