Not capable of concentrating on The Economist? I wouldn't bother too much about that as a yardstick. I have difficulty doing so in what I laughingly describe as good health. In any case its contents at the moment are hardly likely to be happiness-inducing. Have you tried reading to him? A very very clever friend of mine found he had nothing to say when visiting his wife during her first confinement. So he read Wind in the Willows aloud. Should you choose Gros Calin by Romain Gary you'll have the rest of the ward tuning in. Sorry about the long drag.

So hard watching a loved one feel lousy. Much love to both of you. Sharing your experience is not nothing, you know. It's putting something positive and sharing out there in the world, and holding on to company, when worry is inevitably something you feel alone with. xxx

Slow is not bad, as long as the direction is good. The Economist will keep, even if the QS doesn't.

What hateful places hospitals and yet how glad we are of them. It sounds as though Tom is well looked after, and it was good to read of his voice sounding stronger.

I can nearly always find something interesting or something to admire in a double exposure, but this is a particularly fine example.

Do hope the progress picks up again - and quickly.

I hope Tom continues to make progress, recovery can always be frustrating.

I like Christopher's poem.
I hope something has moved, to help Tom to recovery faster.

Things will happen, Lucy (I'm telling that to myself too!). Let's just wait and blog about it whenever we can. Here's wishing the best for you two. Hugs!

Making Things Right

So I have gone in,
Deep into the hut to sit
In the center spot
Where the power is,
Where we sit to move the world.

I have risen up
Toward the sky hole
To meet the angel. She comes
To take the message.

I plead all be right again.
She nods, a kiss. She ascends.

weekend was a bit tough, as the staff at the hospital were somewhat thin on the ground and non-committal.

Yeah, no kidding.

Healing can't be rushed, as frustrating as that is.

Blast that slow recovery! But it sounds like he may have turned a corner. Hope so!

Time does go ever so slowly when we are twiddling our thumbs . . . and waiting for news/progress/a sign. I'm wishing you both well.

I do think that the rays of sunlight, and the luminous clouds, feel comfortingly symbolic. Just like the bare branches, this is a winter for you, but spring will come again!

Good news. Cautiously onwards.
