Lindsey newsletter # 91
Nantes, Sunday 10th September, 23-30.
I shall complete this entry at a further time. I just wanted to reassure anyone reading the blog. Lindsey is doing fine. I have just not found much time to go through the many pictures that were taken last week-end, format them and write about them.
So I’ll just try to write a little and will add the pictures at a later date.
In Nantes we have come back to routine. Girls come most mornings and afternoon which allows Lindsey to go out. Long walks into town, to the market or to visit Cambronne take place. I have taken the dust off my bicycle and have been going to and from work with it.
Last week-end was Lindsey’s birthday. So we decided to go to the island of Yeu to celebrate. Vikki is working and living there, and since she works on week-ends, the only way to be all together was to take the ferry to Yeu.
Vikki had managed to get a house for rental at a special house. The house was giving straight on the sea. It was lovely to hear the waves from the bed and see the fishermen pull up their post early in the morning while drinking the breakfast coffee.
In Yeu you can eat and walk. We did both. I bought some lobsters from the fishing boat and they became the birthday meal. And we had long walks on the coastline paths.
Very nice, very peaceful.
Lindsey newsletter # 92
Nantes, Saturday 23rd September, 22-30.
And two weeks went past…
After a few days on our own we were joined by Lali. She arrived in the right moment as I was going to face 8 strenuous days. I have given talks, taught robotics to children, launched the Unesco chair, gone to Ljubljana and back to the Unesco conference…
During which time Lali has been here looking after, with a visit of Vikki to help in the middle.
Lindsey has also become more and more autonomous, taking over in the kitchen, walking a lot, building her own agenda. Everyone who has seen her or heard her has noticed the improvement. Which is great.
On Wednesday (20th) she went to the hospital for an MRI. We will only know the results in a few days. So for the moment we are enjoying life. Today we even were sunbathing in the garden. I will try and not get stressed before Monday evening.
Love
