Paul update - Day 46


Day 46 - Sunday 28 December

That probably has to be the shortest 4 days I can remember - it only seems like yesterday that we were picking Paul up from Maidencraig to bring him home for Christmas and yet already we have taken him back. All being well though, he should be back on Wednesday for New Year.

We didn't do a great deal today; Paul got up fairly late and after having something to eat he had a few visitors - Holly, Eilidh, Gavin and Stuart - which took his mind off the fact that he had to go back!

The last 4 days have been brilliant - Paul said himself that he doesn't feel any different to how he felt before his accident which in a way I suppose is good for him, but sometimes makes it quite difficult for us because he doesn't really realise what has happened to him and the limitations he currently has, he just thinks he can do whatever he did before.

He is still improving every day though, so with the physio and occupational therapy planned over the next few weeks his abilities should improve and he should be able to do more and more. Fingers crossed......

I can't wait to see you all and see how much better Paul is. The last time I saw him he had just regained consciousness...

I'm hoping to come by Maidencraig on Tuesday but I will have been travelling for about 12 hours by the time I get there so can't promise how jolly and chatty I'll be!

See you all soon. Glad to see you had a (relatively) good christmas.
