[Magdalen] Update 2

[Lesley de Voil]

Commiserations, Dan, and praying that you get some relief soon.
When a relieving (ha!) dentist gave me a new local anaesthetic in the
area of the joint of the jaw, the whole side of my face swelled up
painfully. It felt as though I had been hit by the side of a bus, and
lasted weeks, and appeared to have been an allergic reaction to the
anaesthetic. Hope you are feeling better soon and that Tuesday comes
and goes uneventfully!

Regards
Lesley de Voil
