Chorister
So today was scan number 9 and both legs are looking good and the left leg has really turned a corner since the last scan on 17th November.
So is the left leg good healing due to the pulsed mag or just how it heals? Liz's recall is that the right leg suddenly did this too.
Can now start hand walking on the hard for five minutes twice daily, if ligaments do not react after one week increase to ten minutes twice daily.
Best Christmas present ever :-D
Shoes can go back on with some sort of support (heart bars / pads) to get weight off walls
Had eyes and heart checked all OK, other than gut so loud Liz had to wait to hear heart :-)
Fred
Fred is 24 and old enough to know better and behave :-) but no he has to prat and spin and generally be a PITA. So good to see him feeling so jolly. Liz did say clearly he is happy and enjoying life.
Heart ok, cataract left eye almost certainly due to his age but is translucent so isn't a concern at this stage. Liz did say he wasn't a candidate for surgery I think she was making fun of me :-) as she knows and I am sure loves my tendency to over think.
