Not just another Monday, after all

Things have happened in the last few hours, both on the health front, and my more general situation. The consultant, when I saw him this morning, was happy with the effects of my chest drain, and I am certainly feeling better than at any time in the past couple of weeks. There are still a few loose ends to be resolved, but, with any luck, I should be discharged tomorrow. There will be some outpatient appointments in due course, but, unless anything unforeseen happens, I'm hopeful that my escape will be a bit more definitive this time.
I might even be back at work next week, albeit probably only on light duties initially, and I've also had some unexpected news on that front - an e-mail from our HR people suggesting that they wanted to interview me early next week for the job I applied for two and a half months ago which, if I got it, would allow me to move back home. I didn't know at that stage about my likely discharge, so I've asked them to rearrange it for a later date, there being no immediate indication of that being an issue - I doubt I'd be at my best if I was interviewed on more or less my first day back after six weeks off, so if I can play the system a bit, to my potential advantage, then that's what I'll do. It's been a pretty difficult couple of months, so the prospect of events swinging my way a bit is welcome, to say the least.

Love & best wishes to all
