Today, with the warmth and blue skies, we were able to walk round the whole hospital with an old (young) school friend Susanna, who had come from her uni in Falmouth. Liz has been able to demonstrate her latest gymnastic feat. With her feet pinned down, she can do a sit-up. Anny drove from Sheffield telling us that it was the first time she had used a motorway.
We are getting used to the new regime in NRU (Ward 2). The key is to be persistent and patient at the same time. The nurses have more patients to see to, and often the buzzer (both at the main door and bedside), can take a while to be answered.
In the evening we sang hymns and songs together. Elizabeth said she had already sung one of the songs Joanna had chosen. She described the church service she held by herself this morning, complete with songs, prayers and sermon. (Actually I'm not sure if it extended to a sermon!)

Wow! She’s doing better than me with the sit ups!
ReplyDeleteElizabeth, you sound a very remarkable person! I know we've never met, oh probably did at your grandad Michael's funeral, but I've heard a lot of you from gran Margaret, who with Michael &the Holy Spirit led me to Christ in 1966.
ReplyDeleteI'm praying for you daily, as is my church group.
You've done incredibly well & may the Lord sustain you in His Grace, Strength & Perseverence as you continue on this recovery journey. Love Ruth
