CAUTION: GORY PHOTOS IN BLOG
With sepsis and streptococcus infection to my leg, I could have died.
Merci beaucoup Doctors Sylvain Rouches and Lisa McIlwraith. Merci New Caledonia’s health system, Allianz Insurance and SPC.
Merci beaucoup to Rebecca for her care, my friends and everyone in the health care system who saved my life🙂
Special mention to Paul Judd who visited me every day, and had the unfortunate duty of riffling through my underpants cupboard to bring me some “smalls”.
Thank you also to Caroline Ton, who was a frequent visitor and who brought me healthy and unhealth treats, but didn’t want her pictures shown 🙂
And thank you all who help me through this dreadful experience 🥲

Even when the nurses had to remove dead skin, there was always time for some humour:
My Carers
My friends ❤️
Just catching up on your posts – wow, that’s nasty looking infection – good to see you are over it! Jx
Thanks John – yes, it was certainly a doozy, and I pretty much lost all of May from it. But it’s back to close to normal(ish).
I hope all is good in yours and the family’s hood, and everyone is healthy and winning at university, school and local politics. 🙂
And yes same leg for anyone who’s asking🙂
