Light at the end of the tunnel

After a few tough days,with Russ’s health, and with the amazing attention of the German medical profession, Russ is on the improve. While the boat (rivercruise) has sailed and we are not going to get to spend time in Norway, a lot of the jigsaw pieces have been put together.

And I have Russ in the garden foyer without oxygen! Drinking his McDonalds coffee and eating fried shrimps!

I have booked into my simple hotel for another three days and, all going well, Russ may be out by the weekend and we will stay put in an airBNB in Berlin for a week before heading back to Malta for our last month on the sunny side!

I spent the morning at the hospital, catching up with doctors, and Russ of course. Then back to my abode for a couple of hours work, before the afternoon coffee run to McDonald’s! Still the best coffee in the suburbs!

We did our free walking and discussed our plans moving forward, before I headed off to the supermarket to buy something healthy for my tea!

32 degrees today and the tree lined streets a welcome shade on my walk!

Salad and pork knuckles (ribs) for tea, Dave you’ll be proud of me, but can’t have another repeat of last nights cashew nuts and chocolate biscuits!

A view back at the reason we ended up in Berlin – the high rise in the middle is this fabulous Vivantes Neukölln hospital!

My daily plod back and forwards to the hospital – still clocking my 10000 steps a day and 5-6kms on foot!

We still have a bit more of Berlin to go but we are positive all will be sorted!

P.S. Beer time!
