Was it gloom and doom for some time, it was "Supprise!" today. So many things did happen during my visit today, it is not possible to describe it all in one message. And I won't.
First of all today in the Netherlands is what is called "Poppy Day" in England. At 20:00 we remember all victoms of war with two minutes silence. That and the fact that Frank is only able to attent the ceremony via TV and his mood of the last time made that I was a bit hesitant on what to expect for today. I had to be there way before 20:00 and not to my suppirse I was not the only one. Frank was following the ceremony from time to time and not spending too much attention to his visitors or the newspaper.
A bit after eight oclock his sister came in, lots of activities started. There were phone calls to be made (by Frank), things that needed to be discussed and also talking about what have happend today.
And in that last bit it was that Frank suprised me, again. On the question "what do you do during your physio excercises?" Frank not only told what he was doing but also showed it to us. Starting with pulling himself up with one hand and ending with grabbing his other hand and pushing his arms in the air. And not just a bit, no, straight up. Not just once, no several times. (Walter, you can close your mouth now.)
When Frank was excercising in bed I saw him think I'll be back!
Way to go Frank!
Watch it André, or it'll be marshmallows at 50 paces, behind the convent at noon!
