Day 2 of my chemio

 Arriving at the hospital yesterday, I remembered, too late, that I had left my iphone at home. My iphone is important for me as it has my UK sim in it and that is what I used for facetime but it isn't the end of the world, I have my android phone and my macbook! Oufff

I came to hospital by taxi. A lovely lady who, unlike myself, was calm in spite of the tractors and slower cars on the ride. Once arrived, I came to my unit. It is a sterile unit so all my clothes have been taken away to be sterilised and washed. At the moment I am wearing 

you see!

So after this it was blood test, temperature, blood pressure and a ride in a private ambulance to another part of the hospital for an x-ray of my chest. Oh I forgot to say that I had to shower and the shower head fell off its stand and hit the ground cracking it open and the water squirting everywhere. I had to shower with it like that again this morning. 

Then I settled in, reading a little: "To know him is " by Dennis Hobart Giles. He and I must be around the same age but he has had a very different life to mine. Anyway, I finished the book this morning and it made me a little teary! Listened to music, watched some TV. Unlike in the outpatients unit, the 4G is really quite good, so I am glad I didn't buy a router although I have bought a sim from Bouygues as their coverage here is supposed to be much better. A meal of soup, poulet à la provencal veg and some pasta, apple and yoghurt. Not bad. 

I also had a word with one of the doctor's and had a good night's sleep despite being woken every 4 hours for blood pressure and temperature.
