Have lost 1.5 stone in hospital basically sitting and lying in a bed.

Have just spent my first day at home. Was told a week last Monday that I could go home. It's taken a week to get me home. It wasn't NHS ambulances that brought me back, but private. Meanwhile, you can go on a private ambo website and ask to hire an NHS ambulance??? Seems a well messed up system.

What really made me angry was not so much that I couldn't go home, but that there were literally people lining up in the corridors of A and E below waiting for beds, some elderly and frail.

And I sat there for a full week while an incompetent system failed to get their arses in gear and get me home.

Good that you’re home for Christmas.

Thank you everyone, bless you. Appreciate your good wishes.

I'm still bed bound, but I'm home.

I have a hospital bed in the lounge. It's not ideal, as the lounge is in the middle of a reno. It has no rads, so is cold, is half stripped, and only has two sockets, as most have been removed to allow dot and dabbing of walls.

I can't get out of bed, but I can shuffle to the commode at the end of the bed.

The ideal room was at the back of the house but the bloody bed wouldn't fit. I had privacy there and a view of the garden. And the room wasn't upside down.

Instead, I'm at the front where everyone is wandering up and down the pavement and I don't have a nice view of greenery and need curtain closed to have a tom tit.

Still, it's home!
