Two down, one to go.

After a quiet period I've been to two out patient appointments this week (one more at the end of the month - the brain man) The first, on Monday was with St Mark's Hospital, Harrow - all's well and they will see me once more, in 6 months, and if all is still well they will sign me off. 

The second, with the cancer man at the Berks, was also OK, he will send me for a CT scan in December just to be sure, and if that's clear he'll see me in 9 months.

We enjoyed Malta (4-18 Sept) but it was odd. they drive on the left, in right hand drive cars, everyone speaks English, and there are loads of Arriva bendi-buses - to everywhere - every few minutes - it just didn't feel like being abroad, a bit like Cyprus - UK with 30 degrees! Still it was a good rest, lovely roof-top pool and a beach 10min away.

I'm coping well without driving, the only difficult bit is carrying things but there's lots of help - if you ask!  I'm a 1/3 of the way through now (no reduction for doing a course!!!) I get a great deal of use from my bus pass and my 'Disabled RailCard' - which gives us both, me and my 'carer', 1/3 off.'
