    Now at library on a laptop!!!
    Still cream crackered after yesterday it has to be said.

    Saw a multi disciplinary team.
    Dr, nurse, physio, pharmacist & phlebotomist over a 3 1/2 period.
    Youngest there by a large margin.
    Outcomes were drugs tweaked slightly, a fatigue management referral & rereferral to local physio.
    We shall see.
    Hope to get broadband reconnected by the end of the week.

    hope all my lovely readers are well & happy.

    Thats very powerful, beanie, especially in the context of Dunblane. I think about those little ones - Andy Murray was one of the ones who sheltered in the headmaster's study, wasn't he? Each and every human life is precious of course, but knowing that Murray was there makes me think, who did we lose? Who have we lost, without ever knowing it, who would have maybe changed the course of the world, written an amazing book, *something*. Gone now.

    Anyway, you're off to the falls clinic today? I hope it goes well.

    Yes, he was in the headmasters study.
    He certainly went on to make it count.
    Yes, I often reflect on how those little people would have gone on to live their lives.
    I always feel for Sophie North's dad who had already lost his wife. He was a lecturer at Stirling.He maintained such dignity as did everyone.
    The former headmaster came over very powerfully in the documentary last week.
