Well here we are again. When we got to the hospital today (Saturday) David was very much better than he had been on Friday. He was much more lucid and together. The nurse came to take a blood sample and ended up taking it from his foot as his veins have "sunk". He was able to listen to the football results on his radio and maintain his concentration and he said he had also been able to read a few pages of his book. I had taken the where with all to give him a manicure and a pedicure which I am not sure he enjoyed very much but the job needed doing!! I was very happy that he was so much better than when I had left him. He said that his scan had been put back until Wednesday at which time they will be able to see whether the leak has healed itself. After that a decision will be taken as to the next course of action but it would appear that he is going to be in hospital for at least another week. Ah me more journies across the Solent.
David is very keen to get back blogging again and cannot wait to gets his fingers back on the keyboard. Goodness knows what pearls he will provide.
When we left him this evening he was being taken for a walk with all of his wires and bags attached. I received a text from him whilst on the homeward ferry to say that he had been able to walk along the exit corridor and back and I have no doubt that he will have been visualising his eventual escape along that same corridor.
It is time I was in bed so I had better stop blogging until next time. Hoping for more progress on Sunday.
