Happy tears

139 Replies

Today when he saw me, hubby smacked his lips for a kiss and winked at me.The physio was there getting him to lift his arms and legs and wiggling his fingers and toes. She called him a flirt, but was thrilled with him..

He was mouthing I love you to me.

They wheeled a tv in, picture was awful, they all had purple faces, but he watched Bargain hunt and Impossible. I asked did he want me to turn it off and he shook his head no.

He's not lost his sense of humour had the physio giggling. She asked him, can I ask Sue questions about you, she'll tell me won't she? He shook his head no, pulled a face and then grinned! I mean just rude eh?😜😂

So pleased he's come back to me, we can work on the physio.

Although he's hooked up to the ventilator, but he's breathing completely on his own, the machine is just there in case he misses any.

Thank you all for your support and prayers 💗

Hello :-)

This was lovely to read and you never told us what a flirt he is :-D

If he is back to doing that I think he is well on his way to recovery I like how he has picked flirting as his first move as well as his sense of humour he sounds like he is back :-)

I think we feel as well as knowing you that we know your Husband to and I hope in the future when you are at home together he will come on and say hello to us would be lovely to meet him even if virtually :-)

No thanks is needed your Husband making such good progress is what most of us wanted to hear :-)

I hope you will still update us as you will still be in so many of our thoughts and now the updates are so positive I would love to keep reading about his progress :-)

Don't forget to look after yourself and rest to he will be home before you know it and so you need to look after yourself to :-)

You won't get rid of us now, had so much support here, it's got me through without going too crazy x

Hello :-)

That is good to hear and you only went slightly crazy the once when you had the sandwiches and soup but seemed to snap out of it very quickly which was a relief so I think you have done very well :-) x

You relax a bit now, and get some rest ready for when he comes home. Lots of love to you both x
