Anyone who follows the OiNK Blog’s socials will know I was recently admitted to hospital with a very bad infection and work on the website was temporarily paused as a result. Add to this the fact a dear friend also became very ill recently (unrelated) and it’s been a hell of a few weeks. We’re both on the mend now, although I’m going to take a few more days to fully come around as I’m still exhausted pretty much all of the time. I’m home though and resting up.

I’ll hopefully start getting caught up on the blog’s posts next week. In the meantime, thank you all for your messages and a huge thank you as well to the wonderful NHS Belfast Royal Hospital and the Celerion medical research staff who got me through this. In particular, while the infection had nothing to do with the Celerion trial I was on, I just wanted to make sure I thanked the doctors and nurses there who really went above and beyond with me, whose aftercare has been so good, and who really helped me get to the bottom of it all.

Hopefully see you all next week, pig pals.
