Update

Hi! all. Well at last our worries have been and gone. Mum's worries at what would be found with a more detailed oscopy, first the sigmoid and yesterday the colonoscopy have failed to show any of the big C worries that we all had. Not even any polyps!
Mum is still very thin and still has pains but these have been put down to her diverticular abnormalities. We will have to meet up with the clinical dietician in a week or two to see what the next steps are, but in the meantime eat, eat, eat! Clinical diverticular, when shown on the screen look like a field of brussels sprouts. Log on to google 'Clinical diverticular' to see what I mean.
Meanwhile my pin prick seems to have healed up although the surrounds look like the aurora borealis - such lovely colours. Thanks to Cathy and Steve for helping me out with sentry duty - waiting for anything is very boring, innit?

Pete and Amy came over in the afternoon - BY TRAIN from Princes Risborough - Jan and Jess followed on a couple of hours later and managed to fit the bed that Cathy had brought from Moodkee Street for Amy to use, into the Peugot and they all left together about 8-ish.

Love to y'all from a grateful DAD
