Things have been busy
Sorry I haven't updated you in a few days, things got busy here. Sadly the 24/7 care I had planned for Nick had to be given by me, someone who needs large amounts of care themselves, because both my carers became too ill to work and we kind of forgot about the existence of other people. Luckily with the help of my parents and a visitor or two, we have arrived out the other side as intact as we were before, but with a lot of mess for my carers to fix when they were able to work!
Nick continues to progress well, having taken 3 steps today unaided which is pretty incredible given his injuries. In fact, we discovered by reading his discharge summary fully that in addition to the complex fractures of his pelvis, he also has a fractured sacrum which was not mentioned to either of us, as far as we can remember, anyway.
Delayed thanks to everyone who sent cards to the hospital, we received quite a few on the day he left so sending thank-yous got a little overshadowed by all the other admin etc, but they are all up in my living room and were thoroughly appreciated by both of us.
Best wishes to you all,
Janet and Nick
