As it was I had plenty of time to ponder on the morning's happenings. I waited in the hospital car park for 6 hours. Not being allowed in with Bree, because of Covid restrictions. I caught up with emails, read all of my Twitter feed, took a picture of the new Nightingale Hub being built,…
I can not believe the events of the last couple of weeks. I really can't. I am an absolute maelstrom of emotional and physical pain.
