Ash is in hospital

Well a new week and i going to be on their backs about getting home sooner than later, i am going to push them hard to let me go, fu ck duty of care i need to get out of here, i will wear them down lol.
Message this morning my new train for the layout is being delived today if not home they will leave it at the postoffice not far from us, just hope i don't stop at the bottle shop lol.
My mate who picked me up Saturday and brought me back here full of beers, the tank was full lol phone me this morning to see how i was when i got back, the nurses said i was well behaved, not lol, no i was in a happy mood just getting out was the best day out in months, great for the recovery and i did't fall out of my chair lol.

Well having a bit of a upset moment on Friday has done its job, Grant the OT man bail me up as i was going to my rehab workout in the gym, said my wheelchair is ready they are hirering one first up to see how its goes before buying one and the bathroom chairs are on order, they get made for each situation and made quick, he was very friendly to me this morning said that i be home before the back step rails and door swap around be done.
So a bit of stirring the pot has pushed things along nicely and think they put Grant in his place, so the one person who was making it hard for me has been cut down to size, playing my mental head in had done its job and seems they are listening to me, fu cking about time, so hopefully be home before the weekend fingers crossed.
Debra has been given a time she be allowed home 3rd of March so if i get out soon i have some time without her, be like a holiday for me lol, but i be busy a mate and my daughter will be put to work clearing some of Debra's crap laying around the house, i be the supervisor lol.
Its now up to the other insurance to cough up some money for the things we will need, i am so happy at the moment just hope its soon, so it pays to put on a few tears to get things moving, but they were genuine tears as i was really upset Friday.

This has become my daily "Soap Opera"
Days of the Thruxton lol, sadness, humorous, upsets, dramer, putting powers to be in their place, better than Days of our lives, more exciting and always something happening everyday, wait for the movie to come out.
I am so grateful that what has happened to Debra and myself i wish it on no one, going from a full on sort of person with lots on each day, to being laid up for a few months is very frustrateing for me, boredom is my worst emeny being stuck here, once home i still need help but i have things to do but it won't be the same as before the accident my life has been turned upside down but i need to adapt and to adapt as soon as i can to get back to a near as much to life as i know it, but the next 6 months will be the hardest learning to walk again, but i am up to the task ahead of me, i have no choice but too but that is the way i am, never give up without a fight and don't let the bastards win.
Now that could be a name for a movie
"Don't let the Bastards Win".
But as i have said many of times, friendships has help me and Debra to a quicker healing, my leg will never grow back, and things will never be the same, but with help from family, friends and strangers helping i couldn't ask for more.
Being a old school biker who always gone out of my ways to help anyone, even strangers, and now i am the one who needs help and the old mates are doing their bit to help us both, the world is still full of good people, what else can i say but to get back up as soon as i can and win.
A big thank you to all my friends, here, there and everywhere.

Well i am still stuck here in rehab hospital but the socal worker was looking for me yesterday when i went out to go to the post office to pick up my parcel, my new Hornby train for my layout, when i got back she was down in the dinning room, she was asking how i was and i told her again i want to go home and i am ready to do so.
My oldest daughter has been granted a carers pension for looking after us and now she be getting the money as well extra for taking care of us in our time of need, we both need help.
So now the socal worker is going to chat with the team about getting me home, the team, fu ck just let me go home, i am not asking for much as i need to get home instead of being stuck here, i have done everything they have thrown at me here with flying colours, what else do they expect of me, more fu cking blood, longer i am here the more boredom i get and more upsetting for my mental health, i need to get home and fu ck their duty of care of knowing i be safe, i won't have any problems being safe in my own home, lived there all my life except for 5 years when i ran away lol.
No i just need to get on with my life and get home, i be right once i do and need to get home now, how long are they keeping me here, i need parole now, just need the powers to be to pull their fingers out and let me out of here, i have things to do to get my mind working again instead of being bored shitless out of my brain/mind,need to get back into my model making and doing things.

My father busted out of rehab hospital, 24 hours post op quadruple bypass surgery. 🏁

30 miles from home, he had it he would be able to walk home. 🤯
I came & got him, took him home.(sister cared for him daily)

In your case Ash, they can't keep you against your will. You know you're well enough to be self sufficient. Arrange transportation and get dressed, march on out. 👋🏻
 
What would happen if you did just wall away Ash? Lose all the benefits youre getting now? Dont know how it works in yore part of the world

I want to ho home and i can leave anytime i want, but if i do and something does happen, not that it will, but just in case i have to bite the bullet and stay put, if i leave on my terms my other recovery will become harder like getting my new leg, that i don't want to slow the process down, i want things to run smootly, 6 months o be walking again or maybe less as i am keen to learn to walk and get back on life.
Its just the OT man that is slowing down my time here getting the toilet and bath chair as well the hand held shower, i have already told him i pay for these things to get me out of here faster instead of getting qoutes to do the job, as for the shower head it take me 5 minutes to change/install it.
The OT man has had plenty of time to do this as i been here for over a month now, they say he does his job good, but i can't see that, but then he has his hands tied because of money being tight a Goverment run hospital.

Guys,
I'm here checking forum posts waiting here for the state of the union address here in the US, and am feeling blindsided by these posts! Ash, you are one of the most bravest people I've come to know through this forum. Reading all of this I'm in shock of what happened and how you're dealing with it all. My heart goes out to you and your wife in your process of healing from this shocking change in your lives. I'm floored also by the outpour of support from this group. I can't write much here because I'm still in shock of it all. I do really hope your OT man there gets you moving about sooner rather than later so you can get home soon. I don't know how you feel about bikes after this event. I hope that you won't look at your Norton differently now, let alone your Triumph. Man!...
 
Thanks Starv for your kind words, as for the bikes i still have my love of my Norton coming up to 50 years in my hands in June, i be riding it again soon i hope, the Triumph is gone the insurance paid me out.
Well some good news from the 0T man he has got onto the other party insurance and they be covering the cost for the things needed in the house and fingers cross i be home on Friday.
I finished my workout in the gym today and my trainer has given me the crutchers to get around up in my room and arpund the place without anyone beside me, i feel free already, i still use the wheelchair but now have a choice in how i get around.
So i am a happy chappy again and hopefully things will go smoothly and i be out of here and still have a short break from the wife and with help get the house in order for her return and i get to be with Millie.
I am so happy today.

Àshley
