Paul update - Day 38





Day 38 – Saturday 20 December

Just a brief update today as Paul is home and we are settling down to watch “The Dark Knight”! I thought he would want to watch the final of Strictly Come Dancing but he wants to watch the 6 previous episodes we recorded on Sky+ for him before he sees the final. Hmm, this could take some time.......

We picked Paul up around 10:30 this morning and he was keen and ready to leave. On the way home we stopped at the garage because Kenny and Anne wanted to see him and they were visibly relieved to see how well he was. We also bumped into Louis (Ryan’s brother) in the garage so Paul had a brief chat with him as well.

Paul was pleased to get home and seeing him lounging on the settee again was quite spooky – it was almost as if everything was normal but sadly there are a few months to go before we get to that stage.

He had a bit of a nap and then Eilidh, Gavin, Stuart, Holly and Gavin’s Mum Jan popped round to see him and they watched television and chatted all afternoon which was great.

We are not planning to do too much tomorrow, we will probably put up the Xmas decs and have a lazy day – we have to get Paul back by about 20:00 and don’t want him to be too tired.

Finally, for those that have visited Paul in Maidencraig and have met Kevin – the lad in the bed opposite – there is an article about him in today’s Piper.

I hope to post tomorrow, but can’t guarantee – it just depends how we do for time!

Having been publically chastised for not posting any pictures of Stuart, I hope the attached make up for it!

My vanity precedes me :D

Seeing him today was fantastic. Hopefully this can become a regular occurance (sp) after the New Year.
