I got to a dr, you’ll be glad to hear. It was a long sit – I wonder if Monday is not perhaps the best day for the Open Access clinic. Not “our” doctor, but at least a young woman with whom I was acquainted from her house calls to my husband. She has prescribed another antibiotic, rather doubtfully; sent me to the Western General for a chest x-ray (that’s been done); and taken “bloods”. She promised to phone later in the week with results.

That’s about it, for now. The kitchen is still not finished, but nearly. It’s looking good. I didn’t get a nap today, nor much lunch, and feel fairly rotten – bed time, I think.

  3. Perdita and Paradox please look after your human. She needs to stay warm, dry, rested and well nourished. I am thinking of her.

  4. You did the right thing! If you don't tell them, they can't know that you need help. Hoping vey hard that things will get back on course now, and it will turn out to have been "just an episode"

  11. Sometimes these things take time to shake off. But you need to eat regularly to recover. Perhaps stock up on small, ready to eat items? - Bananas, nuts, cheesy biscuits, Kit-Kats...

    Dear Jean, Thank you so much for writing to us despite your fatigue. We all feel better when we hear from you just a little. Which is kind of selfish of us, when you think about it (:-)) since posting even a short note probably saps your energy. But that's what we feel as concerned followers and friends. So thank you for doing it. And we all strongly hope to hear that you are finally having a very good recovery as soon as possible. Not only is baby Camilla a joy but so is her adorable big sister (at least I am assuming that is who the lovely little girl is). Chloe
