BACK INSIDE

Hallo All,

 Quick line just to say that I am currently in HOP Clinic and I have been told that today I will be re- admitted to hospital. My haemoglobin is dropping at quite a fast rate and I need a big blood transfusion. Problem is I have antibodies in my blood which makes it difficult for them to match me and at the moment they cannot find any blood for me...hope they find some soon! Fingers crossed this will just be a twenty four hour/ weekend stay. I will be on an open ward ( been on it before and it's the pits, so very unhappy about this aspect), so hope I don't pick up any infection. Looking forward to getting home asap.

Luigi's Venice exhibition going well. Wish he was here.

LATER UPDATE

Have a stinking cold and swabs that they took on Thursday have come back positive with a virus, called RSB so I have been told that my 24 hours has been extended to a minimum of seven days while I am given a strong nebuliser (3 times a day) to clear up the chest infection...oh dear. Very unhappy about this; but nothing to be done except get on with it. I am in a private ward in a single room, at least I am not on the open ward. Haematology wards are all chockablock so don't know how long I will be on private ward for. Nice bathroom and free newspaper. Room with a view? Ha! You gotta be joking...room with another brick wall. What is it with Kings and brick walls!

Will write again soon. Ciao ciao tutti. tch x

So sorry to hear about this set back. Hope the hospital stay is short and sweet (in a manner of speaking!) and you can return to your sunny garden as soon as. Sending big love and plenty of kitty purrs xxx

Oh Tessa, so sorry to hear it really is 1 step forward 2 steps back, what a bummer. You are in the best if not the most salubrious place. Hope they find that blood. Sometimes it is better to be plain 'common'!

Tess sweetie - what a bugger! I'm so sorry - but sure they will find that blood( what is it?) and as well as doing the trick will make you feel loads better. Know what you mean about brick walls at Kings. Mind the Nuffield in Exeter had an outlook of bins and refuse lorries....Anyway, to misquote, brick walls do not a prison make and here's to your lovely spirits flitting around your garden and Out and across the Lido. Much love xxxTina
