Drug dealing on Friday 13th

So, H has just told me that he has taken delivery of our IVF drugs at home. Apparently, the box they arrived in isn't too large, but he's had a peek in it and it's full of needles! Of course, I expected that, but Yikes all the same!

One of the drugs, the HcG trigger shot that you have to take last of all to ripen the eggs just prior to egg collection, has to be kept in an ice-box within the 'fridge. I bet H is thinking back to five years ago before we met when his 'fridge was filled with nothing other than a few cans of lager and and some cheese. Now the lager has been replaced by a vial of powerful hormones that he will have to jab his wife with in about 4 weeks' time. How things change, eh?

I'm impatient to finish work and get home to have a good look at the box of tricks. I've been advised that it can be a bit overwhelming when you see all of the drugs together, so a good thing to do is to separate all of the different types of drugs into different bags so that you only have to deal with one set at a time. So that'll be my Friday night.

Just thought - it's Friday 13th today. If I was superstitious that would not be good. But I'm not, so it's ok!
