Day 401 – Wednesday 31st May 2006
A better day today.
First of all, a few things I forgot from yesterday.
Corset – Apparently, kp will have to wear a corset for a weeks after her op. Should be a laff !
Going to Die – kp is convinced she is going to die in the upcoming operation, obviously I have reassured that she won’t, but I still don’t think she is convinced.
Helping Hands – I was doing something yesterday, and all I could hear was cups clattering and dropping. I thought she was emptying the top shelf of the dishwasher or something. It turns out she was using her “helping hands”. This is a device that she has been given that help her get things from the floor or high places. It’s a pair of grips with a long handle and a trigger. It turns out she was trying to get a cup down for a cup of tea. Well, she definately got a cup down. I think I counted 2 or 3 on the floor when I went in
So, today, kp is feeling more positive. Angela came round for a natter.
It was good to catch up on how she is dealing with everything, how our solicitors are faring etc etc…..
And then Marie, Michelle and Ethan arrived with lunch. The sisters spent most of the time gabbing in the back garden (it was a lovely day).
Unsurprisingly, Ethan wasn’t that keen talking with the oldies and was more interested in battering people and wrecking cars in an Xbox game. Sorry about this photo. But if you look carefully, you can see the person he was playing in the game on the tv screen.
Tomorrow it’s hydro and then more bathroom showrooms. :-!
