I thought it was about time I updated the blog. I have been enjoying my time out of hospital and trying not to think about the illness and treatment much, and so the blog kind of slipped my mind.
The other day my wife noticed I have rather large red mark on the back of my head, so she took a photo of it:
I knew there was something there a few weeks ago because the back of my head had been a little painful, which eventually went away and left me with what I thought was a small area of dry skin. I had no idea how big it was, it looks like some kind of crop circle on my noggin! I also didn’t realise I had lost so much hair round the back. I noticed it was getting a little thinner all over after starting the current regime, but it looks a bit worse in a photo than it does in the mirror.

Time to worry is if a gold spot appears in the middle of it and you here somebody saying “Bernie the bolt” Probably before your time!! Seriously though glad to hear you’ve managed home for a wee while. Hope you are regrouping after the farming of the stem cells. Sounds as though that was a grueling exercise. Maybe see you before the 19th. All the best to you both. D & S

Broadcast between ’67 and ’75, so yeah a little before my time!
Recovered from the stem cell farming now, don’t fancy any more of that carry on…
