Day 370 – Monday 1st May 2006
Karen woke up in a strange physical state today. Her hip (right) was causing her big problems. She couldn’t walk without really contorting her body. It was the strangest thing. It’s as if her hip had dislocated a bit (obviously it hadn’t). She had got up in the night to take the breakthrough pain cocktail of Diclofenac and Codeine but was still in pain.
The only thing we could think of that has caused this is maybe I had slept with my leg over her right leg (no jokes about “getting my leg over” please) and that the weight of it had strained kp in some way ?!
I’ll be getting her up shortly (4pm) so we’ll see if it’s any different since the last time she got up (11am).
Anyway, she remembered my birthday which was nice. I got a lovely card and some sherbet dips. She must have got them with Ronnie (the other day). Aaaaaaaarrrrrrrrr
This day last year, kp was at death’s door and Dad had found her birthday card (for me) in Karen’s knicker draw.
I said to kp the other day that all I want for my birthday is “you”. And I meant it ! Anyone feeling nauseous yet ?
Her eyes have also been playing up today. Problems focussing, especially on the computer. Nice day, relaxing, but otherwise uneventful.

Ahhhh the old sweets are the best, don’t you agree Dp? Spoke to Kp about getting old at the weekend and we both agree that no one is allowed to remind us, or do anything special when we are 50. Thant sounds great don’t you think?
