The list was then followed by a "cons" equivalent. "Not being the mum I'm used to being and picking Sky up," she typed. "The fear of not knowing if the cancer is all gone - the mental with this is... "The pain and discomfort is ok and expected but a d******d when I'm trying to sleep." Jessie explained how the only painkillers she was allowed to take were paracetamol and ibuprofen due to having low blood pressure. 7 The singer put out a list of pros and cons post-surgery Credit: jessiej/Instagram She did try and clear up her post at the time, warning she hadn't meant for the statement to be read as "fact" and that she is still awaiting her results.

Denise Welch shows glam Glasto accommodation ahead of son Tom's headline show
Loose Women presenter Denise Welch is looking forward to watching her son Matty Healy headline at Glastonbury and gave a sneak peek at her luxury accommodation Denise Welch is every bit the proud mother as she awaits son Matty Healy's Glastonbury headline. Matty and The 1975 are set to headline the Pyramid Stage from 10.15pm tonight and have 'pulled out all the stops' to ensure it is one to remember. And now his Loose Women presenter mum Denise has revealed her accommodation in the build-up to the honour. Taking to her Instagram Stories on Friday, she admitted she "can't quite believe it" as she shared a clip of Matty performing. Alongside a number of party emojis, she labelled the day: "Glastonbury Day." Denise, who shares Matty with ex-husband Tim Healy, then joked Matty's stepdad - Denise's current partner Lincoln Townley - was "preparing". She had earlier admitted she's not a fan of festivals - and had ruled out camping. She instead opted for a more comfortable nights rest off site. As she showed off their secluded setting in the fields, filled with sunshine and shrubbery, Denise then panned onto her man in a hot tub. Lincoln was then seen donning a wicker cowboy hat as he hanged his feet over the sides of the jacuzzi, which was bubbling away. He told her he was "loving Glastonbury" as he relaxed before she showed herself smiling as she waited her son's big night. Following their preparation, Denise then headed to the festival and loved showing off the flags in her honour. While some simply shared her name, others had a huge image of her face as they were waved up high. And she shared a sweet snap of "Glasto chicks" as she re-shared Zoe Ball's upload. The radio host admitted she had been sobbing while watching Lewis Capaldi's surprise set before bumping into Denise. Denise previously admitted she was "stressing out" ahead of her son's appearance. "I've not really been a festival bunny - I don't really do festivals,' confessed Denise, 67, in a chat with The Mirror. "The only one I've been to is Coachella. It was all VIP and very lovely. Hot, sunny and gorgeous and I thought 'Oh, this is okay'. And no one stays there, everyone goes home at the end of the night. I am stressed about Glastonbury.' And she admitted she won't be seeing out the full weekend's entertainment. 'I am not going to stay for the whole three days,' she added. 'I would rather be able to dip in and out. I might dip back in for the Sunday night to see Rod.' Her Friday night fun comes as BRIT award-winning The 1975 - made up of Matty, Adam Hann, Ross MacDonald, and George Daniel - step out onto the iconic Pyramid Stage. Denise admitted Matty, 36, gets his musical talent from dad Tim, 73, who appeared in ITV 's Benidorm.

Shaw is accused of smuggling the drugs alongside his Argentine lover, Eleonora Gracia. Prosecutors say Gracia, 46, was arrested in March at Bali's international airport with the cocaine wrapped in a condom hidden in her vagina. Authorities allege that she then handed over the drugs to Shaw, 50, who was part of the smuggling plot. read more in Brit 'smugglers' WEDDING HELLS Mule couple who claimed they were on 'honeymoon' smuggled £99k of drugs to UK On Thursday, prosecutors at the District Court in Denpasar said the pair violated strict anti-narcotics laws. After the charges against the pair were read out, a panel of three judges adjourned the trial until July 3. Gracia and Shaw wore face masks as they sat next to each other in court and remained silent during proceedings. Shaw, who lives in Perugia, Italy, and works in the entertainment industry, has the word "justice" tattooed on his neck. Ms Sulamsi told the court: "The defendant has attempted or conspired to illegally import type A narcotics in the form of cocaine weighing 244.07 grams." According to the prosecutor, Shaw and Buenos Aires-native Gracia planned to meet on March 25, at The Paica Inn – a budget guest house – in North Kuta.

He is the fourth Brit to come before the court on cocaine trafficking charges in recent weeks. Earlier this month three Brits accused of trafficking £300,000 worth of cocaine into Bali were told they would dodge the death sentence with the prosecutor requesting a slap on the wrist sentence of one-year. Lovers Jonathan Collyer, 39 and Lisa Stocker, 38, of Hastings, East Sussex, pleaded guilty to bringing the drugs haul onto the holiday island disguised in 17 packets of Angel Delight on February 1.

The trio are being held in Bali's notorious Kerobokan prison – known as "Hotel K". Foreign nationals have been executed in the past for carrying large quantities of narcotics. Yorkshire granny, Lindsay Sandiford, 69, has been on death row since 2013 after being found guilty of smuggling £1.6 million worth of cocaine into Bali. The United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime says Indonesia is a major drug-smuggling hub despite having some of the strictest drug laws in the world. On Monday Indonesian authorities arrested 285 people suspected of drug trafficking, including 29 women and seven foreigners, and seized over half a ton of narcotics during a two-month crackdown. About 530 people are on death row in Indonesia, mostly for drug-related crimes, including 96 foreigners, the Ministry of Immigration and Corrections' data showed last month. But Indonesia's last executions were carried out in July 2016.
