Day 760 – 764. Monday 28th May to Friday 1st June 2007
Off to Lake Garda from tomorrow morning onwards, so quick blog update.
Things I can remember from this week. kp feels “ashamed” about her disabilities. That’s the only word she could come up with to describe how she feels. That was on one of the lower days of the week.
She has been preparing for her hols next week by getting her hair cut, and last night I had to sort her bikini line, shave her pits and legs, and scrub her with some scouring pads (exfoliating) in readiness for her spray tan today. She is being pampered today as well. (nails and stuff)
Mum and Dad came for dinner on Wednesday night. That was nice.
Two Hydros and a Physio this week. No more hydros. She was due one more, but has swapped it for a physio.
We got a letter yesterday from the DVLA advising us that kp has to have a field vision test in the next 3 weeks, otherwise they revoke her driving licence. She is booking that today for when we get back.
The neuropsychiatrist phoned last night to discuss kp’s mood swings and to arrange for a weekly visit with someone. kp got a bit confused in the call, so she is writing it all down in a letter.
Generally, a good week. The tiredness seems to be subsiding a bit.

Hi Karen and David, I hope you have a fantastic holiday in Lake Garda, it is meant to be beautiful.
Sorry I haven’t been in touch, I am hopeless, all good intentions but the days just go. I am genuinely sorry I have been so crap lately, especially as you have been so down. I hope the holiday lifts your spirits.
We are all ok here, trying to get everything sorted out at home before the baby arrives in about 5 weeks! We definitely won’t have moved house by then. Mark is still working too hard but he is ok. Megan has been on half term this week so we have been trying to get out each day.
Hope you have a great time,and to catch up after your hols
thinking of you often, lots of love, Tracey xxx
