Things seem to continuing apace

Jo has had her new wet room for over a week now and it seems to be having an efficacious effect on her rehabilitation as well as affording her great delight and relief at being able to bathe properly again.

The stimulating effect of the shower on her left side is very therapeutic and actually causes her index finger on her let hand to straighten out each morning.

Different strokes...

It has been nearly seven years since Jo suffered a "controlled" stroke whilst undergoing brain surgery to clip the blood vessel that had caused a subarachnoid haemorrhage in 2000. Sadly two successive coilings did not occlude the bleed and so Jo had a craniotomy in August 2008. During surgery the surgeon discovered the coiling had penetrated the rear of the aneurysm, occasioning emergency repair procedures. Consequentially they spent one and a half hours longer in surgery than expected, leading to the right half of Jo's brain forgetting it has to look after the left side of her world.
