Well, the real reason I came on this trip was very apparent today as we went to A & E at the Birmingham hospital twice today for Vo was in alot of pain in her back and her legs. She does incredibly well and gets around on her own steam even when tired with crutches, but last night she hurt her back and now we are seeing the results of that.
I dont want to go into alot of personal details for Vos privacy, but I felt I needed to show this side of my trip as it could be any of us. MS is a very debilitating disease and everyone has some different symptoms with it. The muscle spasms are very strong and painful.
Vo is a fighter and fiercely independent. She is so brave when in pain and if shes tired. She has been fantastic while I have been here and driven me around so many special places I could never have got to. We have had alot of fun and long car conversations about lots of subjects.... along with fixing the world.(-:
Anyway today was time to look after her.... We got back home from the hospital the second time at midnight. The hospital staff both times have been fantastic.
