9 Feb 2011

Kate is feeling much better today after having slept for a full night at home.
 
She went to her niece's birthday party yesterday for a short while which was very brave and all the family were glad to see her.
 
Peter has taken mum's new look in his stride fully. As long as mum wears a sleeve so you can't see the bandage she is even allowed to fetch him from school! What a grown up boy he is becoming.
 
David is yet to adjust to the new look; he prefers to look at the missing arm from afar. He thinks that it is a little sad that the tumour was not benign (his words).
 
Thankfully the Independent Living Center assisted with the car modifications, so renewing the drivers license seems in hand. Very important to restore independence. Modifying the car and obtaining a new license shoudl hopefull not take much more than a few weeks.
 
Resting this afternoon as the morning was busy with friends visiting and there is still pain to be managed. But we are improving every day now.

  3. I think that's awsome that you went to a birthday party - typical of you not to miss out on chocolate cake and good coffee. Well done windgat :)
