We arrived early this morning to have our weekly meeting with the dialysis consultant and were early enough to feed Jasmine. After that Neil went to work and our home liaison nurse said that my training this week was about baby things, in particular going outside and having a bath (not together of course). So in no time at all Jasmine and I were kitted out with a buggy and feed, medicines and nappies.
Jasmine and I hopped on the bus (and met a lady who was very excited about Jasmine, even though she had her own big baby) and went to the city to meet Neil for lunch. I was so excited that I ended up waiting outside the office he worked in a year ago and Neil had to run across the city to meet us. We had a tasty curry lunch in Tiffinbites and Jasmine enjoyed being made a fuss of by everyone in there. Vegetable biryiani made a change from paninis. Afterwards, Neil went to work and Jasmine and I walked back to the hospital. Jasmine took the whole trip out in her stride and was the chilled baby she is always.
After lunch Jasmine and I had an afternoon nap. The nurse looking after us today organised me a huge recliner so I was able to have forty winks too. This evening, Jasmine went straight to sleep after her big day out and didn’t even mind me squirting her medicines in her mouth. She is still off dialysis whilst her surgery heals.
