Roll on 2018


The Fox’s reprieve was very short-lived. The rash, & with it the itchiness & pain, has got yet worse again. Now, his arms, legs, hands are all covered with spots. On parts of his scalp there are weeping sores. His backside is more red than white. All is very uncomfortable.

We’ve been going out, seeing friends, as much to provide some distraction – anything to get away from that rash.

We’re counting the days until Tuesday. Then we can get on the phone & hopefully expedite his hospital appointment. Friends have suggested he should go to A&E but that seems pointless when we are pretty certain Dermatology is closed for the holidays. Equally we could go back to the GP but he’s already seen two different ones & neither had a clue as to what is wrong. He needs specialist advice & help & that can’t come until Dermatology is back working again. It’s been going too long, over a month now.

Oh roll on the days.
