As we said previously, it needed a strong soul to go through this, make notes on where the journey you were being forced to take as the illness progressed, and now be able to go back over it in an effort to help others. And never mind about the madness, in one way or another we are all alittle mad at times – no, let’s make that most of the time.
Love, Nola and Hal.

The boxes were placed in Chemist shops for the use of people returning Bowel Scan testing kits.
I returned one such kit today (15/06/2013) and was delighted to see that Bill’s boxes are still being used.
Bill’s box-building friend has commented to me that he detected no sign of dementia in Bill over the weeks that they were building those boxes but I do remember that that friend had to make a template for Bill to work from because he could no longer measure and he remembers that Bill was experiencing a lot of problems with language.
