Early blog this week, ‘cos we’re off to Spain for a week tomorrow.

Monday saw kp a little low to start the day, but nothing dire. Nat came and the girls went to South Shields for a shop and some refreshments. It helped.

The solicitor came over on the afternoon to discuss the case. Is an end in sight ? Well, you’d think we’d hope so, but I am not too sure it will be a positive thing. In a way, it will be the end of a mammoth 4+ years struggle and kp can “move on”, but I can’t help but feel it will be a time when the hell of the last 4 years HAS to be brought up, and will bring kp down. The meeting with the solicitor gave us a taster. As she was updating us on various things, kp got quite upset. She finds this kind of thing very overwhelming, understandably. It is hard reliving how things happened in the accident etc etc…..

kp does best when she is focussed forward, not backwards, and we have to try and keep it that way if at all possible.

Anyway, kp felt better after the solicitor left, which was great and the week got better and better.

Tuesday, and Nat took kp to physio for a session focussing on her hips. Steve joined them for lunch afterwards which was nice and they all enjoyed it by all accounts.

Wednesday saw kp get her hair and nails done in preparation for the holiday. She remained in good form.

And today, kp will be going for her swimming lesson at Whickham Villa plus a meeting with her OT. We also have to fit packing in somewhere.

Big thanks to Marie for dog-sitting while we are away !

Spain here we come.
