2:25 am

*hugs*
2:27 am
grannyrose

how are you coping sweetie? is the Rob any better. i saw your messages, thought i would an6 when we came home from church. yeah, right! fell asleep in my chair AGAIN! lol. before lunch.
2:28 am
sprite

not good. They bandaged one leg too tight. Undid and redid it yesterday with time in between but tonight it was horrible again. Another night with almost no sleep. Just undid the bandanges again. We think the elastic stocking is too tight, a size too small.
2:30 am
sprite

fireflies. Good grid. Has teeth.
2:30 am
grannyrose

the stocking will be the size they want Rob to be. Is he wearing the stockings AND the bandages?
2:30 am
sprite

it is in layers. COtton wool, stocking, padded bandage, elastic bandage, another stocking
2:31 am
grannyrose

omg. poor man !
2:32 am
sprite

I have ordered the things to lift the foot of our bed though. Should arrive this week.
2:34 am
sprite

yes it is pretty nasty, all in all. I hate it that they did this right now. On Tuesday he has the appointment for the custom pressure stockings. If he cannot manage the bandaging on that leg, the measures will be off. I wish something would go right. Am so so tired. Am simply crying from tiredness. And now I have to go get some groceries. I so so do not wanna.
2:34 am
grannyrose

when he is sitting with his kegs elevated, is he moving his feet while in that position? drawing circles with his toes, flexing feet up and down, tightening his calf muscles and relaxing them, repeating at least 10-20 times, then rest 10 minutes, then go through the process again.
2:35 am
sprite

yes he does all that, all the time. He is doing so good.
2:35 am
grannyrose

awww my darling girl. is there anyway you can phone, order, and have them deliver?
2:36 am
sprite

groceries will be delivered on tuesday, monday was full. Yesterday we ordered dinner. Tim is coming this afternoon, am gonna ask him to walk Terra
2:36 am
sprite

Nero. Nero. Jeezzz
2:37 am
grannyrose

good for Tim. could Tim do the shopping for you? or will it be too late for the shop?
2:37 am
sprite

ah well, once I can sleep at night again, I will be able to manage better. Things could be worse.
2:38 am
grannyrose

sleep is good.
2:38 am
sprite

yeah too late for the shop, and I want to spend some time with him as well. I am gonna go now. You know how they always say, think before you act? My mantra nowadays is Don't think, just act. Don't think, just act.
2:39 am
sprite

*hugs* and lotsalove :D Am off to the darn store. Will keep in touch.
2:39 am
grannyrose

* hugs * my darling. always in my thoughts and prayers.

What is a Wetroom?

A wetroom is a totally waterproofed or tanked bathroom with a shower area at the same level as the rest of the floor. The water drains away through a flush drain within the shower area. As the walls and floor are sealed by a waterproof membrane, there is no risk of runaway water causing damage.
