First sign of some red blood cell regeneration…great news. Still being drip fed a sack of iv antibiotics for liver and gall bladder, but seems all that too is going in the right direction. Starting to feel a bit more like normal, which makes me realise how crap I have been feeling. Spent an hour with Luigi in the Lavender Square this afternoon. Fresh air, blue sky and summer wind rustling through fat green plane tree leaves. I lay flat on a park bench, sunshine on my face watching airplanes flying overhead while at ground level, pale brown pigeons with bright red feet scuttling about. Now looking like a bald headed eagle. Lots of hair gone, just patches left. Waiting for some clippers to shave the rest off. Tonight I sleep drip-free. Hoorah!
