Some interesting news. To various countries in which this little blog is being read, I can add Switzerland. Hello to Kathy and Brian a couple we met in New Zealand in January.
It's been something of a mixed day. I had a much better night now I am getting used to the bag. Bowel movement has also continued. Today we had to go and collect the car from the garage. The guy told us that the reason the front nearside and rear offside wheels were taken was that it was easier for the crooks to balance the car without using bricks.
My brother and sister in law are coming to see us at the weekend so on the way to the garage we called at a farm food shop to get in some supplies. This was the first time this week I had strayed too far from home(unless of course you count the visit to A and E). I also had to drive the car home as Ev was in another car. I got the car home okay but then I felt a little like I had run into a wall. On reflection I should have realised that when I hadn't been feeling all that grand something as trivial as that could make me tired. I haven't been that hungry through this whole episode but at Lunchtime I really felt sick. I carried out my resolution to eat something which I duly did but that was a real effort.
There was and is one other thing on my mind. It started this morning when I attempted to eat a nice juicy and soft nectarine. That is my favourite fruit. Yet even cutting it into very small pieces it was still a struggle to digest. Now move forward to the farm shop. It contained all kinds of goodies that I like and at times past I would have bought. However most of things on display I would currently struggle to eat. This is of course a fact of life and there are many many people much worse off than me with things they can or can't consume but it nevertheless is a sobering thought.
Hopefully tomorrow I shall be able to if you will pardon the expression to pee under my own steam. It reminds me of a sign at the entrance to the Urology Ward at Shrewsbury Hospital. It reads "to pee or not to pee that is the question."
