Lesley wrote this for me to bring home and send to you:
Hello, Post-Structurals! I’m awake!!
I don’t know how to thank you for all your support for both of us. It has been an awful time for Ro and I know how much all your replies and support have meant to him. And they have given me something to hang onto, listen to and laugh at during those days when there seemed to be very little! I am speechless . . . but it hasn’t stopped me writing! I cannot thank you enough.
A deeply grateful devondancer.
Lesley will write more when she is stronger, but is pretty exhausted today. No physio yet, but she is still using her hands. Her pain remains quite well-controlled but she is still very weak. The docs have not yet released her from ICU although if she keeps whistling I’m sure they soon will! (She is luckily in a side ward!) She keeps fighting, but has little reserve at the moment. I think she wants - literally - to run before she can walk!
We continue to take one day at a time and be grateful for that day. Lesley is very aware of what is going on and insists on being consulted about everything. Her decision about further surgery stands.
As always, my sincere thanks to you all.
Ro (mr devondancer)
… now would be the opportune time to take a few playful pokes at you… hmmm… (sound of mental gears squeaking in the background - nearly as tuneful as my whistling) …
