Day 308 – Thursday 2nd March 2006

Shortish blog today, given most of the action will be tonight when Jane and Ronnie converge on Chez Pollard.

Karen woke up with a bit of a stiff left shoulder, and we both feared that it may be on its way back with a vengeance. But I gave her a 10-minute ralgex rub (massage) and it seemed to fend it off.

At 12pm, we had a visit from kp’s boss and personnel to discuss kp and her situation at work. They brought flowers, which was nice, and started by asking how kp was. They seemed to understand it will be a long recovery, but at the same time, they have to think of the practicalities of the situation. Karen did very well taking everything in, and although she had to ask for a repeat of some information, she seemed to take it all in and I hardly had to do any talking. She got a little upset and there were a few tears, when they hinted about ill health retirement effectively ruling out her return to work. kp (and I) feels she needs to keep hold of her aim to go back to work. Ruling it out just shuts a door in her face and she doesn’t want to hear doors slamming at the moment.

With the meeting over, you can probably guess what happened next. Sleep. She has been asleep since about 2pm. I need to get her up shortly in time for the arrival of Jane and Ronnie. Chinese tonight.
