Tales from the Tinyholding. Big ideas from a little garden. Tales and stories of how we make the most of our garden and our terraced house. Wednesday, 5 September 2012.

He was born with a blocked portal vein feeding his liver and over time his liver deteriorated because of this. He was prone to internal bleeding and ascites.
