Week 99 (8 - 14 June 2008)

Andrea remained in hospital until Thursday afternoon. There has been little further progress but she has an out patients appointment with the Urology Professor on 24th June. The pain management has been up and down as different things were tried, mainly on purpose! It is frustrating having time but not the concentration nor wherewithal to actually do much.

Ken Mizon visited on Wednesday. He and his wife, Anne, were managers of Matoke Inn in Kampala when we stayed there in August 2006. We last saw him at the AIM Central Region Conference in Kampala in January. It was good to catch up and we appreciated his visit.

I returned the borrowed wheelchair to the Red Cross – they have to be returned for servicing every three months. It was exchanged for another, to be returned by September. We hope to return it long before then of course!

Andreas bicycle has been stored in her Mum’s garage but I couldn’t find the pump for the tyres. After borrowing one and raising the seat I managed to ride it without falling off. But my knees hurt after less than five minutes. I aim to go out for a short ride each day for the exercise. There are a couple of parks nearby so I can ride off-road as we used to.
