I now noticed that the 2nd operation was much more serious than the 1st one. With much more care I was taken w to my room and put in my bed, whilst my right eye was covered up and they urged me to stay on my back and not to move at all. I wasn’t allowed to have any visitors for the first few days, on the third day only Carey or Piet were allowed to come and look for a moment; lucky no complications occurred and the situation improved all the time and I was allowed to receive visitors the first few days sitting in bed and quite soon sitting at the table; however I was not allowed to move my head and every time I was being fed by nurse Hazewinkel, a cousin of the surgeon.She was a big woman, who in all views took very good care and after about 8 days let me have a nice bath..
