Day 43 – Friday 10th June – Part Two
Bad Afternoon
Poor Marie copped another bad afternoon. kp had diarrhoea and sickness and had an aching hip and legs from the physio this morning. Poor kp as well of course.
When Marie left, Michelle, Yvonne and Dave took over until I arrived at 7pm. More sickness and diarrhoea.
When I arrived, everything was fine. Cheesy Grin Time !
I had brought a photo of the dogs in with a title saying “We miss you !!” and thought it would cheer kp up.
It didn’t. She spontaneously got upset and started crying 
She misses them terribly.
At the handover whilst kp was still dozing, Michelle informed me that a nice Doctor had been in and chatted to Karen for 5-10 minutes. Nothing medical, just a nice chat. He had said we can bring her alcohol in if she wants a glass of wine/beer or something or we could wheel her outside for a cigarette. That was very nice of him. He was obviously unaware that kp only drinks Champagne and doesn’t smoke now 
kp stayed asleep until just before Michelle + Co. departed, and just before they left, I played them the recording I made earlier on of me and kp singing. (This is available now via Day 43 Part One). Michelle and Yvonne were in hysterics and kp started laughing whilst emerging from her nice slumber.
It was a nice way to end their visit.
Nothing much happened after their departure. I gave kp a couple of leg moves and she slept pretty much my whole visit. I left at 9pm with a kp in slumberland.

Hi Karen (and others)
I’ve listened to the recording again, so funny! Karen getting her Can the Can mixed up with Devil Gate Drive. I didn’t think you’d get bloody Chicory Tip and Barry Blue and you pulled them out of the bag first time!
You know Karen – that doctors right about the old alcohol, I was told the odd tipple of wine was good for you after any operations on the bones – like yours. Someone did some research on it and those that participated in the odd tipple after an op recovered quicker. It’s true, I’m being serious, although I know I’ve continued to take the advice too literally since my op’s.
I think us bloggers should have renditions from some of “the others” for the next quiz. Come on you lot get stretching those vocal cords! Karen all you need to do is listen to Jane singing to know you haven’t “lost your voice”
Thanks for the recording Dp – as always you’ve come up with the goods, perhaps your true musical vocation is more suited to the recording studio, where you can still exercise your musical creativity.
Great stuff, Karen you are doing so well. Keep going with the exercises, please, please!!!
Lots of love
Veronica
