Dear Friends,
The update on Brian is that he is in a single room on the Stroke Unit, which is very useful for Gilly, who changes his leg dressings, and is also able to pray for him there. Brian is progressing well.
An occupational therapist has been getting him to use his right arm and hand, and progress has been made. A physiotherapist has had him standing and getting himself back into bed.
He is much more lucid in his speech during the day, but this tails off when he gets tired. A speech therapist will see him today. He has been sleeping fairly well.
Items for prayer:
1 For full restoration of his speech and full use of his right arm and hand.
2 For full healing of his hip.
3 That the different therapists and medics will compare notes - and not ask the same questions every time!
4 That they will understand the various conditions, not just their own discipline - e.g. 'What's that dressing on his hip?' - 'He's just had a hip replacement!!' (He is in a Stroke ward, after all!)
Thank you very much.
Blessings and love from Brian and Gilly.
