Hurry Up Mum!

This is Basil waiting for me to come and get in the car. We were meant to be driving to Coalville for me to visit the physiotherapist. I was pleased to get an appointment earlier than Monday when I was supposed to go.

It was a very satisfactory meeting. I was pleased to find out that my muscles are in pretty good shape, EXCEPT, for the hip muscles. Why, asked the physio therapist, had I stopped doing my hip exercises. After walking quite happily between the parallel bars, she suggested going back to using two crutches to restore my confidence and doing the hip exercises that she recommended. Little and often. I shall return mid-August for us to evaluate progress.

And I must start walking round the close with my crutches every day.

Choir rehearsal in the evening. I felt isolated at the end of the row as both my compatriots were away.
