thanks for the update Helen hope you are continuing to do well
Like you I am a nurse, well was nurse manager till I retired through ill health, however I too over the years have worked with 'nurss', I use the word loosely who know as much about patient care, and empathy and dignity as I know about landing a space ship on the moon!!
I think it is awful when they make people feel so bad, not very reassuring at all, and even less when they dont even know what the surgery you had entails, give me strength.
Anyway your home now so you can forget the two nasty nurses and just get better xx
