On way to hospital now for my first one feeling nervous and didn't sleep much lastnight! Thanks to Tilly for the advice I'm armed with lots of magazines and puzzles etc.
Will let you know how it goes when I get home :)

    I shall be thinking of you. I hope you just have a lovely, lazy day reading and doing your puzzles and the infusion is a great success.
    If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.
