Steve is doing well. He is now having some intense physio each day and is coping with it very well. He has a commitment to getting better which keeps him positive. The hospital staff who are looking after Steve are doing a fantastic job. They are an inspiration to us watching how they care for Steve and the other patients in the burns centre. Steve is very fortunate with the fact that he is in such a world class burns centre given the injuries he has sustained, and he is under the care of such a brilliant Consultant and Registrar.
Steve is eating and sleeping better now and is getting stronger all the time, but has not yet been able to get out of his hospital bed. Pauline and his Mum have read newspaper articles to him about his story so far, and Pauline has taken copies from the just giving site and about what I write on this page. Pauline told me Steve was very grateful for the comments and donations on the just giving site and that he was glad that I had been keeping people informed about his progress.
We are seeing the big man again this afternoon. I'll keep you posted on his progress.
