Freer

Although she's not completely unbound, she is freer to walk about. She's stronger than she has been. Thomas bought a cane for her at the last minute, for while visiting friends who don't have a raised toilet seat, she found it impossible to lift herself without a cane. The walker, however useful, wasn't enough. Lois is still working on at-home PT.

Thomas and Lois got a chance to play cards with friends this weekend. For another time (nth time in a row) the ladies beat, no dare I write, slaughtered the boys. The scores weren't divulged to me, but I'm sure the four-digit score was well earned or liked by the ladies.

From the previous post, readers should be aware that a friend died after surgery, after a farily rourtine operation. It is the same operation that Lois endured. She was under a river of blood thinners (due to heart problems) prior to the surgery and got back on them within hours of post-op. She was ver fortunate to have a caring and paitent staff surrounding her, helping her.

Thomas will spend hours today and tomorrow at services. I'm sure that his family knows that Paul will be missed.
