Message Twenty Nine

Today for me was about Elizabeth's new 'tracchey' voice.  It will be much easier to speak when the tracchey is finally removed, but it's still there until a Speech Therapist says there is no risk of  her choking.   At the moment, Liz takes a large intake of breath and then speaks as she exhales.  It all comes out in one breath.  The rest of us listen intently.  Sometimes we go back to the old method, but there a sense that like the advent of a new technology, the past technology is obsolete and we are onto the new.

Liz continues to be in good spirits. She still has neurological pain in her left leg. This morning, her nurse Catrina, took her for a spin in the wheelchair out of the main entrance and about 3/4 of a kilometer (1/2 mile) round the periphery of the hospital. The morning was beautiful with a clear blue sky. We saw Liz with a green leaf in her hand - evidence that she has been out.

In the evening Louise, Naomi and Rebekah visited.

Tomorrow Liz might move to the Brain Injury Unit (a rehab centre within the General Hospital) with its new visiting times of 12-2 and 4-8.Here is a break down of views on how 

Liz is doing from around the world.
