I went to the gym! Got hubby to drop me off because my concentration while driving is not great at the moment. Really enjoyed the experience, everyone was pleased to see me and I took it slowly and could feel my confidence rise. I feel this is such an achievement! Also, had some good news: P........... (my first friend to have a stroke) has improved so much he has been transferred more locally. Today I am going to visit him - I feel I can cope better now.
The tears I shed (briefly) today were tears of joy for my friend and his family and not tears of anquish and self-pity. That is real progress!
I became fatigued at about 4pm which is alot later than usual. I kind of 'zoned out' and just sat in the armchair watching TV for about an hour before I felt I could make any effort. It went off and after dinner we both went to see friends for an hour or so. I was a little agitated to be going out for the evening but once we were there things were fine and I felt 'normal'!
Hubby's behaviour towards me has changed for the better. He was getting really frustrated but can now see me improving and it has lightened his mood which is wonderful.
So I have some challenges today: visit P.............. plus we have hubby's brother to visit, although that isn't really a challenge - just an effort.
