      I am so sorry to read that! Very worrying and stressful for you both!
      Glad to read that after such a scary time of it, she is pulling through at a rate of knots - she's made of strong stuff, for sure. Healing vibes being sent her way :grphg:

      Ah, that is because you have *stopped* ... always catches up with you when you stop :grphg: Some speedy healing vibes for you too - it's always harder work than we expect when we have to care for an ill relative. Enjoy that lay in bed with breakfast and a cuppa, sounds like you deserve it :thumbsup:

            @Upsydaisy carers need to be cared for too. Gald your sister is on the mend.

            I have left my two sons, Jack 21 & Ben 25, in charge of the house and garden...thank goodness for all that rain we have just had:snorky: the garden won't be too frazzled when we come back!!

                    A very typical day for me...a bit of work on one of the cars this morning, damaging my arm in the process. Not a happy bunny now....:sad:

                        Sounds fab @Loopylupin , keep safe and have fun.
                        Thanks also for your kind words.:)

                        @wiseowl .....what a lovely day you've had !!

                        @Sandy Ground.....hope you're OK , rest that arm of yours.

                        Left early this morning and travelled back up to stay another week near my poorly sister. But as she had afternoon visitors hubs and I visited Ham House and Gardens ( NT) this afternoon , it was lovely.
                        Saw sis tonight, still attached to a lot tubes but is making progress. Hubs will go back home tomorrow and I will stay the week.

                                Thanks for that @wiseowl my friend. As an update, I'm looking at a period of physiotherapy, followed by surgery if that does not succeed.
