Than you for sharing your photos. That scar looks mighty big 😮. Happy for you to have come through it all and looking so well and happy. May it continue 😊. Hope one day that myself and others will be fortunate enough to escape this disease. Xx

hope so. 4 weeks on iv antibiotics for a tiny cat nail to just puncture my skin and it tracked within 2hrs. Ended up with cellulitis & uncomplicated sepsis. Apparently once you have had cellulitis you are prone to it. Please everyone wear something on your feet at all times and be so careful doing the garden or getting bitten. Difficult but this isn't great. Sorry hunny for butting in on your wonderful post. Your scar looks so neat and different to mine xx

Totally! Syksey. I support the BLT at present selling raffle tickets and I am hoping to get on board with this year's road show. There is not one in Birmingham this year but one in Wolverhampton in June that I'm going to try to get to soon as I can find transport .when I go to see my hepetologist I buy a band for £2 . I have a pink and a red one . Next week I will purchase another to show my appreciation for helping us all 😊.

That's really great what you are doing, it's a pity that there are not a lot more people like you. God bless. Ian x

Millie09 in reply toSykesy01

I enjoy supporting anything with regards to hepetology as I have seen a few poorly people whilst in the waiting room at the QE hospital. I believe in supporting any good cause that helps give others a chance of life .that could well be me having a transplant at any time. I support cancer research too and I raised £160 last year ☺. Thank you ian for your kind reply .best wishes linda
