You may all be wondering what has happened to me, seemingly disappeared off your screens. Well while on my holiday I got severe abdominal pains which resulted in 4 days in bed and eventually a visit to the emergency department of my local hospital, who then proceeded to do some emergency exploratory surgery. Finally after 5 days in hospital I’ve been released to my natural environment, and am back in front of the computer screen!
I’ve been so lucky that during this ordeal friends and family have rallied round to look after my kids and me and the dogs and keep everything going.
When visited one evening in hospital by my ex-husband after I’d been vomiting (sorry rather graphic detail), he motioned to the contents of the v-bag (as it’s labelled) and said “what colour would you call that?” my reply – asparagus green. And of course he challenged me to share this tidbit on my blog.
Anyway, I am recovering, still tired and sore, but getting better every day and will soon be back to full strength.
Fortunately, I’ve got some more guest posts lined up for you to fill in the void while I get my strength back, and appreciate you all hanging around waiting for more.
With thanks
Imogen
Wow, that sounds awful! Hope you're feeling better and make a full recovery soon.
Poor you! Feel better soon.
Have been missing you. Feel better soon!
Sorry to hear about this Imogen – glad you are on the mend.
Oh, Imogen, so sorry! I hope you got my email – please let me know if there's anything else you need. I hope you feel all the way better soon.
Hope you're feeling better soon…
oh! how funny, my word verification is "tesses"
I WAS wondering about you – I had no suspicion of illness (just new year busy-ness). So sorry to hear this Imogen. I hope you are recovering quickly and that the doctors have it all figured out.
Sorry to hear about the crisis, but I am glad you are on the mend.
Really?! Asparagus green! Thanks for sharing. LOL. Glad to hear you've returned to your natural environment. Get better and be well. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
Sorry to hear it, glad you're on the mend. Don't push yourself too hard, we'll wait!
I thought for sure you were on some wild party binge in Shanghai or some far off adventure in Nepal or something! So sorry it's the stomach malady – ugh! The very worst kind in my book! Get well soon.
Feel better soon. We all understand how hard it is to get up and running again after being put out of commission like that.
Best wishes for a speedy recovery! Poor thing!
Hope you will be well soon! Can't wait to read more posts!
So sorry to hear of your sudden health crisis and wishing you a full, strong recovery. Don't worry, I will wait.
Sending you wishes for a speedy recovery!
Oh, dear, I'm so sorry to hear this, and hope you're OK now. Be well.
Poor you! Hope you are all better now.
Imogen – I saw the picture of the asparagus and thought, "Is this the new green for 2011?" Then I read your post! Hopefully, this is NOT the new green for 2011. Take care of yourself. Best wishes for a speedy return to health.
Thank God you're okay and fine now.
Imogen, I am so sorry. Feel better soon please!
I have not forgotten about posting my style…just need to get some pictures taken!
Blessings…

Get well soon, Imogen!! I'm sending good thoughts your way.
What an unpleasant experience – not at all what you would have planned for your holidays. Do keep using any help for all it's worth, so you can really de-stress for a while. We'll all be here when you decide to come back. And here's hoping you find truly improved health in the coming year.
((hugs))
Hope you are better soon.

Glad you're back home. Did they find anything?
Take it easy and recover. I enjoy your guests' posts. Not as much as yours but nearly!!
I hope you are feeling better soon.

Sorry I'm late to this, I'm a bit behind on my blog reading, but that sounds awful. Poor you! I hope you are feeling better, and being looked after. Take care x
Oh, sorry to hear this! Even for a color-lover such as yourself, green is NOT the way to go with bodily fluids.
Belated wishes for a fast recovery!
Awful thing to happen over the holidays. Glad to hear you're ok now. I hope they worked out what was wrong!!!
