FL went to the hospital on his own, and it worked out fine. He didn't even have to wait long for his infusion.
However...
- he did get a ticket for parking illegally in a staff space (for a full ten minutes!)
- he did met his ex-wife in the chemist on the way there
Absolutely typical. He hasn't bumped into her for many many months and it had to be on the one day I was not escorting him to an appointment. Clearly the "new model" is a flighty young woman who doesn't look after him properly. Sigh. However, it amused me greatly that she advised him to take a bus to the hospital, rather than drive!
This would involve driving to the nearest town (15 minutes), waiting for a bus (up to half an hour), taking said bus all the way to the hospital (one and a half hours) and then walking across the hospital - the bus stop is at the opposite end of the "campus" from Haematology. And reverse the process to get home. It would take all day! Even thinking about it wears me out.
Ach sod it - who cares what she thinks anyway!
So he was quite cheerful last night. Lots of news about his children in Australia via the ex-wife. I wish they would ring him or write, but I suppose you can't have everything.

Ahh, do not get riled. It's okay - I have come to the conclusion that 2nd wives are designed to inhabit a different dimension from 1st wives - I do not think that we are really intended to understand each other.
I get the impression that I perplex the Fella's first wife - in my case, I think that she finds it difficult to understand what I, or any woman for that matter, would want to do with the man that she left - let alone like him enough to export myself to his country in order to be with him.
I get the feeling that this has coloured her perception of me.
That's okay; I do not mind. All I know is that the Fella suits me.
Just goes to show you how out of touch some people are about immuno-compromised health situations... I cannot fathom that putting someone with MM on a BUS would be better than fighting some pointless ticket... here's an idea, get FL to ask the court to show what damage he caused by parking for a SHORT time so that he could make his appointment and not delay others who might have even more critical issues than he has... mercy!
