Day 46 – Monday 13th June – Part Two

All settled in new ward

The new ward seems excellent. The staff have been very helpful and friendly and kp is happy in hew new location.

Before I forget, kp had a visitor this afternoon, (Tracey (spud) from work). She really enjoyed seeing her and kp was in good form. Tracey brought loads of gifts for kp and she was thrilled to bits with them all. Many Thanks Tracey !!

Marie, Jane and Michelle moved all kp’s belongings from ward to ward and Marie began the arduous task of redecorating kp’s room with all the cards, flowers, etc etc… after Jane and Michelle left.

The new room she has is a private room again and has its own HUGE toilet, which is great as additional storage space for kp’s chairbed, grand piano and 12-piece orchestra.

My earlier misgivings about the new ward were premature as they went out of their way to make kp feel welcome and at home. The nurse on the evening even asked me what’s the best way to make her comfy as kp had already told them that the family move kp when they are in. I thought this was very thoughtful.

They also said to kp that this is the last ward she will be in before she goes home. At this, kp got upset. I think she feels for the first time, that there is a light at the end of the tunnel.

Kevin (driver of the car kp was in) is emailing me photos of the car that they cut Kevin, Angela and Karen from. I will post them on the blog when I get them. He can’t believe they got them all out of there. I am very interested to see them.

She was very tired tonight and was falling asleep at 7.30pm. She wanted to stay awake until she took her tablets, and the nurses kindly brought them in earlier then they normally do at about 8.45pm.

I think she’ll sleep like a log.

    david, just a note to say,and i hope you dont mind me saying this its purely for your info,no malice intended! Mentioned to angela that you might publish photo of the car and she was a little concerned because its very personal to her (and of course to kp and kevin) and she wasnt sure she wanted the world to see it…maybe worth chatting to her or neil??????? Really hope this doesnt annoy you i know ive been a little bemused by the censoring so far but i feel i have to pass on what ang said,sorry if i got it at all wrong.
    Otherwise, lots of love and respect for you both, julie and i are thinking of you every day and severely missing karen back at the coal face, glad the humour still shines thro and is keeping you both going strong. love as always ciona xxxx
