Monday

Monday, and I'm in another hospital for rehabilitation. Upton Hospital in central Slough.

I had the clips removed from my wounds earlier. 

I got out of bed and into a chair for an hour and a half today but the chair was very uncomfortable. I would have managed longer if the chair had been more comfortable. I walked 2 or 3 steps to and from the chair but putting weight on my bad (right) leg was extremely painful. But when not 'loadbearing', I can carefully move my legs into different positions.

Since moving here, I've been unable to access 'YouTube' or 'DropBox' related sites. I wonder if this is hospital policy to prevent downloading of offensive content.
