I got home just before 8.00pm. Phoned Kendall - he's finally had something to eat, the hives are just about gone and he's had something to ease the sore throat.

We saw an allergist this afternoon who doesn't think that it's the lidocaine but could be the stuff that they soak the scopes in. They will be doing tests while he's in and we will go back for a follow up in about a month. He is certainly being well cared for there.

He has the operation at about 5pm tomorrow, but the doctor says that it should only be a ten minute procedure. I shall stay there until he comes round and then come back home so it might be a bit of a late post tomorrow.

I'm taking the laptop in tomorrow so Kendall may be able to post, so long as he's not feeling too grouchy for lack of food - he's nil by mouth from midnight tonight!

Kat - the package arrived today so he'll get it when he comes home.

Dan - Kendall's son in law stayed at the house to make sure the package was dealt with properly. Many thanks.

Love to all of you. Your posts mean a lot to both of us.
