Sat 25 Feb 2017 First night at home for a long time.

A wonderful sunny day and a good time to have Elise's first weekend leave from the hospital. One night back in her bed, albeit with an expensive rented computerized mattress, is a welcome change.

I pushed the wheelchair for Elise, with both Shannon and Poppy accompanying. Elise keenly reacquainted herself with Hughesdale on a perfect sunny day.

Her shoulders are extremely sore because of all the extra work they have been doing so Shannon gave a good massage. This hurt her considerably but provided huge relief. We have decided to give serious massaging on a regular basis from now on. Any masseur would be welcome :-)

  1. It was great to see you on Sunday evening Elise.... good to chat and understand more about what you've been going through. Also well done on your admirable debut to Chicken Foot Dominoes :) Anouk has saved the score pad so we can continue the round at our next visit! Well done on the progress you're making through a lot of hard work and our love and prayers continue to flow for you. We'll come and see you again soon and I'd be honored to give you a massage if that's something you'd benefit from. Love Tash & co xoxo

  2. So glad you've been able to have some time at home Elise. I'm sure being in your own environment was more pleasant than hospital which can be so noisy. Kim xo
