Hello
I am back online as of today
I was about to post but saw this.
Thanks guys. We have been in hospital 9 weeks (with 4 days home but then straight back in). Wills is OK now but things have been sticky to say the least. All very technical to bore you with but, in a nutshell, he has intestinal failure and his gut leaks into his blood stream. He has a hickman line in to feed him intravenous feed (he can't tolerate anything into his digestive system) and the bugs from his leaky gut keep on getting into the blood and then settling into the line causing sepsis. Things have come to a bit of a head now so we are waiting for an urgent assessment in Birmingham for a small bowel transplant.
I haven't been on the bike for 2 months
as my bike has been lonely in Croydon. I've not been running much either as I had a nasty chest infection and couldn't quite knock it on the head. I will be building it all up slowly and surely but have pulled out of all my events until September. The transplant assessment will be 2 weeks and Wills will probably be in hospital other than that too. It is all stop start so I will just do what I can to keep things ticking over, it isn't a priority at the moment.
I am looking forward to reading back to see what has been going on and getting out on the club run as soon as Paul is here on a Saturday morning. I do wonder what to do if we get listed for transplant though as sods law the call will come when I am at the longst point from home!!! May have to cycle in circles, never more than a few miles from home for a while. Ah well, jump that bridge when I come to it....
