I’m friends with Rod Neep (Pens of the forest and brush maker). Many of us on here know Rod for his excellent brushes. He’s posted this afternoon that he has been peeing blood and worms. This is a quote from his post.
“I need prayer, folks.
It appears that I have a parasitic worm which could only have come from my visits to Kenya (last visit 11 years ago). It can remain dormant for up to 30 years! Schistosomiasis, which you can look up on Google if you wish. Sunday morning I started peeing blood and it has been the same since, together with some ugly worms 1" (2.5cm) long. Monday I saw the doctor and had urine and blood tests. Results through today show significant kidney damage. The doctor has made an appointment for me to see a tropical disease specialist at Southmead hospital in Bristol tomorrow.“
I will spare you the photos, I have wished him well. Poor fella stopped the brush making due to ill health, now this.
