Well, I must be doing something right!
Five years into my rare leukaemia (CMML-1) life expectancy 20 months, I did a blood test on Monday. I keep all of them in a spread sheet. Here's a snap of this March compared to a year ago

Letter to my GP:
Dear Sirs,
I’ve no idea to whom I should address this as the text message I’ve received simply says, “The GP”. How impersonal. I therefore have no choice but to leave this, similarly, impersonal.
The text message I received this morning refers to a request
I’ve never felt so humbled in my life. Nor have I ever felt so embraced. I said literally nothing. I merely shared this shocking document with the rest of my fellow citizens - and the response has been overwhelming.
Three quarters of a million people have read that message. Thank
This man can’t possibly be this stupid, ergo he’s lying. To start with, the NHS has never, ever been voted the best in the world. Secondly the government doesn’t run the NHS. The NHS does. They’re shit, in every possible way. Don’t listen to this liar with his stupid stethoscope

Yesterday I was at my local TESCO’ store buying a large bag of Winalot dog food for my loyal pet and was in the checkout queue when a woman behind me asked if I had a dog.

That’s the way it was set up in 1948, the doctors insisted on it. If they were truly independent businesses, I wouldn’t be having this problem. It’s the socialist NHS ethos that poisons normal relationships to clients.
