Bed 3 , Bay 3



I'm lying in a 4 bed bay, attached to a drip machine . Its on a stand, with wheels. Wherever i go, it goes. Fun..

For the first 24hrs, i'm being "hydrated" with saline. The proper chemo infusions will start tomorrow night.

First impressions: Life on the ward (for patients) is excruciatingly slow. I'll do well to keep my mind active and i'm sure this blog, books, visits and my neighbours will help.
More about them tomorrow.
I've just found the remains of a daddy-long-legs in my bedside light. Could it really have been there since last summer??

  1. How'd you sleep Pete? Thinking of you lots and lots. Does your mob work on the ward and are you allowed to use it? ... Love you. Cx Wish I was 'round the corner. I'd bring you in a fishing magazine and a BIG tub of Ben & Jerry's - Fish Food, to give you something to do! That's a promise! ;-)
