Steve Jobs and the big blue chair
All going well.
I have been listening to the Steve Jobs biography and relaxing in the big blue chair. Its an interesting listen. Lazy, I know.
The room I am in is flooded in a strange light, it helps highlight the veins I guess. It’s hard to relax or sleep. 15 minute observations which although necessary and understandable start to grate a bit.
Plenty of activity and machines that go “bing”! Plenty of patients at various stages of their journey. All very sobering really.
Petra is here deciphering the nurse and drug speak which is magic. I just sit back and watch really. Not much to do.
Like the first time I have no immediate symptoms or reaction except for a strong burn in the back of my hand where the jungle juice enters.
Should be over by about 5 pm. Home for a rest and back tomorrow.
My Unplanned Sabbatical 
Best wishes Serg – Soph
Hi Serg, bon courage. Must say you look good in the photo with your very cool T-shirt!
On another matter, do you like opera and alike? Have you heard of Jose Carreras (one of the three tenors)? He went through a similar experience. I find his singing moving and his life inspiring. But then of course, I like opera!
Keep it up. Good luck for the next few days. Carmen
Hi Carmen
Thanks for your messages and suggestions. I really appreciate them. I am into music and my interests are really varied. I am enjoying a new stereo at the moment (one of my little addictions) and will give your recommendation a spin!
Stay well
Cheers
Hi Serg
As you probably know, Geoff Roberts kindly shared details of this blog with us today. I picked it up whilst attending a conference and during a less than stimulating presentation read each of your posts. In totality I see many positive signs – may that continue of course.
Hey, Dan Mooney a friend of yours from a different era sends his warm regards. My 5 year old boy and his are buddies from creche and kinder and now prep this year.
Best
Thanks Tony
Appreciate it.
Dan Mooney that is a blast from the past. Please send him my regards. Remind him of our time in Beijing together, that Chinese National
gymnastics performance we attended together was really something!!!
Cheers
Dan did mumble something about a China trip Serge and then quickly thought better of it and changed subject with a cheeky grin in place. Hmmm, my curiosity is aroused…..
Serg, I just wanted to say that I love your attitude. Despite the up and down days you clearly have an overwhelming sense of positivity about each day and the journey. Its really inspirational and a true reference for what’s important. Will continue to follow with interest.
And how easy is this blog!!

Cheers Michael
Hey Duch – as always, checking in with your blog late at night (you know I am an insomniac so that makes it the last thing I read before some ridiculous hour!). Trust the day has been not too bad. Glad to hear Petra is taking control of the medics. Forza!
Catch up soon.

Nice to know that you have an amazing personal nurse, whom you can understand. and even better you can take her home 😉
Best wishes all the best for day 2!
