| Haverhill willows cut down |
Beside Sainsbury’s is a wild park where oft I walk
the dogs. Or wild it was until the environmental tree cutters took their power saws to it. It had a fine line of mature willows following the stream in a vast acreage, now not
coppiced but savagely butchered along with the scrub land and surrounding tree
line. In whose name do they work such savagery? Certainly not for the wild life
nor we who walk here.
I phoned for my blood results this afternoon: they show mild renal failure and increasing anaemia. Probably explains why I get so breathless and tire so easily. Renal failure is certainly associated with bladder cancer, and may account for my severe itching and weakness also. I will start some iron tablets today, and see if they help.
