I have had a day off, a busy day. Right now I am working with the last details before printing. My book is about Fredrik, his life and his relation to his dear daughter Greten and family. That life can be difficult to control, and to realise that biology is sometimes not easy to understand.
I have worked quite a lot with pharmacology and sometimes I miss the Department of pharmacology in Gothenburg. That is why I have written this book where pharmacology plays a little role. The book is mainly taking place in Uppsala where I have studied myself. It has reminded me of various courses I took at that time. I like languages a lot, and I must admit that it has been a challenge to write in my own maternal language. Swedish. Therefore, this is an attempt to unite pharmacology with humanities.
Today I thought of Greten, Fredrik’s daughter. She learns early that life is unpredictable and in a way impossible. Sorry, I cannot reveal more about Greten. During many years I have not know what kind of blood group (A, B, AB or 0) and also what antigen (Rhesus positive or negative) I belong to. To get that information you have to donate blood. So, today I went to see a clinic. I had to measure my Hb (hemoglobin) which is located in the erythrocytes, and that was fine. Then, I could go to next step and to fill in a health declaration. I am now tested for viruses and I have to wait a few weeks to see the results. Then I will donate.
I am happy that my inflammation is rather ok now. I am on training again. That was also part of my day. Back on track.
