Received a letter this morning. Mixed news naturally - since her fall she says she's had a lot of aggro and feels a bit like a salmon struggling upriver and her telephone/online comms are U/S basically. She sounds fairly positive on the whole although she's going in for another op on 1st October (still with the fistulas but this is hopefully to sort them permanently). Her cousin Georgie is coming up to look after her for a week after the op.
She says she misses everyone and to send you all hugs and kisses. She hopes to get back on the forum when she can after her op - she still has to use the library one for now and she's not had a lot of spare time for that as she's been promoted in her charity job (Save the Children) and they keep sending her to seminars. Says she's getting to be an expert on Travelodges and now knows why they're so inexpensive
Also that she's grown gills and webbed feet they've had so much rain up there... 
That's it more or less - she says the forum keeps her sane (there's a first
) so we've not got rid of her and will see her again once she's got things a bit more settled.
