The first full day at home and it’s been quite difficult to fit in all the exercises between naps!
Although she has to walk every 20 minutes, I’ve generally not managed to wake her up enough to do that. I think it’s going to take quite a few days to get over the effects of the anaesthetic. Walking is also slightly difficult because her good leg has developed a bad knee!
After a long afternoon snooze we walked up the drive and leaned on the wall where we watched Alan stacking the newly baled hay.
Sally has arrived so we cooked a delicious team roast chicken dinner. After a day’s handover I will be heading off back to Reading tomorrow and Sally will be in charge.
I was going to have this post approved before I pressed publish, but Mum has nodded off.
Hi Sally, welcome to Ashgrove Care Facility :-). Seems you have your hands full with the rehab regiment. Also, after closer inspection of the coming home photo below its safe to say you aren’t get near those remotes with each one perfectly in place for rapid fire channel changing. Gillian sure do like the looks of your new furniture suite :-). Wishing you continued improvement…..oh and don’t trying pulling any fast ones with Sally…..she’s been fully prepped by Susie :-). Great job Susie! Love, Sherri
Hi Sherri, Well my first day has nearly finished! The main battle is keeping Mum awake – but her regular snoozes do allow me to pinch the remote control from time to time!! Tomorrow will see the return of Meg so there’ll be double trouble! I think looking after Mum will be the easy bit! All the best, Sally
