Birthday Boy

Big brother reaches 60,good grief who would believe that the way he goes up hill!!
As Val said, not quite the way to spend it.The meals on hold Dave.
We visited today armed with all the cards and messages and read them to Dave,thanks to all of you for those,we do appreciate all your support.
In the early hours of this morning Dave had further surgery,which involved returning to the earlier op site to collect a sample for testing,due to an infection.This will be cultured and could take 72 hours to get a result.From this they hopefully will be able to find the correct antibiotic to use.Mean while he is on life support so we are back to the position we have been in before,but once again the surgeons are doing their utmost.They will slowly start to reduce sedation as before so it will be a while before we know how Dave is doing.
This experience I liken to the game Snakes and Ladders we used to play together,I`d get almost to the end then that horrible long ladder would take you nearly back to the beginning but the challenge was to climb up again, so here we go!!
By the way, Dave is now wearing a lovely white turban with red writing on which says NO BONE FLAP this is a piece of bone that has been removed to be replaced at a much later stage. Once again thankyou everybody.
