Saw Dr. Grooge ((maybe Dr Yaroogsky-Erooga?)) on Wednesday at the clinic and then Prof Digby on Thursday morning with the result that I am now in Tweed Bay Hospital expecting to go through an operation for my piles. I came in on Saturday evening and was put in ward 3 temporarily. This afternoon I transferred to ward 1, the surgical ward. I've had castor oil, salts, my bottom shaved and so on, but as I still have wet beriberi and am anaemic tho' I don't look it, but I Have lost a lot of blood, the operation has been postponed for another week to enable me to pick up a bit and recover from the beri-beri.
