Thanks bows13 for your enquiry about husband, basically not a lot of improvement in mobility, he is still getting around on his elbow crutches, & is having physio to try to get strength back again, so yes I am still wearing the hats + an extra one - taxi driver.He is however feeling better in himself which is a step in the right direction.
