Karin, Lottie, Dan and Peggy have made it to the seaside for a well deserved break.
Linda and Isaac visited last night, then I watched an episode of the young ones which included 'bambi' hosting University Challenge, and Motorhead preforming 'Ace of Spades'.
One of Isaacs many questions was do i get bored? well I don't seem to have time to get bored at the moment. So being as I have to keep a record of my food and fluid intake and as that is the main thing I'm doing at the moment here goes:
0600 resting heart rate, blood pressure etc taken
0750 blood test no1
0800 glucose via NG tube
0900 swallowing exercises
1000 blood test no2
1015 lemon squash 200ml
1035 late breakfast due to fasting blood sugar test porridge 22 tsp
1050 shower
1110 lemon squash 100ml
