Physio and other things that make me ache.

My physio is really good, she did my proprioception tests (I'm useless!) and some light but effective exercises, which I have to continue with when I'm out of the hospital. The idea behind the exercises is to strengthen my legs and help me to walk properly. They will hopefully give my knees strength as well, because they are really, really bad!

Dinner tonight was the vegetarian chilli again, but tonight it was awful. There was no sauce, it was all dry and chewy and the rice was really dry. I'm hoping that things will be a little better tomorrow! I think for my lunches, I might just stick to the salads as they were fresh and really quite nice. Still disappointed at the lack of bacon on the menu though!


This evening, not much is planned except to suffer through the aftereffects of this chilli and to sleep later. Tomorrow, I won't do as much stretching and I'll certainly avoid the bending down ones! 


Also, I've noticed that the lights here are really burning through my eyes (much, much too bright!) They're getting really dry and really sore. I asked the nurses for an atomiser with some water in to spray on my eyes to keep them from completely drying out. No atomisers, but something just as good! Tiny little bottles of sterilised water for injections, which I can use to dab on my eyes! (photo here!)


The water makes so much difference! I wish that I had my own room or a dimmer light or something! Bleh, I'm so tired, and I get to do it all again tomorrow...
