paul99 Posted October 10, 2008 Author Share Posted October 10, 2008 hi everyone it started of very quite lin was in bed and not very with it she was not in the chair it turned out the staff had forgotten to put lin in it however i think lin needed the day to recover yesterday but it was still nice to see her relaxed and sleeping peacefully i changed her boots on and off they are to stop toe drop because she hasnt used her legs for a while and therefore lost muscle tone but i took the commpression stockings of to massage her legs and feet with lanolin just because i know she loved it when she was awake and i enjoy doing her massage part of the fun he he i tickled her feet and got no response that was at about 3pm shame i hear you say but at 6 i got a surprise as the nurse was reinflating lins traci cuff i put my hand inside the stocking to tickle her foot and boy did i get a reaction both feet twiched and lin tried to move her foot to move away from my fingers and did it even the nurse saw it so from a very quite day being content to being with her i get this surprise wow that is something every day this week i know it might not seem much but after so long without movement i get this all week made my day in fact its made my week i cant ask anymore than that i could but would be greedy tommorow she gets the full treatment on her legs and feet she has some hard skin which i need to get off so im going to spend all my time pampering her just hope lin will let me do it wthout creating a noise but if she does so what he he i would be happy well thasts all for tonight im going to go to bed and dream of lin comming home and what i can do to make her content and happy one thing i will do is to try and get lin on here and have one hell of a knees up details to follow just before she comes home promise thank you all so much love from lin and myself night night god bless you all dont let the bed bugs bite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ElaineW Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 Hi Paul and Lin - I have been away for a week or so and just updated myself with the events I have miissed. Well what can I add - everyone else has said it all and what lovely news to come home too. I thought about you both often whilst I was away. Lots more steps forward rather than back - fantastic and the sun is shining too. When mum's trache came out she came on leaps and bounds and I am sure Lin will too.

Sasbo Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 Hi Paul and Lin Really pleased to hear your news from the last couple of days, and Friday in particular sounds like it was a very special day. Jess, it was lovely of you to visit and will have given Paul and Lin a real boost - you're a star. Paul you, too, are an inspiration with how you're coping - so upbeat and positive, well done. Lots of love to you both Sarah xx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul99 Posted October 12, 2008 Author Share Posted October 12, 2008 hi evryone today was not very good lin was out of it all day which knocked me back a bit lin didnt look very well she looked very tired and uncomfortable tried to talk to her and she did look at me with sorry eyes no sparkle but intently i suppose i shouldnt complain because she has done something every day this week which has cheered me up maybe im getting to selfish wanting her to keep it up and i most certainly dont want her in the hospitlal i want her home [but i know i cant ] i know when she looked at me i knew she wasnt happy for what ever reason i did tell her i know her wishs but she has made all the running and has been improving so much and there is a little way to go before we go walking over cannock chase the one place i know she loves being an ex towny as im am i have promised her wether she walks or goes in a chair we will be going back there as often as she wants i think she heard me and saw my tears all i want to do is cuddle her close and feel her in my arms yes im down but i hope lin is better tommorow maybe it was because she knows it the weekend and wanted to have the phyisos working on her i dont really know i know she always wants to go out saturday and sunday for walks holding hands thank you for all your best wishs i really appreicate them at times like this thank you i will close now and think of lin and go to bed night night an god bless from both of us xxxx hears hoping for a better day tommorow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sasbo Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 Hi Paul Sorry yesterday wasn't so good but Lin has been really busy this last week so I guess it's understandable. You are such a rock but it's natural that you'll get down too - just never forget you can come on here and pour everything out whenever you want to, we all can understand what you're both going through right now. Sending you both so much love and you're in my thoughts and prayers Sarah xxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul99 Posted October 13, 2008 Author Share Posted October 13, 2008 hi everyone yes yesterday wasnt nice at all but i suppose lin is entitled to a day of rest well i hope that is what it was went in today not knowing what would happen lin was crunched up and not very comfotable but i did manage to sit her up and care for her and as i cleaned her mouth she moved her left arm about four inchs and when i got her head into a position she could see i got the most wonderfull look from her eyes before she went off again but she did look at me quite a few times it cheered me up so see her move but i got reflective and went down a little so i gave her a pedicure which lasted about a hour but i felt better for doing it as she had a lot of hard skin on her feet lin always looked after herself and i thought why not keep it up lin wouldnt let me near her feet before as they were extremley ticklish we use to have a lot of fun then hopefully that will return the dr came round late on the the day and has asked for the outreach team to be available thursday which means they are going to downsize her traci on thursday another step forwards and as the dr says its still a very long rd ahead phyisos are still working on lin they think there is some tighting of her neck on the right side but they will work on it an try and loosen the neck fingers crossed they have also told me that when she goes to cannock they will really go to work on her and do all they can lin has very low muscle tone and that is the problem but they do have specialized staff to work on lin so they are poitive that something will happen when she gets to cannock but lin has shown me she is trying to help herself i just hope she can continue tonight i feel drained and tired and not as high as i have been in the past so i will close for now and try and get some sleep dreams keeping me awake some are so real so night night and god bless from lin and me xxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
