Not much walking this week
Not much walking this week
Hasn't been a great week for walking for me but I thought I should still do a post and here it is
Starting with my view for the last 5 days over the end of a hospital bed

Why in hospital you may ask nothing to major at all
I had pretty intense stomach pain for a few days are bad diarrhea so ending up going to the urgent care centre
Who told me to get to the hospital emergency room As soon as possible as I had bowel blockages and would need surgery
So that I did and hence the view above when I got to a ward
The Surgeon's that did my colon surgery last year took the lead and put off surgery instead had me on no food at all on a drip and bed rest hoping this would allow the intestines and bowels to relax and get back into shape
Because of the two surgeries last year the internal scarring and how long it took my internal system to get running again last year they wanted to avoid surgery
After 2 days they tried me on a liquid diet
Doesn't it look so yummy
Well my system wasn't ready yet with my body rejecting it at both ends so back on just the drip for 3 more days
Yesterday evening they started me on liquid diet again and so far so good so hopefully one step closer to being over this and heading home
Haven't been totally idle here been walk8ng the hospital corridors
Caught a nice sunset from the window of my room
And this morning walking the corridors saw this nice sunrise
Sure not as n8ce as my beach sunrise walks
But me being me and mr positive I took seeing the sunrise as an omen I am getting better and heading home soon
Wednesday Walk is a challenge started by me, the idea is to get out for a short walk and get some shots of what you can see within a short distance of your home office or wherever you start. And this is my entry for this week, but first, let me explain the challenge.
This is my post for the Wednesday Walk challenge hosted by myself, let me first explain the guidelines
Try and get out once a week for a short walk, can be from your office, home or anywhere really and walk for a few blocks or a few minutes looking for things to get shots of.
Your walk does not have to be on a Wednesday I just ask if possible to share your walk photos on a Wednesday.
Try and get a few shots not just one
Add a bit of a write up about where you walked
Just one Wednesday Walk tagged post a week
You can look for anything in general or decide on one subject you want to get shots off.
Make a point of looking around and up and see what you can find to get shots of that otherwise you may miss
Do a post with the shots you get on a Wednesday and tag it with #wednesdaywalk, also if you happen to join, please leave a link to your post in a comment on this post and I will try and visit them all, especially if its not one of the first 5 tags or I may miss seeing it .
Following me and re-Hiving the post so more see it would be appreciated but isn't a rule just a suggestion.
I am not strict on these rules and hence why they are called guidelines and not rules

I admire the positivity in you despite this situation. I know you are on your way to healing because of that. Thank you for being so inspiring. Take care.
And thank you
Have to stay positive or it will get to me
Get well soon!
Thanks 😊
It’s so inspiring that even while being unwell, you shared such a beautiful sunrise. Wishing you a smooth recovery, good health, and lots of happiness ahead.
Thanks kindly appreciated
Good morning @tattoodjay I'm sorry to hear that you're feeling well, and I'm praying from afar for your Speedy recovery. But I appreciate you taking the time to post. Have a great day. Thank you.
Thanks appreciated 👏
Thank you're welcome.
Ah man, I hope you can get feeling better soon. I understand about them not wanting to do surgery. My friend is in a really similar position. He had some blood flow problems to his intestines and it caused them to pull out about 50% of the small intestine just about a year ago now.
Yeah i think they did The right thing
Sure surgery may have been quicker but perhaps nit the recovery if it went sane as last year
Yeah, that wouldn't have been fun...
Hello dear friend @tattoodjay
I'm so sorry for what you're going through. I'm glad you avoided surgery. I hope your intestines return to normal soon and you can return home.
Get well soon.
Things seem to be going better today
Let's see what tomorrow brings

Hi, @tattodjay
I'm sorry for your illness. I trust you'll soon be home, fully recovered, so you can continue walking around every Wednesday, photographing your world with the usual skill that amazes us.
By the way, I loved both the sunset and sunrise from the hospital window.
Thanks
Things are going ok today a chance I may be released tomorrow to go home
Get well soon sir 🙏
Thanks 😊
Hello Mr. @tattoodjay
I hope you're feeling much better after reading this comment. I'm glad you were able to walk around the hospital and take these beautiful, colorful photographs.
Take care, Mr. @tattoodjay
Yes better this evening
Maybe a chance to go home tomorrow
Womp sorry that you have to deal with a hospital stay. Keep the positive attitude you'll get through it. I wish they had more comfortable beds in the hospital, that was the worst part of my experiences with them. I had a bout with two brain surgeries then later a hip surgery. Waiting in the bed was the worst part.
Thanks
And ohh yeah the beds glad I can now get to and go walking now and again
Feel better soon and I hope you would not need to have another surgery again this time. Always pay attention to what you eat and drink in the future to prevent same situation.
Thanks
I did ask if it was food related so I could make changes but was told it's more caused by scar tissue
I'm sorry to hear you've been this unwell! Nice view though, so there's that. May you be released very soon, and in improved health.
Thanks 😊
I hope that with this liquid diet everything will return to normal and you can go home soon, and I really hope there won't be any more surgery. Recovery is often difficult because of the scars that form inside, but you'll see how everything turns out great. The views from the window at sunset and sunrise are great... keep walking up and down the corridors! Big hug and take good care of yourself!🤗
Thanks 😊 m9ve onto a soft solid diet now and seem to be coping well maybe tomorrow I can get out if here
So be it!!! I'm sending you all my strength!🤗
Don't move to much yet. Get well! 😊
Being sensible and following Dr's advice
Oh my, so sorry to hear that happened. I think it was a good decision from the doctor to wait especially after last years surgery. Let’s hope the system starts up again and no further problems.
Sending you good healing vibes.
Take care @tattoodjay
!HUG
Things seem to be going good today
Thanks 😊
Of course you're going to get better. It's important to stay positive. I'm sending you lots of good vibes, keep pushing forward, because we're eagerly waiting for your absolutely gorgeous photos as the day begins to wake. Regards, @tattoodjay.
Thanks 😊
Hope you will feel better asap and go back walking 🤩🤩💕💕
Thanks 😊
Well not the walk any of us want to be in. Hope all goes well moving foward. At least you got a peak of a gorgeous sunrise. I hope that was enlightening for you and gave you sime positivity.
It sure did boost my mood I must say 😎
Oh hope you feel better soon Jay. Great that you are walking though hospital corridors and even catching that beautiful sunset.
Thanks 😊
Hi JJ, the good news in this situation is that you decided to go to the clinic. Had you not done so, then matters would have been much worse. I thought that they would discover that it is a hernia that causes the constipation, but not so. I am also happy that the doctor decided not to operate.
We wish you a complete recovery, and that you will soon be up and about again.
!BEER
Thanks Things going well this afternoon
So will see what tomorrow brings
Oh wow, I'm happy you are starting to keep something down! Walking the hallways of a hospital aren't much fun and the scenery doesn't change that often, but it does give you some exercise. Hope you get to go home soon and start feeling better!
Thanks 😊
Hey @tattoodjay sorry to hear of your bad health, wishing you speedy recovery from the UK
Thanks 😊
Hope you are better soon and back out on the "streets" :)
Thanks 😊
Hope you get well soon mate. You always have awesome photos but not even you can make a view from a hospital window look good but you somehow managed to do it 😃
Thanks
Do8ng better today so a chance I may get home tomorrow
Hello @tattoodjay I hope you get well soon and that you're back home soon. The sunrise and sunset photos are beautiful! Best wishes and regards 🤗
Thanks 😊
Get well soon! looking forward to your first walk outside. Beautiful sunset and sunrise.
After those days of rest, am sure your intestines are recovering well. Glad you are able to walk around which helps with proper blood circulation throughout the body.
The sunrise pictures looking superb and I love your positive attitude towards recovery.
Wishing you quick recovery and the very best :}
