Day 69 - Wednesday 6th July - Part One

Good Night's Sleep. Didn't wake up until I arrived in the morning.

Within moments of waking, she felt the aches and pains resulting from the x-ray moves yesterday. They stayed with her all morning. Any movement caused some pain/discomfort. I tried to persuade kp to have her first full real bath, but she wanted to be on top form so she could enjoy it, which is understandable so that will be another day.

Bedbath and Snooze for us both until physios arrived. Use of the hoist to get kp in a chair is much easier for all concerned including Karen.

The physio was hard given her aches and pains but she put on a good show.

Her left shoulder is very stiff which in turn restricts the amount of movement she can do in her left arm and moving her head. So she has to practice looking left and right every so often to try and loosen it up.

One of the doctors came to see if Karen wanted any more pain medication to alleviate some of the pain, but kp said she was ok. He also mentioned that Dr Cross (Sunderland back consultant) will be coming tomorrow to check kp over.

Excellent.
