Day 3 - Training:

Yup, just as I thought it would go! Arrived at the hospital around 10.30 a.m. and waited until 11.15 before anything happened. Once again we were taken to the ward and asked to simulate one full dialysis cycle...which I just about did with my eyes closed, and only infected myself once. That itchy nose thing again.

After that, the Sister officially concluded that training was over; either because we were by now adept, or because she was going on leave that day for a trip to Australia. I returned to the renal unit to have a few stitches removed (from the camera-insert cut). I was then free to roam my last week as a transplant patient.
