Hi Tina and Tom,
Happy New year to you both,this New Year seemed very strange to me,as We were going backwards in time on our journey home from NZ,and a;ways at new year your mind goes back to the last year,and you cannot help but ponder and reflect about the good and bad of the year,and wonder what the future year will hold.

the year 2011…[Read more]

Hi Suzy

I had an itchy rash after my SCT but it soon settled, I have had exma for many a year in the winter months and as I had SCT in December I was on top of it straight away.
Hope hubby is soon sorted.
