This brings tears to my eyes - you are (both) so very lucky!

Relationships = Life.

That's all there is, really. You are certain to flourish under such care, Prue - and, keep laughing - a lot! xo

Sue, I'm grumpy today - wondering if I'm finally being discharged. Pic of snarling Jack Russell on Facebook! ;)

It's pretty good having a nice guy, Alice - particularly when one reads of those who are not.

Constancy, and to coin a beautiful phrase: 'strength and stay'.

I'm home now - discharged at lunchtime, a little way to go but ever onward! XXXX

Hi, Prue.

I'm writing this from beautiful Nova Scotia on the eastern coast of Canada. We are visiting our daughter, son-in-law and our newest granddaughter Abigel Aisling, who is now 9 months old. I just want to let you know that I love this post about your husband and your beautiful photos. I look forward to your posts and hope for lots more Here's to your husband who gives you such wonderful first class care and to continued progress in getting better.

Healing hugs,

Hallo, Judith. How lovely to hear from you.

I was discharged today from hospital and so my poor husband is once again head nurse and general but loved factotum. Thank you for your wishes - onwards!

I think of the many instances I'd say, I hope we don't find illness at the same time and mystified how that usually works that way. Your sweetheart has a happy smile, you compliment each other beautifully. I read your deep love and commitment, I feel your gratitude. Keep up the healing, more exciting memories for you two coming!

It's odd, isn't it, that one is always available to care for the other. I think the Fates, Norns, whatever have a little hand in that.

Home now, CJ and hoping the most recent blip on the radar was it - onwards in health!
