Progress seems slow and Lis has not been making daily updates as she did for the first five weeks, so there is little to report.
The double vision is still causing Roger problems with balance and it feels like "sea-sickness". Rog is wearing an eye-patch to relieve the problems. (Jokes about pirate radio now expected!) The physiotherapist has been making Rog exercise hard, as a month in bed takes its toll. This together with the double vision and balance issues makes walking very difficult.
Lis noted that Roger has now spent longer in hospital than he had in their new home! Relatives have been visiting and supporting Lis, and yesterday he enjoyed a visit from his 2 year old grand-daughter. Roger has written notes for Lis but all she can clearly read is "Get me Home". Unfortunately that sounds likely to be some time away, as does any radio related activity.
Thanks for the update, Bob.

Thanks for posting this update. I was thinking of Roger during my own stay in hospital and was keen to find out how he was getting on. Fortunately I "only" had brain surgery so wasn't in for long. I hope Roger can get home soon.

I have been forwarding your own blog reports to Lis and she said that Roger was pleased to hear that you were out of hospital. I will make sure she takes your latest blog into him. It is still possible that Roger may also require some brain surgery once they can remove the tracheotomy.
