On another cold-cloudy day Jackie drove me to Southampton General Hospital to begin my next round of BCG vaccine instillation. This went smoothly, but the after effects are more than somewhat inconducive to concentration.
I did manage to finish reading Juliet Barker’s ‘The Brontës’, but maintaining focus may take a day or two for a review.
This evening we dined on Bird’s Eye battered cod; oven chips, baked beans, and garden peas, with which I drank more of the Malbec.
I imagine the Malbec will counter the after effects of your injection Derrick, and after a good sleep, hopefully you will feel better in the morning.
Thanks for the update, Derrick. I had been wondering if you were going to have the to second round after the holidays. Another delicious sounding dinner.
I thought you might have a second round of treatment after the holidays. Dinner sounds delicious.
Prayers for you to get some good sleep and rest and feel better soon.
When you are ready to review…we will be here to read it! 🙂
(((HUGS))) and ❤️❤️ to you and to Jackie!! 🙂
It is a hard grind. If sympathy from others is any help, I offer you a bucket load.
Hope this vaccine goes well.
Hope you feel better soon, Derrick. xx
I hope the after effect will be mild.
Like the others, I hope you recover soon. Looking forward to hearing about the brontes.
I hope the effects are short lived, Derrick. 🙂
I sympathise with you. The after effects/affects of some drugs can be really annoying and you wonder if it is worthwhile.
I don’t know how you could even read after that. I’m glad you had a nice dinner. Sending lots of healthy vibes, Derrick.
I hope the side effects subside sooner than later. I’ll look forward to your review of ‘The Brontës’.
Oh my, Derrick! I thought you were done with the BCG vaccine. At least, it hasn’t ruined your appetite 🙂
Praying for your good health Derrick. How is Jackie? Please convey ny good wishes to her.
I’m impressed that you were able to finish ‘The Brontës’ in spite of the side effects. Hope you feel better very soon!
That is certainly a difficult therapy. I trust it will cure you fully and give you long term comfort. I’m keenly waiting for your review on that book, but please rest yourself.
