I guess that way they know you're covid-free and ready to roll when a liver appears.
Pity we can't pop in to cheer you up with a bag of grapes though.

(Or maybe, in your case, onions would be more appropriate :D )

Keep in touch if you can.
I assume the car is safe where it is then?

Hope you get sorted quickly Jock :thumbsup:

Quick tinternet search and it looks like bus route 114

https://www.traveline.info/ then enter 114 as the route and Cambridge as the locality.

Can't save the timetable as a jpeg on this PC to paste into this thread so you'll have to do it the long way!

[UPDATE]

Well that’s me back home from Addenbrookes and I’ve got myself onto the transplant list so unfortunately it’s now a waiting game for some poor soul who is compatible to pass away to allow the procedure to take place. Could be 2 days could be 4 months but I’ve been given that chance.

Physically I’m not that great all my muscles (if any) have gone so everything is exhausting!!!!!!!

Emotionally however, everyday is a roller coaster and not that pleasant especially someone loosing their life....

Car is safe outside my bedroom window but I fall in and out love with it everyday.

My wife and kids have been amazing as has very close friends ❤️❤️❤️

Many many thanks to you guys for your comments/ support. 👍

Peace x

Hopefully you won’t have to wait to long and you will be out zedding again.I carry a organ donor card with me ,in the event of my passing there might be some useful bits they can use.

Jock156

My best wishes for you...in a previous life we used to fly organs for transplants so became aware of some of the issues that arise from that process..so as you say it’s a waiting game...most likely to come when you least expect...

Hopefully the issue that sometimes happens of an unsuitable condition organ after the initial possible match confirms a potential transplant will not happen for you..

Hope it happens soon for you..

Best Peter

Good to hear from you - what makes you think the rest of us are getting out at the moment?

Few more months and maybe we can all sit down for a breakfast again here's hoping you're all sorted sooner rather than later.

Hi Jock

Glad to hear you're home for Xmas and have all the family to lean on.
Fingers crossed that you get sorted soon, though as you say, it's always at someone else's expense.
After all my time in the RAF and the social life that entailed, I doubt my liver would be much good to anyone any more, so don't be sending the assassins to Attleborough. :wink:

Offer still stands to look after the car for you if you are not in the mood/unable to/fed up looking at it, etc.

In the meantime, enjoy every day to the best of your abilities and make sure you keep looking in on us here. Always a good argument going on that you can have a giggle at.

Best wishes
Martin
