Blood Transfusion

Yesterday's blood transfusion went ahead as planned, although it was a lengthy process.

I took Swordfish to the Marsden by 9am but the transfusion didn't begin until almost 2pm. The staff seemed very busy and the nurse appointed to Swordfish appeared a lot less enthusiastic about her work than any of the other members of staff I have met.

Still, we held it together and a weary man returned home by 8.45pm.

Today he is very tired and so Nurse Kitten (self appointed title!) has suggested plenty of rest and day time snoozing whilst the children are at school.

Thanks to all for continued good wishes. Every word and thought is well received and very much appreciated.

Love kitten x

  2. Kitten, I have been there and I wonder, now, where and how I found the strength, but you just do. I am constantly thinking of Rumps and his resilient fight, but especially of you, the unwavering link holding the family together. Be strong, be brave, the fight is worth it.

    With my best wishes and prayers.

  4. Kitten - What is the phone number of the healer?

    I would like to talk to him/her about a busy *timetable* and how things can be made available if they are important enough.

    Swordfish has my number and email... so please respond...
