Today, Nadine’s old friends Paul and Julie stopped by for another visit before they return home to Colorado towards the end of the year. Julie, who is a dancer with an expertise in Alexander Technique, did Nadine a little favour and taught her how to improve her lower half. In the picture, you can see Paul watching Julie working on Nadine’s numb feet.
Nadine and I got used to our new situation and managed to establish some routines now. After being educated by a caretaker a few times I’m able to do most of the necessary things by myself now.
Tomorrow, we have to call the hospital and ask wether the next round of Depocyt can take place on Wednesday. If yes, Nadine will go stationary again from Tuesday to Thursday but will be released just in time before Christmas.
Dearest Nadine,
We think of you and Jens so often, sending our love, hoping for good tea and peace and light. This morning I remember so vividly our walk to church with your family through a Christmas eve snow those many Christmases ago. The look of the sky, the sound of the bells, the crunch of snow under our boots. Thinking of you and holding you close in my heart.
much love,
Nat
