Thanks for the very many comments and emails &#8211; I&#8217;ve passed the good wishes on to Bronwyn.<\/p>\n<p>My overall impression is that Bronwyn&#8217;s now on the upwards slope to recovery. While her eyes were closed a lot today, she wasn&#8217;t sleeping as much.  The neuro-surgeon had advised that surgery such as that which Bronwyn underwent, will cause tiredness &#8211; and that it&#8217;s to be expected.<\/p>\n<p>Bronwyn&#8217;s still in the Intensive Care Unit, and as such is still receiving a high level of nursing attention &#8211; this means very regular observations and measurements being made, and slightly less frequent blood test being undertaken.<\/p>\n<p>Another sign that recovery is happening is that Bronwyn&#8217;s interested in eating again.  I know it&#8217;s a tough choice though.  To eat hospital food?  Or to not eat at all? Bronwyn asked her sister Andrea to bring some chocolate in, so we know that Bron&#8217;s mind is focussing on those important things in life.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, I made a couple of cups of Chai Tea for Bron.  She drank both cups and commented on how wonderful they were.  I think she said that because they were so much better than hospital tea, and not just because I made them for her.<\/p>\n<p>Bronwyn also asked for her knitting to be brought in.  I can&#8217;t see her getting to that just yet though, as she still has a few too many cables and tubes attached to her arms and hands to make knitting a workable pass-time.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s still on the cards that she might be transferred to the &#8220;normal&#8221; neuro ward tomorrow.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s it for now &#8211; thanks again for the many emails and messages.  Please accept this as my, and Bronwyn&#8217;s, thanks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi all, Gordon here again.
