WOW !   

Well it seems the leg is finally over the hill and finally healing properly, and at a pace too, so hopefully not too much longer visiting Hospital, Doctors and District Nurses ! 

You know that during this problem with my leg I've realised just how many people care, and certain special friends have been very very supportive, despite all that's been happening in thier own lives,

Friends from MobileRead forums and from LRS have especially been fantastic, with the most wonderful people from Australia, Ireland and Hinckley here in the East Midlands and several in the USA,

One from Hinckley lost her Mum this week, All our prayers and thoughts and especially our Love are with with her at this time, We will be there if ever you need us dear friend !

My Irish friend always understands, always has a way to make me smile and never forgets, I hope only that I'm half the friend she is to me !

And finally a friend in Australia, I call her my Sister because she has been more supportive, more of a friend and more everything than any genetic Sister ever has !   

I hope these and many others will know just what they mean to me   ....   Always ! 

GB0APS    


                A great success on day 1, Russia, Germany (Many Times), Belguim, Holland, Scotland, Wales, Guernsey, Eire, Northen Ireland, and a lot of southern England worked in very difficult conditions, Many people visited,

Lets hope tomorrow is another Big Success   !  

Leg is exuding rather a lot, Not progressing very quickly, but at least it's not dropped off   ...   Yet ! 

Just had a bad Hypo, my fault, had my insulin, then was busy on computer, talking to freind John, forgot to have my Dinner, suddenly realised I was dropping rapidly,

I'm OK now   ...   LOL !   

GB0APS the special event station running from tomorrow, I'm looking forward too it,  Keep me out of mischief at least !

Apathy Rules, that and lots on my mind has meant that I haven't posted for several days, nothing really wrong, just nothing I really wanted to share or talk about, Hey sometimes I just want to be alone OK ?

We will be found on 80, 40, 20m SSB and possibly also SSTV, PSK, RTTY, If you have facilities listen out for us on Saturday and Sunday!

Hospital today, It went ok, I was seen very quickly which is always a blessing, I hate sitting around those places for hours on end,

The leg IS healing, but they are concerned that it's taking so long, we knew it would be a long while, with the Diabetes and this being a Tertiary Closure, but it is still taking longer than they expected, the last few inches just don't want to knit together, On the positive, they are now using much smaller simpler dressings, more comfortable, no bulky over-tight bandages etc.

I'm feeling quite low,  

Tomorrow is another day, District Nurses in the afternoon,

Had a good evening at club, I was very glad to see an old member has come back to the club,

I had a small hypo, I'm ok, had glucose with me, ate when I got home, not really a lot to say this evening,

Hospital first thing, I'll be glad when all this is finished,  

I'm so tired !  

Didn't go to District Nurse, I'm at the Hospital in the morning anyway, so no real bother, I just didn't feel well and the trek to the Doctors and back was too much for me!

Looking Forward to club tonight, I need some companionship, and I might get to operate Digimodes, I wish I had a working HF Radio of my own, not likely in the near future that's for sure! 

My legs hurting, It's not severe, but annoying,
