17th October 2011

Hiya,

Steven says he is enjoying the freedom of living at the rented house. He has total privacy in his own room where he can play his music to his heart's content. He noticed the difference immediately, no-one walking into his room un-announced, no doors slamming, no people shouting, no routine. He goes to town with us to choose his food, and Pauline provides hot food. His physio' is now only one 3 hour block every morning, and not split into 4 separate blocks throughout the day, much more manageable. This gives Pauline and I time to ourselves, and we all then have time to do our thing every afternoon and evening. Being an out-patient allows Steven to go out into the wider world, including bingo at Alzira where he shouted for a "full house" and won 112 euro. He has also been given permission to be unsupervised when walking to and from the physio' dept', and within it's confines. We'll be there though, it's just nice to know the staff have confidence in Steven's progress. Steven is doing so well, and at the risk of repeating myself, is that the only thing holding him back now is the operation on his hip, of which we still haven't had any news.
Best regards Terry
