The final indignity.......

......had a telephone consultation with my doctor yesterday afternoon and he's decided he wants a stool sample to check it's not JUST novovirus. Bro-in-law kindly did the pick-up this morning and my bro (bravely!) is doing the drop-off back at the surgery tomorrow afternoon. Also had a 'ministering angel' visitation from the granddaughter who did me some essential shopping, cleaned out cat litter trays, washed dishes and generally entertained me/took my mind off my woes.....subjects discussed included politics, the madness of Trump, the fall of the Berlin Wall, dance styles (she easily mastered The Twist with a few handy hints!) and rising local transport costs........
