Thanks for everyone's well wishes. My tonsils are now back to normal, its my Dad that has had all the drama with his health this week...
He had a couple of funny turns last weekend and then a couple more on Monday, which resulted in him having to call an ambulance Monday night after spending 3 hours unconscious on the floor. The police also attended as the ambulance was delayed & when the paramedics arrived, they thought he may have been suffering from a series of mini-strokes. So I went over to stay with him that night & the next day he had a scheduled appointment with his renal consultant. The paramedics said that we should tell the consultant what had been happening which we did & he thought Dad may have had some 'hypo-glaucomic episodes' to do with his diabetes/blood sugar, which would result in him becoming unconscious etc. So the consultant has given him yet more medication to add to his collection & he has been referred to the TIA clinic which specialises in people that have suffered mini-strokes, just incase thats what it was. I'm more inclined to think it is connected with his blood sugar. I have told him to eat at more regular intervals, not just at meal times & also a couple of people are going to check on him every couple of days or so. Its been a pretty worrying time, but he seems to be ok now & hasn't had any more 'episodes' since.
Stitching wise, I'm afraid the blues have finally got me! I'm all blued-out. So I picked up Titania again for a while:

Glad you're feeling better and I hope your dad is on the mend too. It's so scary when the problem/cause is still unknown.
Titania looks great!!
I can't believe I have no idea which Mira that is!! Pretty colours though!
I'm glad you're feeling better. Is it Forest Goddess?
Ok, I looked at the site... and I'd have to guess Forest Goddess as well.
So sorry about your Dad. I hope he's feeling better soon! Titania is looking beautiful!
Sorry to hear about your Dad - I hope there's no more worrying episodes....
Titania looks stupendous on that fabric - I'm thinking of buying that pattern again and stitching her for a second time cos I don't like the fabric mine's on.
Hmmm...those colours look kind of familiar....looks very much like Forest Goddess unless I'm very much mistaken....
Sorry to hear about your dad, hope everything is ok now
I love forest goddess so I will enjoy watching this one
... and Gill I have been thinking the same thing about Titania, she was in my pre- hand dyed days!
Wow, that is pretty fabric for Titania :-)
that is Forest Goddess!!! no mistake! :)
