A Little Stronger Every Day



Hello everyone
The picture above is of Gordon and Harry today on our first walk since he has been back at home.
As you can see he is looking really well and is slowly getting stronger.
Harry has got a mouth full of pine-cones which he loves collecting for some reason.
We walked about a mile today and then came home had dinner and relaxed.
We have slowly weaned out Gordons pain killers and he has only had one since Friday which is fantastic.
He is just taking things easy still and is being a really good patient.
I bring him all the post home every day from work and he goes through all that and then tells me what to do about it for the following day so that way he still feels part of the shop even though he isnt there.
I have just about caught up with the ironing and have become best friends with my slow cooker ( could not have done without it )
The most important tablets Gordon has been on will stop on Wednesday and that means no more waking up at 2.00 am and 6.00 am so we are both really looking forward to that as you can imagine.
Harry is entertainments manager and is always doing something to make us laugh and he is being so good around Gordon and sits with him for hours with his little head resting on his lap.
So all is looking good and in three weeks time you and i will be just as likely as Gordon to get an aneurysm and he will be completely out of danger.
I still have moments when i look back and think what might have happened, but am now concentrating on the future and our civil ceromony later on in the year ( i have coaxed Gordon into us both wearing traditional Scottish dress for the big day and he said thats fine as long as i dont wear fishnet stockings under my kilt haha ).
Harry will be wearing a tartan bow tie for the occasion and will be our little page boy.
So that is how our week has gone and i will write again soon and keep you all informed on Gordons progress.
Thank you all so much for your support, love, cards and kind words.
We love each and every one of you and you have kept us going .
Rob Gordon and Harry xxxxxx

    It'll be good to see you back in the shop although Robert, you have been doing a great job.
