25th March - Is that a runway I see?

Taking stock of the situation, I have a sore throat, a tooth that will need to come out and extreme fatigue which means I cannot make decisions and focus on anything for any period of time. It is very difficult when you have zero energy, but there are things that you must do like eat, teeth care, shower, dress. Today took one hour to shower and dress, ah well it will get better even if it takes six months as the consultant told me yesterday. The idea of doing some work in the garden by the Autumn looks as it has gone down the drain.

Memory is rubbish but it has the advantage of being able to watch the same video over and over again!!

You would all laugh if you could see me doing this blog. I've seen 4 year olds who could get round this keyboard quicker that me

Sleeping is still not easy here so cat napping is essential. I know you wont believe me I am a very busy man with obs, tablets, getting out of bed for the cleaners etc etc

And now for the good news...
Feeling so much better emotionally again after yesterday - just a blip which they said could happen from time to time over the next few months. My levels continue to climb steadily, the doc was tentatively pencilling in Monday for arrival at Tyne Crescent but they have now said a few more days as they want my neutraphil levels a bit higher. Mary is disappointed in one breath but relieved in the next as it gives her more time to scrub the poor house out to make sure that no germs are allowed to live!!!!!!

Had communion again today which was lovely - this is at least my fourth visit from the chaplaincy which has been good. Mary said she has seen a vicar around with a dog collar and florescent orange shirt- mine are slightly less colourfully dressed!!!! (Mind you with Mary you are never too shore if it's a wind up)


ADDED NOTE!: Tizzy wanted me to mention that this was also a good day for me as she bought me a scratch card and I won £10!! Lady luck is definitely on my side!
