Week 305 – January 5th – Collarbone appointment
I was quite surprised to get this appointment so soon, as I only contact the NHS last week.
After seeing the consultant twice, once before the X-Ray, and then after, he was happy that fracture was healing OK, though he did say that it may never fully heal.
He would only be concerned if I was still in pain in September, a year after the injury happened. They said it was most likely the muscle just rebuilding itself back.
Snow at the hospital. Wasn’t expecting the snow, thankfully no impact on the journey.

Week 303 – December 25th – Christmas Day
Christmas Day was different this year. First time I haven’t been with Claire, as she went down to her dads, whilst I stay at home, until one of my sisters came and picked me up, so that I spent it with my sisters and mum.
After the lovely Christmas dinner, we drove over to the cemetery and went down to my dad’s grave.
Our plant was still there, and my sisters lay one as well.
We gave a pray and then went home.
Left by my mum on Christmas Day. RIP Dad.
