    ...to the hospital. Today is my last visit, my next visit is in two weeks time to see my consultant, then it will be visits on a 6 week basis. My report today was quite good.

    Totally forgot about my Blogs yesterday I had been going around like a fly with a blue bum, shopping for food, the preparing it for today's evening meal (pork ribs marinating in Hoi Sin and Dark Soy). I had also spent a few hours sorting and 'playing' with photographs.
