One week on .....
This time last week Barbara was still in hospital and the diagnosis was not yet confirmed. One week later look how far we've progressed! Barbara is noticably more conversant now and, I can confirm, taking calls so dial away. She reads out aloud to me and both pronounciation and intenation are getting much better. With a good (normalized) blood test result today, I think we've ended the week in great shape and Barbara can now cruise ahead with her recovery with ease, I feel. Obviously still some work to do and she needs to take life a little easy stil, but Barbara is not complaining on the latter!
Meanwhile Ian enjoyed the spectacular weather here again today. 100 degrees with a similar weekend in store. Barbara has promised a photo of herself and Bumper Boy for Saturday's posting, so tune in again on Sunday.
