Late, and writing anyway.

Iron and B12 both low. Treated. The difference in a fortnight was not subtle.

Improved.

Everything stable. She said come back in a year. I have never had a come-back-in-a-year before.

Bloods back. Unremarkable, she said, which is a word I had never once heard applied to me.

A1c down. I looked at the number for a long time and then rang my mother, which surprised us both.

Until next time.
