I did not see Colin today – I miss him terribly, but I needed a break. I spent the whole day in my pyjamas and did some cleaning of the house. I do have a copy of Colin’s X-ray or scan or whatever you call it. Here is a normal one I found on the … [Read more…]

So many mixed emotions today. I had a phone call from a lady asking me if we had insurance on the car, as her client was going to try claim from us because Colin made an unsafe lane change and clipped his car. After taking a deep breath, I asked her if she represented the … [Read more…]

Another long day for Colin as he was transferred from the hospital via ambulance to the Rehab Center, and for me with more admin and forms and calls, etc. He seems in fine spirits today, and I stayed from around 3 until just before 8pm. He wants a shave tomorrow, and will want his hair … [Read more…]

I just got back from seeing Colin again. He was AGAIN, exponentially better than this afternoon which was exponentially better than yesterday. His boss sent the link for 2 unreleased apps that use eye movement as the mouse on a smart device, and blinking as clinking and double clicking. We installed them together tonight on … [Read more…]

Today Debbie and Carol were to visit Colin and he was very animated. He is feeling so much better, and even showed off how hard he has been working on his left and right arms. His left arm has almost double the movement he has before, and his right is gaining a little strength now … [Read more…]

They did replace his trachy today at 3pm. I was a little late due to traffic, and arrived just as he came round. Suddenly, I have more hope – his colour is just so much better, and despite being a little dopey still, he was in good spirits. He sill needs to learn how to … [Read more…]

I went at the 3 o’clock visiting hour, and Colin had not yet gone for his trachy replacement. I could see that he was a little down, perhaps nervous about the replacement, but he was ok in general. He ate a yoghurt, but wanted something savoury. He says they are still not really letting him … [Read more…]

Haven’t seen him yest, but just wanted to say today I am grateful for Morgan, and Breakfast. This morning, at 7am, Morgan brought me a wonderful breakfast of scrambled eggs, mushrooms, bacon, and has browns. Thank you Morgan – I really appreciated that. It was very delicious, and just what I needed. Thank you my … [Read more…]

Some good news – I fed him a small pot of yoghurt, and he loved that. He also drank almost a whole juice, and seems to be fine with the food and drink, although they are still introducing it too slowly for his liking. Tomorrow will be 7 days since they installed his trachy and … [Read more…]
