new ward

an hour or so with the grandson then we all head off to the clinic. deb drops me at the door then heads off to a play centre.

all on my own today and it does feel lonely.

i grab some biscuits, try to make some hot chocolate. the touch screen ignores my touch. typical. luckily another patient's wife is there to help. one touch and the machine springs to life.

today i'm in a different ward, acute care, i think it is. different part of the hospital. another patient on the other side of a curtain, he's here for a few more days. sounds of building work from nearby. another exciting adventure :-) 

deb and i exchange a few text messages. deb also -- accidentally -- phones. i hear sounds of playing in the background but they don't hear me.

i'm on the first hard dug drip. or the second? i don't watch so i lose track. another hour of this one still to go.

had a visit from the cancer doc's "personal touch person". something like that. her job is to make sure that i'm happy with the service. cheerful, outgoing, laughs easily, interested in me...feels totally false. i breathe a sigh of relief when she leaves, i can relax again.

lunch is, of course, "chef's choice". rather nice roast lamb.

i successfully connect to the hospital wifi so i may post this from here. and if there is not another post today -- then all is probably well :-)
