Neil was allowed a 'lie in' this morning - he was woken at 7.30 am instead of 6.30 am!! (That's private hospitals for you). I turned up to see him at 11 ish and met Yvonne, a friend who works there, just calling in to see Neil. Later he went for a 'hop' along the corridor and dashed backwards and forwards at great speed looking into each room and saying hello to everyone. I was walking behind him ready to catch him if he fell! He was quite tired when he got back to his room. Tina called in at lunchtime, as she only works down the road. Simon dropped in after lunch and sat and chatted with Neil whilst I nipped into Tescos down the road to buy a few bits. My sister Diane arrived just as Simon was leaving and in the afternoon helped me get Neil into the bathroom so I could cut his hair. He then had a lovely shower (the second one in 5 weeks). It was a lot easier than the first one he had and he felt great afterwards. I gave his feet a massage with some cream and then replaced his sexy stockings. Neil's physio, Jackie, came in and went through some exercises with Neil and checked his mobility. She was going to see him again tomorrow once the consultant had seen him to begin . Neil's cousin Norman came by to say hello and stayed for a while chatting about football (yet another footie fan). His Mum and Dad arrived in the early evening with Tina and Brian and his Mum stayed with Neil whilst the others went to watch football. The consultant dropped in very briefly to say hello and said he would return tomorrow to discuss things further.
