Came in (8.30am) to a fast asleep kp today. Took her 15-20 mins to come round.

Bacon/Beans Toasted Sandwich for breakfast followed by a 90 minute snooze. I had a 30-min kip myself on the hard floor. She wouldn’t let me get in the bed with her.

She had a really itchy/sweaty back and was gagging for a bath. She is only supposed to have them alternate days at the moment (to allow the buttock wound to heal), but she really wanted a bath despite this, so we did the bath thing.

After the bath, she had the idea of putting her own nighty on. This is a real big thing to Karen, I am surprised at how big. She even rates it over the standing experience yesterday. So I hoisted her into the big chair (with the bed in front of her (for her hands)), and sat her upright and she proceeded to put her nighty on. I helped very little and she sorted it !!

She was over the moon, and I can see this being a regular occurrence (may be a spelling mistake there mother).

Michelle and Adele arrived at 1pm and we had some good crack with them. kp was doing some real belly laughs as we recounted some amusing hospital stories.

We have found a way of making the bed work without the electrics (thanks to last night’s nurses). I gave it a try and nearly projected kp into the room next door. kp and the girls were in hysterics at the speed with which kp went from lying to sitting. Apparently kp’s face was a picture.

That’s it for Part One.
