Well, we have now reached eight weeks of enforced togetherness! It is really getting a bit much, but we are still speaking to each other. Elder Son is also continuing to do as much as he can to help.

So, what can I write in this update? Lovely Husband has now been given the results of his MRI scan last week. His long-term issues with his back were noted and he has been referred to a specialist. No additional serious matters have been found, which is great. Of course, we have no idea how long it will take to see the consultant.

A GP visited today, gave us further information and checked some other issues that were concerning LH. These were clearly explained and I hope LH’s mind was set at rest. He now has to continue with the exercises set by the physio and hope that he is soon able to get downstairs again.

There will be loud cheers heard from this house when that day happens!

Other news: I am getting stronger slowly and am now able to do much more “housework” than I could at the beginning of all this. So, that is one positive thing that has come out of the situation. We have decided that ES will go on his holiday next week as I feel confident that I can manage without him for a few days. He has helped me with quite a few tasks this week, including a mountain of washing, so that the decks have been cleared. We now have to stock up on ready meals as I still can’t do any proper cooking with my lung problems.

OK, I think I have covered everything, and now we have something different…

I had a poster of the above image on my bedroom wall when I was a student in the 1970s!

Have a great weekend.

Love and best wishes,

Anne
