IV update and 1000km pictures

Quick health update: Isaac had his port successfully accessed Thursday, and so home IVs are now underway. Bloods indicate this is a bacterial exacerbation (his usual unwanted lodger, PseudomonasA) rather than fungal. Therefore plans for nebulised or IV anti fungals can go back on hold, which is a relief at this time, as either would necessitate time in hospital. Right now, he is coughing more, but this is typical of the start of IVs, clearing out the infected mucous. Otherwise, it’s going well. We have reasoned, there are worse times to having home IVs than in lockdown! 

Myself and a group of truly amazing friends and family are walking 1000km over January to raise much needed funds for the Cystic Fibrosis Trust. More than ever, charities need donations, and we need a cure for CF. To read more, and sponsor us, please click here. 

Pictures all the way from NZ (the lovely Vanessa) to the UK (the lovely Kay) and my foggy, flooded 10km today.

Keep well. Take care x x x 




River, flood or fog?
