IS IT JUST ME?

Wed 22 August 2018

It’s time to pack and my new swimming costume lies on the bed. Sadly it has a better figure than I do.

We still believe that there is a genetic component and also a linkage between a subclinical bacterial infection around the implant and the development of ALCL.
