Jeanette is not well

Jeanette's has not been well this week. She has been listless and disorientated and all she wants to do is sleep the day and night away. We all encourage her to try to be more active and move around, but without much success. If she is still like this next week Peter may suggest that she should be taken to see her doctor.

Recovering slowly

Jeanette’s wheel chair has been very useful since Peter came out of hospital as he cannot walk unassisted. He tries to walk on his own when we aren't around, but 9 times out of 10, he lands up collapsed on the floor … he is so frustrated with this slow recovery process, he never expected that it was going to take this long! Ronnie decided to take a few days off work to remain with him at home and help him where possible. Peter had to see Dr Vosloo again yesterday for a follow-up consultation. He has had more X-rays taken and more blood tests. She has altered his medication slightly but she has assured us that his recovery process is normal for his age.
