Hello everyone
I phoned the hospital this morning and theres been not much change from yesterday and Gordon is very tired.
I asked if anyone thought i was being thoughtless if i didnt get to the hospital till around 5.00 ish so as to give him time to rest and was told that if everybody did that patients would get better much quicker so that made me feel a lot better.
The nurse said she would let him know and phone me back to tell me to come earlier if he wanted me too.
Tim one of my great friends took me to the shop this morning and had to learn how to look after thew shop while i was oing the orders.
It was so funny as he had never used a till before and i am not the worlds best at it either talk about the blind leading the blind and we ended up charging one lady £37,000000 for two items.
We all laughrd so much it did me good.
Arrived at the hospital and Gordon was asleep but woke up not long after we arrived.
He has had the results from the MRI and told me they had found nothing obvious but were going to have another look at the scans and come and see us tomorrow.
Although he is still in lots of pain with his head he did manage a few spoonfuls of pineapple and half a tub of ice cream so thats a good sign.
I havnt really cried much but i did a little today as i was looking at him i just felt so helpless as i cant take his pain away i would give anything to see his smiling face just for a few seconds.
The nurses are wonderful with him and everyone else in the ward and i just want to say to Ikbhal and his wife in the next bed from Gordon all the best as they are moving to another hospital tonight and have become great friends.
We left Gordon sleeping and came home and Claire who is Tims girlfriend Matt and Lizzie who live down the road came round and they really cheered me up and i realise now just how wonderful it is to have friends.
We dont live in each others pockets and may not see each other for weeks but one of us is in trouble of any kind we help each other.
Thanks You Guys i LOVE YA.
I told them i had to write my blog and they are all sitting in the living room watching tv and chatting until i return (no Problem they said ).
Hope i have better news for you tomorrow.
Thank you all so much for being our friends on here too as its like having an extended family looking after us as well and i will keep photo copying all your messages to take to gordon ( i cant wait to see his face when he is able to read them.
I will sign off now for tonight.
Love and smiles Rob xxxxxxxx
Crafty people are very kind and caring even if we have never met one another. We can only offer words, but sometimes they can be the best words ever spoken for one who needs it. If only other people could have thought for others, the world would be a better place. Whoops..my halo has just slipped !!
ReplyDeleteBig hugs to you both xx

Hi Rob, of course you feel helpless, that's only natural, but don't underestimate how much you are doing just by being there for Gordon. That emotional support is worth a lot, and it's something you can do for him better than anyone. Take care of yourself too! Good news on the scan results.
