No, I am not talking about this daily little blog in Berlin suburbia! The new (2nd hand free German book) put our lovely roomy Hans to sleep last night. And the morning paper (which I collected at 8am today) have a welcome diversion for the morning….The nurse finally realised Hans is a reader and at lunchtime he brought in another paper.
However this did not go well, a tabloid gossip paper is not welcome. Hans leapt off his bed chasing after the nurse (who had slipped into obscurity in another room), and, not being able to find him, threw it in the trash with disgust. Then quietly went back to finishing the news of the world (my paper), and picked up his book for the afternoon.
You will all be pleased, Hans was getting his dinner, when an elusive son phoned and said he was coming for a visit…about time after a week! Dinner can wait, he was very excited.
Now the kiwis, I left the hotel (check out day) and moved my bags to the air conditioned, with fridge and coffee in my room (and a bath!!) then headed to see Russ.
I got to the hospital in time to see the team of doctors…Russ is out of jail tomorrow, with a little trepidation! I spent the morning running around the streets of south Berlin arranging to have portable oxygen at hand, for the next ten days, at the hotel while we wait for flight clearance! The one we need is supplied from Munich, but I found the distribution warehouse and arranged to pick one up early tommorrow (opens at 6.30am) Russ May not need it if he relaxes but it is peace of mind for all of us!
Russ had another walking test this arvo, and George arrived at the time I was checking into my new room! Back to see Russ and I bought us all Chinese (my south Berlin go to) for dinner. We think the hospital had decided it’s time for Russ to leave, as his lunch was a miserable bit of pasta and tomato sauce!

George and I are sharing our air conditioned room tonight and then I will move him to another when Russ gets home! (As much as home is right now)
Big day tomorrow!!!
