peely-wally - photo taken for the family chat to show them I’m still alive. beefy came in to see me on his own today which was good, we could relax and not worry about the girls worrying. they were living it up at gran and granda’s.

the tv is non-stop news about corona virus heading our way. it’s so odd being in hospital when something so massive is going on outside. only a matter of time before they stop visitors coming in but the nurses don’t seem worried yet. everyone is washing their hands constantly and everything is washed down in the wards. and I’m having to pee into what looks like a a cardboard cowboy hat. every time. I’ll never forget the smell of that cardboard.

stomach still playing up but not too bad and I’m now on loads of anti-inflammatory steroids. still on the drip. trying to eat bits and pieces but v scared to. what can I eat? it’s going to take me a while to figure this out and my diet is going to be far less healthy than before. I hope I can still run with this thing.
