Crawling towards the weekend

June 11th, 2009 No comments

A very un-productive day. I was up at 9:00am, and had breakfast. Mum was going out today, haircut first and then shopping with Yvonne in Banbury. Dad was going to the field to put the roof on the tractor garage with Terry. The tin man had dropped off the roofing materials on Tuesday, so everything is all ready to go.

All I have done is eat my lunch, which was in a cool bag on the table for me. I skyped Ma Yan, and as she was doing some exercises, I thought I would do some as well. Just moving my leg around and generally moving about. She then went for a run around the complex.

S-Day

June 3rd, 2009 No comments

Well, after a fairly good nights sleep, I was awake at 6:30am.  After doing some exercises, I got up at 7 and zimmered to the bathroom.  Still nice to not p**s in a bottle.  I had a shave, (last one here), and then went to the chair.  I caught them out today, as they brought breakfast at 7:40am, so I managed to have breakfast out of bed.  After eating my toast and jam, I read some more of “Sigh for a Merlin”.  Dad will like some of the chapter names.  One of which is – “A Tomtit in the garden”.

Was woken early this morning by my leg being a bit sore.  I cannot seem to find a position that is comfortable for the whole night. 

Ma Yan left for work at 6:45, she has stayed here over the weekend.  Making sure I do my exercises, and generally helping me out.

Engage the Zimmertron

May 31st, 2009 No comments

Up this morning again, and another zimmer trip to the toilet.  Then back to my chair for breakfast.  I was in the chair for 40 minutes this morning, and before I got into bed again, I did a few exercises on my leg.

Nothing fancy, just simulating lifting my leg to go up stairs.  Hard work, but it seemed to work ok.  While I was in the chair, my leg was hurting a bit on the outside,  so I rubbed it a bit, and it seemed to ease a bit.  It might have been that pain yesterday.  I shall see later when I zimmer about again.

No GP visit so far today.  The assistant surgeon changed my dressings yesterday, and said he would change them today.
