Husband is in hospital

My husband is in the hospital; I was very concerned about him and after calling his liver nurse and other excellent advice I drove him to Emergency at the General Campus where his specialist has her main office. If I call an ambulance then he has to go to the Montfort Hospital. I did manage to get him down the stairs and into the car with quite a bit of effort although he was able to walk with support. He hates my driving though and that is always somewhat critical for him but I got him to direct me which usually works well.

We are all hoping that he recovers well but in the meantime we are getting the railings replaced and a chair lift put in for him. We were in the process of putting in the railings when this occurred so now will also add in the chair lift for greater stability. He doesn't have to use it but it is there if he wants to use it.

He has a lot of genealogy projects still ongoing and his life is very busy. He wants so much to do gardening but I think he will watch as my daughter and I work on the garden. The swing is very comfortable and I want to get a garden seat to put under the tree at the back so that he can walk back and forth to build up his strength.

For various reasons I have been driving about the last couple of months as I hadn't drive for quite a while before that. It is a skill that I need to maintain so must do more of it.

My daughter came out of quarantine yesterday so that makes life a lot easier as she can live here with us as she normally does in the summer doing her research.
