My imagination wants to see this picture as Caesar, with three
lictors about her. Elizabeth said that's ridiculous because she is not Caesar, and her physio's are not lictors. That's the state of our conversations these days.
Elizabeth has been doing a lot of supported walking, and her left big toe is beginning to move. This is the last area of no movement, so it's lovely to see a wiggling toe. Today she was sad to see L, her OT, move on to pastures new. Liz suggested that L should get a guard of honour by the door, the tradition offered to patients when they leave. L will be greatly missed by Liz.
Liz has appreciated her visitors. Taiyebah, came. She is looking into a job at the hospital. Liz's great uncle and aunt, Lis and James, and Sandra were in town for our friend Lala's inaugural lecture as an Arts Professor at DeMontfort University, and visited her too. Things continue to progress well, with another 6 or 7 weeks to go, and clear signs that every minute on Ward 2 means progress.
I will be happy when you don't have to wear the strap for holding your arm. That will be a great sign of returning strength.
