Yesterday’s blog entry attracted record numbers of comments and almost record number of ‘hits’ on the pagees – thank you!<\/p>\n
Well I had my 5 minutes of fame this morning although I didn’t see the programme live (I was out talking to the work medics about my future employment – looking good!) but I did watch it when I got home.<\/p>\n
It seemed very odd watching 6 months of one’s life condensed into 10 minutes or so. There was so much I had forgotten but seeing it again really brought home the trials and tribulations of the last few months. Rachel and her team at City Hospital did a fantastic job of picking out the essence of it, and thinking about it for the final moments of the film reminded me just what an amazing thing a transplant is.<\/p>\n
There is still a little way to go yet – I’m still on the fortnightly check ups in the transplant clinic for the time being, with another PET scan in two or three months time, and then at some stage I hope I will be back to the three monthly checks.<\/p>\n
Providing all continues to go well, I may be going back to work in August, which will give a chance to start getting physically fit again and pass recreational diving medical so that I can go on the trip to Cyprus, and start getting back to normal. I also have some work to do for Leukaemia Care<\/a> including some training material and an article for their magazine “Focus” as a follow up to one I wrote last Autumn. There is a PDF version of that edition in the “About… LeukaemiaCare”<\/a> page.<\/p>\n This is not the end of the blog of course, as it isn’t the end of the journey, so I will be writing it for a while yet!<\/p>\n Once again – thank you all for your support! <\/p>\n Onwards and Upwards!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Yesterday’s blog entry attracted record numbers of comments and almost record number of ‘hits’ on the pagees – thank you!
