Overall this has been a good week. A few small ups and downs, but nothing serious. I now have a rota of people baby sitting me and already have had to disappoint two ladies who were offering bed baths - I was up and dressed!!! My sitters are a great help and I could not do without them at the moment as they provide the security I need.
There is a slow sign of general improvement. I am eating better, not feeling so sick and getting better nights sleep. I tried a very small glass of wine last night and it tasted terrible, so some evenings I'm sticking to tea while others have a nice glass of wine!!!
Mary is trying to convince people that my dark skin on my hands is because my donor was dark skinned. After 36 years of marriage I still cannot keep her in control. As a Christian husband and considering what St Paul said about husbands and wives, have I failed???
Friday was a good day at Addenbrookes. Haemoglobin was up at 13.6 which is brilliant. I met a guy in clinic who made me realised just how thankful I had to be. At week 36 after his transplant he had hardly managed to get out of bed and there I was at week 43 feeling rather chipper.
