Bruce Anderson is at home but not at work. It is an anxious time. A low-fat diet, telephone calls and frequent trips from Colchester to Harefield are a heavy financial burden. Although Kay Anderson now goes out to work, one by one family heirlooms are sold to pay the bills.

Peter Lobo continues to maintain the perilous equilibrium between infection and rejection. He too is building a new life at home, which is much interrupted by regular and worrying setbacks.

In East Lothian, the [text removed] family are also adjusting to a new life. Peter Lobo is alive only because 17-year-old Hazel [text removed] died in a road accident.
