Pat - out on a raft with friends, Canada 2005

Mes condoléances les plus sincères ! un beau sourire !
Bon retour sur Ipernity.
Bonne soirée

Much appreciated, thank you ColRam.

So sorry to hear of your sad loss, Roger. Yes, 60 years is a long time!

Thank you Andy, she had been suffering for some time, but passed in peace.
How are you these days? I am very much out of touch with ipernity, only managed the occasional viewing.

Thanks, Roger.
Well, after 2 months in an induced coma in an emergency ward thanks to Covid (which I think you knew), I have made a slow but steady improvement. The main health problems were that my kidneys were badly affected (now back to 100%), my vocal cords were severely impaired (back to about 50%) and my legs were wasted (like two sticks of wilted celery!). It's the legs that are the things that are taking most work and physiotherapy but little by little, I'm getting there. I now average 18,000 paces a day accourding to my pedometer and I'm amazed at that since my average was only 500 paces a day only 2 months ago. I still find walking uphill very difficult but I have a target of getting back into the mountains if not this autumn, then next spring!
Sorry, that was the long answer! The short answer is that I am improving and I appreciate your concern!
Once again, many thanks and best wishes,
Andy

My sincere condolences !!

Thank you, much appreciated.

So sorry Roger and my sincere condolences. Your wife looks a lovely kind lady and it's a sad loss after so many happy years together. My best wishes to you and your family.

Thanks very much Rosa, Pat was unwell for some time, I know she got more and more tired of coping, the farewell is never easy though.

Sorry to read of your sad loss Roger and I offer my condolences,
This is a beautiful portrait to go with your happy memories,

Thanks very much Roger, it will take time no doubt.
