A week with friends

Hi my lovlies,
Another post from me today WOW!

At my new school we get three weeks Christmas holidays so for the first week I decided to go back to where I used to live to spend a week with my family and friends.

I arrived on Friday evening and spent the time relaxing.

On Saturday sophie came round to my house and we had a lovely catch up, put up my grandparents mini christmas tree and then went shopping for Christmas presents with her mum and brother.
I managed to get my cousin Emily's presents and cicelys presents.

On Sunday I met with Anna and kim and we went to town. We walked around and I bought some more Christmas presents and then we decided to get Chinese for lunch. We ended up walking all over the town to fund a Chinese which was open and In the end decided to come back later in the evening and get tesco lunch haha.
We then walked back to my house and they helped me wrap all the presents I had bought.
In the evening we went and got a massive Chinese feast and it was amazing!!

On Monday I met with Emily and we just watched Christmas films on the sofa and ate junk food which we bought from Iceland. It felt normal seeing her after so long and it really was such a good day.

On Tuesday I met with Emily and kim and again we just layed on the sofa watching Christmas films and eating junk food.
In the afternoon I went to Costa with Maddie and Collie and we had a good chat up and talked for hours.

On Wednesday I went shopping with Emily and kim to get Christmas presents.
I had no more to buy for my family so I just bought myself some clothes and make up with some vouchers I had left over.
Once we had shopped we went to nandos for lunch and it was so good.
We then rushed back home to meet Anna in town but she had forgotten we were meant to meet so we all just went home.
It was sad to say goodbye to kim as I wasn't going to see her again before I left so we had an emotional goodbye.

Thursday was my last day back with everyone so I relaxed with my family in the morning.
I went to say goodbye to Emily in Costa and it was very emotional and we cried.
After seeing Emily I went to my old school to visit everyone during lunch. I ran t meet Maddie and Collie at the school entrance and they took my to their form room to see everyone.
I saw the rest of my old school group and then I saw Anna and Avneet.
I then went upstairs to see Ronnie Vidyha and Tika who I didn't have time to see during the week as they still had school.
I also got to say goodbye to Sophie as I couldn't see her again as I was seeing family in the evening.
It was so nice to go back to my old school to see everyone.

So that's my week seeing family and friends.

Peace love Iz x

First admission at new hospital

Hi my lovelies,

At the end of November I was admitted to my new hospital for a two week course of IV's.

It was my third lot of IV's this year which for me is quite a lot as most years I've not even had IV's.

I was very nervous about how the new ward and my new cf team would be while I was in for the two weeks but overall everyone was super nice and made my stay as bareable as possible.

My LF dipped up and down throughout the stay so reckon I will need some more IV's pretty soon.

They only negative thing from my hospital stay was the long line situation.

I arrived in the evening of the first day but as it was quite late my Dr (who was putting my line in) couldn't make it as he overran with another patient, so I was given a cannula in my hand which was temp until my dr was free.

However my dr never managed to be free so I eneded up having all the junior Drs trying to put long lines in my arm instead and no offence to them but they where crap.

I could tell they where putting my line in wrong each time but they wouldn't listen to me and instead left the line in half up my arm. Each time any Ivs went up my line went bright red and tracked but it wasn't until my dr came two days later that they finally took it out.

In the end I was told that I had bad veins and that I would have to live off cannulas for two weeks and as I'm scared of needles this terrified me.

My cf nurse also started talking to me about getting a port which I think I will say yes to although I'm not sure it's needed as normally my veins are always pretty good and I have a strong feeling that it was the junior Drs fault it went wrong, but as this is my new hospital I don't really have much choice as I don't want to be prodded by needles everyday.

Anyway that's about all the bad stuff that happened.

Other than that physio was the same and they managed to find things I actually enjoyed to do (exercise wise).

I spent the majority of the two weeks lying in bed watching Christmas movies and online shopping.

School did send lots of work but I barely had the energy to move so I didn't do much.

Anyway that's basically all I wanted to say about my first stay at my new hospital.

Peace love Iz x
