Mum had her first jab today. The private ambulance arrived right on time and we were in and out of the hospital within 65 minutes. So far no side effects; let's hope it stays this way.*fingers crossed*

The physiotherapist was here in the afternoon; she and Mum had another successful session. We're trying to make small, careful steps forward, but we are making progress nonetheless. It's better if she uses the walking aid a year longer if needs must be, instead of overdoing things and having another accident.

Other than that, not much else happened. We are both very tired from yesterday and from today, so we decided to be lazy. I half-finished the "blooming eggs" card and typed up some of the recently written stuff, but that was all. Didn't even need to cook more than a canned soup. Yay for laziness!

Hooray for taking some time to be lazy! You and Mum sure deserve it. I'm glad today's transport went according to plan. Fingers crossed your mum has no bad side effects from the vaccination. I'm just so happy both of you are vaccinated now!

Slow and steady progress will do. Even if Mum feels energetic and strong, take caution not to overdo it. I know you won't. I say it because I have two friends who repeatedly re-injured themselves — one after a hip replacement, the other after a knee replacement. Both turned their recovery into a nightmare and additional surgeries to repair the damage they did to themselves by not following the doctor's and therapist's orders.

Fortunately, Mum is a reasonable person. We both know that at the age of almost 90 one has to be cautious and couldn't expect miracles. Although I see it as a miracle that she's already recovered this much.
