I've never been too thrilled by the idea of exercise for its own sake although I faithfully follow the Pilates shown to me by the physio in the Transplant Unit in Edinburgh.Somehow, I'm not fully awake until they're done!

My response to Covid-19 and all its works is to start dancing again..I searched on the internet for all my favourite dance tunes from my youth; just pick your favourite decade ( mine is a secret!) and compile a playlist. It's great exercise and the memories of happy days just come flooding back.

When my husband saw me dancing to 'This Old Heart of Mine'( and that's a giveaway!) he said he could hardly believe that only a few years ago I was at death's door. We should never forget the miracle of transplant and the gift we have been given. Good times will come again when we won't have to dance alone. I know it.

Can I also make a small request? The Covid 19 stream is now becoming so large that we are all receiving many emails each day. It's lovely to hear from everyonebut could we keep this stream purely for Covid 19 issues? In itself it is a huge subject and likely to get bigger as time goes on. Thanks to all.
