Made a fool of myself at Mass today.

[SauvignonBlanche]

I couldn't stop crying during a hymn and I had no tissues.

The communion hymn was one my DM loved, we sang it at DF's funeral, then again at DM's. I could do with DM's support at the moment and really felt her presence but felt such a fool crying, we were right near the from too.

Five minutes later we sang 'Be not afraid' and I realised, for the first time that I'm terrified, I'm having a brain tumour removed next week so started crying again!

I've now put a packet of tissues in my handbag and won't be going anywhere without them again!

Your post has really touched me. Personally, I think that we all go through rough patches in life, so if I saw someone crying, especially in a church, I would empathise and hope that that person's sorrow was not too deep. I will be thinking about you tomorrow, my thoughts are with you. :)

And me SB

Thinking of you tomorrow.

I cried at Mass today but it was because I'm a sentimental numpty and they played Panis Angelicus and it was the communion hymn at my wedding.

Thinking of you and sending good wishes

Another one here thinking of you SB.

Thinking of you SB

Thank you, I'm on the ward now, should be going to theatre late morning.

Thinking of you

And me

Hope all okay, SB.

Thinking of you and hoping all went well.

Well I got as far as theatre but was then cancelled as the previous patient was unwell and the anaesthetist had to stay with them, so it couldn't be helped.

I'm due to go backdown this afternoon.

Sorry to hear that Sauvignon. Hope it goes well for you today.

Sorry SB, it must be difficult to get yourself all prepared then have to do it again. Thinking of you again.

Praying for you, SB.

OP, hope second time round was your turn! Still thinking of you.

Oh no, getting all geared up ready and then stood down is hard.

Hope it's gone ahead and gone well, thoughts with you still.

Hope you're starting to recover from your op Sauvignon.

Hope it all went well and you are recovering

I'm getting there, all drips etc. out now and I'm up and about.

Brilliant news SB, hope you continue to recover well today. Just don't try singing any hymns

Good to hear!

Good news. On the other side of it now. You can concentrate on recovery.

Great news - just came back to see if you'd managed to post, so was pleasantly surprised.
Onwards and upwards!

I'm home!
I wasn't expecting that! I'd originally been looking at a Friday discharge when the op was going to be on Monday. It was out off until Tuesday but I still got home on Thursday.
It must have been all the prayers - thanks.
