Day 189 - Thursday 3rd November
Uneventful day.
Whilst I run the bath for kp, she washes her face and cleans her teeth. She now tries to hold the toothbrush in her left hand as she puts the toothpaste on.
When I returned to pick kp up for the bath, she had toothpaste all over her left hand. She had no idea until I pointed it out. She tutted and laughed.
After the bath, we went to Sainsburys to get a few supplies in as physio wasn't until 2.30pm.
Lovely snooze followed Sainsburys.
Physio followed snooze - It was mostly hand/arm work on the table in front of her. But, to finish, the main man did the moonwalking experience, where he grabs Karen by her hips from behind and moves them in a random fashion and kp ends up moon dancing across the physio room. Funny to watch.
Physio over, kp walked back to her room with no stick :-). Marie had made the bed and tidied the room. We only had to wait for drugs before we were off for the weekend. We only had to wait a few minutes before the nurses came to check the drugs off. They were happy with them.
We came home only to find there are only enough drugs for 3 days, which means either kp needs to go back Sunday afternoon or we need to go in for drugs. :-(
We just don't seem to have any luck with drugs at all. :-(
Marie and kp had a good natter when we got home, before Marie went for the bus home.
kp went straight to bed after Marie left, not to sleep, but to rest her eyes. REST HER EYES MY ARSE !
She wants Egg, Beans and Chips for tea. It's a craving she has. Her wish will be fulfilled.
ok, bloggers..........It is confirmed............
kp is coming home next Thursday afternoon. Everyone is welcome. There will be food, alcoholic and not so alcoholic beverages on hand for all attendees. We have confirmed a morning physio session, which means we should get away about 12.30pm to 1pm. So, if you would like to come, please do.
So we can plan the food accordingly, please could you text me on 07973461875 if you are coming. For those that I know that are coming already, obviously you don't need to text. Everyone is welcome, from kp's work colleagues, to blog readers we don't even know about, to those we do, to kp's real friends, pretend friends, and family. Staff from the Q.E. who have cared for Karen are PARTICULARLY welcome.
For directions, give me a ring.
I would suggest a 1pm (latest) arrival for guests and I will make sure kp doesn't get there before then. There will be someone at the house from 12pm.
The more the merrier.
