Kitty and I caught the train up today to have lunch with Simon and had nice time. Unfortunately there won't be any cast until early next week. Again we have to learn not to take very much of what we are told by too literally, which is difficult. He has used the walking frame a couple of times today, just going from the bed to the chair, which he found a bit tricky but enjoyed having something to challenge him.
His left hand seems a bit worse today with the carpel tunnel, but his right hand seems almost normal.
I don't think there is much else to report. I find it hard only having about one hour a day with him, and spending most of every day away from the kids. I know it will pass and hopefully by the end of next week he will be home with us where we will face new struggles, but at least we will all be together again.
p.s He just called to say he just used the frame again and didn't find it too hard compared to yesterday! Yesterday he felt like he was 150 years old, tonight only 80. He said it's still difficult and painful but really encouraging to see how much it's improved since yesterday.
