hard not to feel guilty, about being relieved. but think its better for him to be near you at this moment in time, instead of iraq where you would both worry endlessly about the other, consolation being if he was in iraq and anything happened to kidney over there wouldn,t want him in an iraqi hospital ...jim

Once hubby gets over the shock of having to have a second op, i am sure he will see the funny side to all this ;))

I am sure that this is the lesser of the two evils. Thinking of you both and hoping everything goes well for your husband. Jean x.

I know I'd feel safer in the hands of the Docs than in Iraq at the moment :) Maybe it's a blessing in disguise :)

As many of you will remember, my Hubby was due to go to Iraq within the next few days...... well.... Does anyone also remember last year, when hubby was very poorly in hospital with his Kidney? He had an operation and all was ok.... except that when he went for his follow up appointment the consultant said they had found an abnormality on his other Kidney ( a second tube that should not be there) and The consultant was going to discuss what should be done with some colleagues.. well we thought no more about it...... then what should happen, This morning a letter arrives from the consultant , saying that there was a far to great a risk of infection leaving the second kidney as it is and they need to operate ASAP.... so.... Hubby cant go anywhere now..... brilliant!!!! but he has to have his other Kidney operated on.... Not brilliant.... oh dear.... :((x
