Friday 13th

After 2 frustrating visits to the doctor, I finally managed to see a doctor who gave me all the results (expected and unexpected) from the little growths that were removed from my face, as well as the precautionary blood tests that were done. The growths on my face were benign, but my liver is only functioning at 87%, and my kidneys are also not functioning properly. Even though I don't feel particularly unwell, I have a high white cell count - indicating an infection. The doctors seemed unperturbed by the decreasing functioning of my body parts - they say it is a normal part of growing old. Other than increased tiredness, I don't feel very different from what I did a year ago.
I have passed my "best by" date, and can now happily look forward to my "expiry date", which God says He has already decided on.
