Great news is that my blood counts have come roaring up the scale seeing off mount ulcers, sickness and peeing problems with a ferocious speed. The doctors are so pleased they are talking about taking out my Hickman line and sending me home perhaps on Thursday! This is a great surprise and very welcome news if only for the escape from hospital food. The only residual problem is they did manage to grow a nasty bug from my blood sample of last Friday and apparently this can cause bad pneumonia so they have to get that sorted before they let me go. I am feeling very well overall, still a bit weak and sleepy but not critically ill in any area as before. I started gently on my exercise bike today to try to get onto the exercise routine.
Looking forward to getting a good behaviour award and a pass out from the hospital in the next week !
Cheers
Gerry

Great news. Hope the bug is already off your system, and despite the sickness, ulcers, and peeing problems, you are at home this Thursday. sharing this wee problems with all your girls will be far better. Keep every thing crossed, knock wood and whatever has to be done for this.

Unless you've let too many Easter eggs go to your head, or are regarding your slush puppy transplant as a form of resurrection, I assume that it is with the cavalry (dark blue shirts, yellow neckerchiefs, John Wayne, etc) that you are heading for the hills. Though perhaps singing 'Always look on the bright side of life' will keep your spirits up until you're well enough for release.
First chance I've had in about a week to catch up with your progress. Keep it up so you can get home and enjoy the family.
