Birthday cakes just out of the oven, packed my toothbrush and I'm basking in the warm thoughts and wishes that are coming in from all over.

Thank you.

Ready to leave in just over an hour.

Mr Malaprop and Mrs Propermal will come in tomorrow and be there while the transplant takes place. But there is no Wifi on the ward so the blog will have to wait. Next installment probably on Monday.
