good news on both fronts Jack!

I can’t remember, do you still have a drain in? Looking forward to hearing that it has totally stopped and healed over.

Hi Ron. The drain was removed some time ago. I have had to wear dressings on it. Best wishes.

Jack, Thank you for the update. You have had a rough summer and it is good to have you posting your status is improving with time. May the clearing of the heat we have experienced this summer bring you cool and comfortable days as you continue to heal from your loss.

It’s inspiring that you are continuing to heal and move forward. You’ve been carrying a heavy load. Hopefully you can get out for some walks in the park to breathe in nature again now that fall is almost here. Take care of yourself.

Thank you. The abscess was caused by an inguinal hernia.

Your blood test numbers look super! I know how difficult it is to go through a parent’s death, as well as dealing with one’s own health simultaneously, and glad to read that you are coming to terms with your mother’s passing and getting stronger as time goes on. Take care.

it must be difficult for you with so much news of the Royal funeral too. On the plus side, your numbers are good and things are improving for you which is a great positive.

Hi Jack, very pleased to read that you are feeling a little better and that the world is, hopefully, a more positive place. I realise that I have missed an earlier posting, maybe more than one. Apologies! I have been a little pre-occupied with house renovations and other mundane stuff. All in my face but not as important as staying connected.

Take care and have a great weekend!

Michael
