OK so strictly speaking this photo was not taken by me but I requested it. It was taken once I was back on the ward and about five hours after the 3 to 3.5 hour surgery that I had this morning which all seems to have gone well. I’m now one kidney short of a full complement but i’m also rid of the nearly 5″ tumour that had become best buddies with it. I’m very sore and not moving about too much yet and whatever happens don’t make me laugh it’s too painful haha!
