Completed DVLA form which Nik took back to post only a few things to do like hosp no’s. Just need Doc’s OK to drive again and get some freedom back, may have to go thro’ an assessment first, eyes are OK having done tunnel vision test at opticians.
Jen tried me with some further gym programme exercises by trying to roll me onto my front with Roni’s help and it really hurt my left shoulder and elbow (I cried!) So we then tried to do the exercises another way holding onto then bed with my legs out. O.T. with Will we discussed how I could take ‘mock’ orders over the telephone I showed him the EduCare website and he printed off details of the training programmes. I did a typing test 150 words and took approximately 15 minutes (15 words per minute). In Social group the 2 Ian’s, Anne-Marie and myself finished our abstract ‘Jackson-Pollock’ painting. Later I saw Ruth and did two or three more cognitive tests.
