Day 45 – Saturday 27 December
As suspected, a lazy day. The “hamster” was very tired last night so he slept in until about 1030 this morning and has spent most of the day catching up on some of the things recorded on Sky+ and some of the DVDs he got for Christmas. We are watching Russell Howard as I write! Oh, and he had quite a lot to eat.........!!
Al has got it absolutely right - in some ways 12 November seems like only yesterday (probably because of the vivid memories) but in other ways it seems like a lifetime ago. The progress that Paul has made has been truly outstanding and we are absolutely convinced that this has been helped enormously by the way you have all supported him – we are truly lucky to have such good friends and to live in such a friendly community. Had we still been “darn sarf”, even though we had some very close friends, I don’t think we would have had anything like the support we have had here. So many thanks once again!
Unfortunately Paul has to go back to Maidencraig tomorrow which none of us are looking forward to, but all being well he will be home again Wednesday for New Year. Despite the tremendous progress, there are still many things that Paul struggles to do and at times we get a stark reminder of the extent of his injury, but as 2008 draws to a close we are looking forward to his continued progress into 2009...
