Sweetcorn

The day of Zac’s stem cell transplant.  Seb and I watch as the frozen bag of cells is removed carefully from it’s cryogenic container, liquid nitrogen seeping from beneath it’s lid.  After defrosting, the bag is attached to Zac’s line and the infusion is done after about 45 minutes.  One unusual side effect is that after the transplant, Zac smelt strongly of tinned sweetcorn for about 2 days afterwards.  We haven’t been able to eat the stuff since.
