Glad you've got a little guinea. I have 6 guineas and they are certainly little characters and very loving and vocal. We have had lots of guineas lots of chinchillas (but currently 3 of those) and 2 parrots. They always make me smile, which is particularly good on a bad day. Hope you're doing OK still. Alastair is right slow and steady progress is what you need. Jen |

Hi Lyssie, Glad all has gone well for you. That is indeed an impressive image of your spine. You were in very good hands at the RNOH. As you say mr Wilson is a great surgeon and so is Mr Tucker by all accounts. Hope you continue to do well and go from strength to strength. Love Josie xx |
