Thank you Anne for your well wishes. Your so right Anne, Pat is wonderful, how did I Finnish up with such a beautiful lady is a question I ask myself repeatedly. Does living the dream HAVE to be in a motorhome? Because we may have been woken up with a jolt from THAT dream Anne.

Good to see that sparkle back Trev, you both take care on your road to a full recovery 👍

Hi Fiona. Time is not on our side, but like Ernie we keep mooching around. Did you know he always goes the same way round the kitchen, turn him round, and he refuses to go the other way. I wonder if there is a lesson to be learned here?

Nice to see the twinkle back in your eyes, Pat buzzing around the kitchen and good old Ernie plodding around the kitchen floor 😃. The loaner car is a beauty 👍👍. Fingers crossed that the insurance company will be fair with you and that you can both be back RV’ing again soon 💕💕. Take care, don’t overdo things, time is a healer. Judy🇨🇦🇨🇦

Pat started tidying the front of the van up when we crashed, but the nurse stopped her, so I was told, I remember her crying because of the damage, but I just stared about not comprehending what I saw. Ernie recognises Pat's voice, and knows there's a strawberry in the offing. I am not perkier Helen, I am hurting, just black & blue, and my brain hurts. I can't get over the lovely kind things that are happening, I watched Dave & Bonita video when they interviewed us at the Nurseries, I cried my eyes out, in fact I am welling up now writing this. Such kindness I could not imagine.

This is us taking our time Betty, do we seem as though we are rushing? The car doesn't excite me it's there if we need it. When the insurance Co give me a price for our van and send us the money, they will take the car back, and we will have no vehicle then, but we are not going to rush headlong into finding a van while we have a car. It's always raining anyway. 😁

Trevor you take it easy, such a shock and seeing those fluffy animals you said yesterday that means your brain had a knock and replaces the area of not enough info with something familiar. I seen program on that, one lady seen pink elephants everywhere due to brain injury. You both might still get some problems with delay shock.

Enjoy your fortnight away Zlata, and come back to see how we are doing, but I hope you won't be disappointed if we don't have another van. ❤️

Another 10 minutes and i would have been parked up close to where it went off. Like you say it was not my time to go.

Glad to see you looking a bit better ( colour wise) but you definitely got concussion ! The " images" you describing are a 'classic'symptom.... luckily yours seem quite pleasant ( not always the case) but basically your brain is 'protecting itself' n trying t fill in the gaps (a bit like " flipping through files to find the right one"! ).(e.g....so you might have had fun as a child...lineing up toy animals/ read a book/ watched a film....which you memory has brought up!) .....it can take a few weeks to settle - as an older person.....but don't " underplay" or put on a brave- face f insurance company! It's ok to say....we need more time to be certain on this/ that issue! N a bit of a ' heads- up'....if your memory returns you may get upset n struggle a bit emotionally --- all very natural! So try not t panic! Lots of ❤ to you all.
