Bearing in mind our epic journey to get to Bled, we thought it would be worth checking out Bled to make sure that we knew just where the clinic was and get as much info as possible. We had been in touch with the wonderful Martyna Fon, who arranges English speaking seminars and treatment at the clinic in addition to translation, via Facebook. It was Martyna who advised us the clinic was no longer held in Bohinj but in Bled and Martyna who had offered us one of her places for treatment in the likely event that we could not get a place. The clinic doesn’t charge for treatment but there are waiting lists of around 6 months as some 200 patients per day come in search of treatment. It was Martyna who we now saw for the first time standing with her group in the reception of Hotel Lovec on the night before the clinic.
We recognised Martyna from her Facebook photo and smiled and, after a very brief pause, she came out to greet us. She explained the format for the next day and we had a chat before heading off, thoroughly thrilled, back to our campsite some 45 minutes walk away.
