26.03.22 – Liver – versary

Its been 4 years since my transplant! Can you believe that? I ended up looking after my first split liver transplant patient on the day of my Liver-versary a couple of weeks ago. It was an honour to do so. I didn’t end up telling the patient about what the day meant to me but […]

07.09.20 – Post-lockdown

Let’s face it, 2020 hasn’t been the best year, but I’m glad we are now in a better position. I’ve been back to work for a few weeks now since since lockdown began. It’s getting a bit tiring now. I’ve started to get home feeling either drained or defeated. Even though things have normalised a […]

26.03.20 – Very High Risk

After Boris’s message last week, as a very high risk person, I was sent a text message advising me on what stringent guidelines to follow. After receiving this message I decided to drive back home again. I returned last week because I wasn’t mentally prepared to go back. Being at home is a reminder of […]

12.12.19 – Too Soon

I regret to say that I ended up overdoing it last week! Thinking that I’d be ready to start exercising after 9 weeks post op, I thought I could give the gym a go. Going wasn’t the mistake, it’s what I did at the gym that was the mistake. After having an abdominal operation, you’d […]
