Most of you who read my blog know that my son has had an osteocondroma (benine bone tumour) on his upper and underside of his left arm. We discovered his bone tumour when he was only 7 (now 15) and had 6 monthly checks with MRI's, Xrays and CT's over the years to keep check on the growth. It was decided last month that it needed to be removed as it was stretching a major artery and putting pressure on nerves. All was booked for surgery on the 18th (last Friday) I feel I have aged 10 years the last few weeks with stress and worrying...and the feeling when the doctors finally tell you after 3 1/2 hours that the surgery went well really is undescribable! Master 15 has quite a few staples in his arm, which we have to go back to have removed in a couple of weeks. So now it's time for the recovery, no knocks or bumps, which for an active 15 year old is going to be difficult!
I had good intentions of doing lots of SKofW stitching whilst I was in hospital, but I think I unpicked more than I stitched. But after arriving home and having a good night sleep I managed to get some quilting done on one of Nal Lymer's stitcheries, which will eventually become a cover for a notebook.
So I hope to be back soon with some finished stitching to share!
