Tim - Latest

I got up later than usual, considering I'm on night shifts, today at around 16:00 and immediately felt guilty as I had wanted to phone Tim before he went into hospital for his cranioplasty tonight. I called him once I was fully conscious and the call went through to voicemail, so I left a message and then sent him an email.
He phoned back a little while later and explained that he hadn't gone into hospital yet, he was just in the shower when I had called.
He is not going to the hospital until first thing in the morning, and by first thing I mean he has been told to be there for 06:30 not nice, especially when you are not used to getting up that early.
He should be in hospital until the 19th and then is due to have his stitches out on the 24th (which seems very quick to me). Hopefully all will go well with the procedure. I feel guilty too because he is going into hospital all on his own, no one will be with him, at least initially. I don't finish work until 07:00 tomorrow morning, but he did say that it may be better that he is alone. I've asked him to let me know when he knows the time of his operation, if he is able to that is. I know I shall be worried until I hear he is out of theatre okay again.
Fingers crossed.
