In demand

Continued with the Brandt-Daroff exercises today, and felt a good deal improved, steady enough in fact for a half an hour walk after sunset and only felt like I was falling over once or twice. 

Spent the morning recording with Robin, and the rest of the day editing, getting the first cut of the episode over to Robin at tea time. Robin told me she and Nick found themselves buying a car the other day, and that she is, this week, starting a course about becoming an end of life doula. 

Meanwhile Betty and James had been in A&E in Brighton overnight. Beth having had worrying abdominal pains. However, this was due to a severe indigestion made worse by the baby pressing weirdly. Luckily,  all well. 

Once up and breakfasted, Lorraine off to her personal trainer,  then to see Pat and Maureen and later took Beth back to the hospital for a scheduled scan, where they saw the baby sucking his thumb. I spent the day at my desk

Lorraine home again, but just as I was starting dinner a call from Maureen. Lorraine had to pop round  while they waited for the nurse to change the catheter. Lorraine back a few hours later, and grateful for the stir-fry I prepared for her. She was much in demand today. 

Below a quick walk by the sea in the dark, tried my new phone camera on a man running ahead of me with a red light on his back.
