The plug hole for the shower water managed to block itself this morning causing quite a flood out from the shower room, right across the bedroom floor, and out into the corridor beyond. I had to beat a hasty retreat as nurses banged on the door armed with blankets and sheets and started scattering them in all directions to mop up the mess.

Plans for discharged tomorrow seem to be moving on a pace but nothing is certain until they give the green light. This morning a top-up blood transfusion is dripping into me as I write, which should give me a boost for home. And a second bag has kept me plugged in all afternoon too. No nice visits to the ‘friends’ for coffee today I’m afraid.

  1. Well, I guess we have to wait for the final weather forecast at Cape Canaveral!

    Hope to see you descending through the clouds some time tomorrow :)

    You are becoming a seasoned astronaut.

  2. Hi Roger, you sure you're not trying to get yourself chucked out by creating a diversion???
    Have a vision of you making a break for the main gates, with just a "Hospital issue" towel round your middle, a shower cap on and a pair of fip flops. Toiletry bag in hand, trying to look "smert but casual"!!.

    These steroids could have some interesting side effects. Arnold Schwartzewhattzit? looked like he had them for breakfast dinner and tea, and his catch phrase was "Ahhhlll be bakk!" too. :)

    Will see you back in Dumfries and Galloway very soon we think!
