news from norreys avenue

My wife, Barbara, was taken into hospital at the beginning of September. She was splendidly looked after by the NHS including several weeks at the stroke recovery unit in Abingdon. She came home in January and is now visited four times a day by carers who move her from her bed to a wheelchair, prepare her meals, and put her back to bed at the end of the day. Thanks to our three daughters who rearranged the house, Barbara can move from her ground floor bedroom into our music room where she is able to play the piano and keep in touch with friends by phone. We cannot realistically look for any improvement in her condition.
