"I have news" said Elizabeth when we arrived this evening. At 4:15pm Liz was told that she has a place at Barclay House. Mercifully R, Elizabeth's physio was right next to her as the news was quite overwhelming. It's been a long journey and now the end of her time in Hospital has come. Her last day will be this Wednesday. (Apparently there are four people waiting for her bed.) We were all affected. Liz has so many people she has become attached to and now she is going to have to say all those painful good byes. The departure time will be 3:00pm, and that is when she will walk, holding on to R, to the front door and leave. Joanna will help Liz take down the strings of cards from all of you. Also the many pictures pinned to the walls.
Everything in this life has a beginning, middle and end. Each one has it's story. We are so thankful for the wonderful care Elizabeth has received every single day of her time in Hospital. Liz is close to independent walking, but what could be better that having two physios, both who have become like friends, walking either side of you as you leave.
