Message Thirty Seven

"I'm ok.  Thank you for reading the blog and for the cards and letters.  They are so encouraging.  And having visits is really fun."  
(Message from Elizabeth.)

When we arrived Elizabeth told us, "today is Christmas."  S, the senior physio, had removed her tracheostomy and thrown it away.  The cartilage in her trachea will close up now, and the skin on her neck will heal over.  S also  said that  she will be moving to rehab in a few days.  This cued-up a certain Amy Winehouse song about going to rehab.

And it was Christmas as we received a large parcel from Margaret's sister in America. Mary had designed T shirts for us all with Elizabeth's favorite colours and a wonderful message.

Cousin Sarah has been able to take advantage of a few free days from lectures to visit us all.

James and Claire (pastors) brought a large signed card from the church.  Tim, Audrey and Karen Dixon (of Dixon Farm and summer camps fame) visited.  Vendela, and Yewade, special 'Margaret and Andrew' friends visited.

It was another great day with Liz's left leg getting visibly stronger.
