Feeling better...

Five days since I last posted an update and Lis has made 2 in that time.  On Monday nothing seemed to have changed very much and the only good news was that a deaf friend had visited who was able to understand Roger by being able to lip read which had give a bit of a boost.  

This morning (Wednesday) Lis wrote :

"Roger has been much brighter these last couple of days. Tim, Jo and the children visited on Monday and this cheered him up, especially when Lucien and Amandine climbed on the bed to give him a cuddle. Jo, who sees him less frequently, saw a big improvement.
Yesterday he indicated that his eyes were a tiny bit better. He had them open for much longer than usual. Before I left he wrote down that he wanted me to bring in lots of radio magazines as he is getting bored. Good sign.
Today our nephew, Nick, is travelling from the south west for a meeting in London and making a special detour to see Rog. So what with Chris and family arriving tomorrow it's been a nice family week."
So perhaps this craving for his magazines is a sign of "normality" slowly returning. But he still has the tracheotomy tube.
