Mist lifting!

Hi All,

Not much news really since I last logged on earlier today. Just back from Beaumont where Niall is a much happier camper than yesterday. He's off all drips, tubes and wires of any description and looking all the better for it too, I might add. They're even beginning to discuss discharge over the next few days, which is hugely encouraging. Rory's progressing according to plan but I think he's really itching to get out of that bed. He's still sedated but it's tough on him having physio to shift the fluid - and then being stuck back to the bed. His new kidney is still working a treat with amazing blood results, the like of which we have never seen before - well within normal range - a term we have never before heard uttered in relation to Rory! He just hasn't done normal before - I hope he doesn't have problems adjusting to this new found normality.
I think we all will - normal has been a pretty elastic term in our house for the last 4 years.

Cheers
Ann
