Did not turn out to be a "Drowsy Day" after all. Dad was up and about - yup, he had his first bath yesterday. No, Teens, that does not give you a license for not having a bath for 10 days.

Rajat and I turned up slightly late - we had some running around to do - with the Billing department asking us to show "good faith" and Dad had got quite antsy by that time. Kept showing Mom his watch and looking at her quizzically.

We had a long call with Rajat's Dad who explained to us that it was important that we get Dad back as soon as possible - there is a posibility that bed sores and hand/ leg contractures develop if he does not do too much exercise.

The main aim now is to try and see if we can do that - the journey is long, really long.
