Progress

Ron has made lots of progress this week.  On Tuesday the physio and OT came and enouraged Ron to walk from the chair lift to the bed and back again.  Since then he has not used the wheelchair to and from the bedroom.  In addition on Wednesday he walked to the bathroom and back to the chair lift,  this is really difficult for him and he has to overcome his fear of the stairs, it takes him ages to get through the doorway but he refuses to give in.  He really is so brave.   He has done this every day.   The physio will be amazed.

We went to Lorraine's last week and Ron managed the transfer from car to living room.  He did really well.   It has given us confidence to visit others.

The scooter has arrived and we used it for the first time yesterday when we went to visit Andrea.  We need more practice especially me but I think it will be fine in the end.

We have been busy in the garden 19 troughs have been planted up with african marigolds these line the wall that borders the drive up to the garage.  Three baskets planted up with million bells and begonias (saved from last year)
