That’s awesome. Healthcare workers are real heroes and deserve so much more.

Is that enough to cover your needs or would you still need help?

They really are. I remember when the anaesthetist drugged me I told the nurse I really appreciate what you do. Very corny but I really do! I also don't remember anything that happened in the hour after that! I will take their offer for the first 3 days and probably head to a GP for the other 2. I will check if they can extend their offer to all 5 days (as they suggested changing the dressing every day for 5 days)
