The Arrival-Wednesday 29 September

The day I turned up at the Epworth, did the paperwork and bedded down in my room with a view over Fitzroy  Gardens to the west. The place where I would be confined and cared for by the nursing staff for the next 10 days.  The next day, in the morning the surgeon would visit, I was prepared for surgery and wheeled up a couple of floors to the surgeons theatre, a place of intense physical and mental activity.
