Good Morning Zentanglers 

This week has been a very good week for me, I only used the wheelchair once, and the rest of the time on my crutches 

tomorrow Wednesday 16th April my wife is going for a big op on her wrist /arm/hand/ to try and repair the nerves and ligaments that she has damaged due to having to lift me and assist me in my daily duties so hoping all things go ok with her 

All went well with my wife's Mel op today 
she is in a massive sling and bandages 
she can feel her fingers which is a good thing i was told 

thank you for all your kind words
