Thanks, since I am not permitted to drive home I await my daughters chariot in less than an hour. Yesterday I experienced ineptitude with several unsuccessful attempts from four (qualified nurses to wrest blood), my favourite total dislike when they go chasing a vein. So covered in bruises and several dossiers I was glad to get away. My cats were so anxious to see me they spent time jumping up and down leaving deep impressive marks on the appointed leg as they departed .At the health centre where I normally go for blood tests the woman and three of them are most professional. The main lady comes from Transylvania where she was Head Nurse in Surgery. We often go back about where she lived and the European experiences she had.

Peter. On with the motley.

Thanks for your good wishes,so many tasks involve the no no instructions,the softly softly approaches summed up by the Surgeon yesterday who said normally he would do everything in one day but he did not want to cause my kidneys to go from acute to failure. The lady next to me the day before in another hospital was only early fifties and her kidneys gave up with her only prospect a kidney transplant. The best thing for me when admitted on Sunday was to be assigned a real sweetheart of a young lady who went way past the call. She is off for a week after seven days on so next Monday I have a pen for her. On Monday just before I was discharged I met a previous Angel due to have her first baby in July, we swapped hugs she for her first baby and me for my ongoing elsewhere. She helped me also in an outstanding way years before. So wonderful to be able to use pen currency for both of these superior nurses.

Kind regards Peter.
