Good news.

The nurse came by with the doctor from the Rehabilitation Centre today.

It's good the doctors from the Rehabilitation Centre Amsterdam come by regularly to check the healing process is going well.

The good news is the pressure sore is 1 cm smaller than last week, it is now down to 3 cms.

The doctor and nurse were very pleased so much so that the nurse will be coming every two weeks instead of every week from now on, he made it clear that should we need him he would be round to see us immediately.

Do you feel lucky today?



Find it difficult to deal with questions such as:

What does the doctor say?

In my case nothing as they do not know and can not make a prognosis.

Or are you any better?

No and I won't be better.

Or about the wound when do the doctors think it will heal?
They have no idea and say slowly.

It's very worrying to have an illness where doctors can not help me which is weird as we are all brought up to think the doctors can always help.

Just not with something like primary progressive MS then doctors and patients have to gamble.
