Peter’s Hospital Diary

Hmmm – there is more to being a blogmaster than meets the eye! I came to check the site this morning and found that it wasn’t working – so if you tried to look, you either received a cryptic message about not finding the mysql server, or my hastily put together maintenance page! Suffice to […]

A special post, nothing to do with health, but just to note that the blog is now up and running on www.boraston.net/blog – and to say a big ‘Thank You’ to Mark J for setting up the original blog back in January – it seems a long time ago! For those that are interested in […]

Yes, it really is 7 weeks yesterday since the transplant took place! I suppose the real difference is that the trees in the garden are startiing to bud, the bird life is more noticeable and the evenings are much lighter! Another check-up yesterday and the general agreement seems to be that I am making good […]

Thank you for the comments so far – I’ll certainly keep the blog going while I have anything to report, and if the hosting does change, I’ll post that too. Meanwhile thanks to Mark for continuing to host it. We had a good weekend and ventured out to a social event on Saturday night (a […]

I haven’t been very diligent in writing the blog, but with weekly check-ups, there isn’t really a lot to report on healthwise! However I did have another check yesterday, and also had the stitches from the Hickman line removal removed – so apart from a few (more) scars, that is all done and dusted! Progress […]

Can’t quite believe that 2 weeks have passed since I was released! It is a cold grey morning here in Hampshire – with a dusting of snow on the shed roof. I see the squirrels have attacked the bird feeder and there is a pile of bird seed on the lawn – it won’t be […]

It has been a quiet few days over the weekend. My parents came down to look after me at the weekend while Felicity was away, and a little more work was done on the conservatory footings, but Sunday was really wet down here, so not much progress was made! However yesterday was brighter and the […]

I’m sorry I didn’t get to update this yesterday – we got back from London late afternoon to get several visitors – including my parents who will be looking after me this weekend while Felicity is away. I was also setting up a new broadband router in the evening, which took a bit of time […]

Another quiet day at home! Not really a lot happening at the moment apart from taking my medicine and relaxing! However Felicity and I are off to London in a moment for my next check up at Guy’s tomorrow. I hope that this will soon be a weekly occurrence, with the mid week check ups […]

Bit late posting today – mainly because it has been very quiet! I have felt quite tired – the trip up to London over the last couple of days was more tiring than I expected. I also had some aching legs from the brisk walk to the hospital (only 15 minutes each way too 🙁 […]
