I am back at work (a silly o’clock start this morning) after my two days of ECP, and a not particularly brilliant weekend suffering from snuffles, headaches etc – which thankfully seem to be getting better! However Felicity did sterling work in getting the Christmas tree up and decorated.<\/p>\n

ECP itself was uneventful in the process, but the procedure was enhanced because of some staff training, carried out by Claire (a representative from the manufacturer Therakos<\/a>) who was training two new staff to the dermatology day unit. I now know more about ‘buffy coats’ and psoralens (the UV activated drug that does the work) than I thought possible! Still, I have always tried to find out about my treatments, so it was another educational experience! The girls were all going out in the evening (an educational seminar?) so I hope you all had a good evening, and I suppose now is the time to wish Ian, Suki, Dawn, Emma and all the other staff (too many names to remember – sorry) who have looked after me for the last six months a happy Christmas!<\/p>\n

London itself was cold – and the accommodation wasn’t much better – I don’t know if it was me, or the heating system, but the radiator didn’t seem to get above luke warm!<\/p>\n

Rachael picked me up at Winchester on my way back – in her replacement car, a Fiat Punto. A “tidy motor” is probably as good a description as any – although that is probably doing it an injustice, as it seems to run well, and is a bit bigger than the Saxo – and lower insurance. But at least she is mobile again, and as Gill said in a comment, most importantly, no-one was hurt.<\/p>\n

I am working for the rest of this week and a couple of days next, then I’m off for Christmas and the New Year.<\/p>\n

So – Onwards and Upwards!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
