Barrie
was quite alert and with it on both viisits
He is breathing quite well without the ventilator and receives oxygen through his nose.
His throat is very sore and everytime he tries to cough, he grimaces with pain
It will take a few day to ease and for his vocal cords to work again
He is now able whisper to me which makes communication a bit easier
Tonight he told me very seriously that since he has been in hospital, he has been kidnapped five times, this is morphine for you
and a few minutes later, after I had removed my protective outfit, ready to leave, he called me back and asked me how many kilos I had lost
I lied and said two
So he is certainly very much on the case
Doctors are pleased with his progress and he needs to progress even more in order to sort out his kidneys and bladder problems
He seems quite determined to get better as he can't wait to come out of hospital
I hope he will continue to progress
