A WARM & SUNNY MARBELLA AND MANILVA ON WEDNESDAY;

WEDNESDAY 6^th / APRIL 2016.

                                   “NEWSFLASH; HEALTH UPDATE ON BRENDA.”

We were up before dawn this morning and shot off across to the ‘ Costa Del Sol Hospital’  on the other side of Marbella by 6-30 am! We were their first customers as you can see in the pictures below!!

Brenda went straight into the ‘Triage’ Doctor and was then seen by the Consultant very quickly, she then had extensive blood tests and went back to another Doctor for the results, the first good result is that her Kidney readings are down and looking better, she was then sent to the latest ‘ Scan’ on her right leg up to her groin, the Consultant told her that there was no signs of any Thrombosis in her leg, knee and thigh” Finely she was back with the Consultant in the ‘Emergency Department’ who gave her the all clear to walk on the leg, slowly for now, she has no need to go back to our local Doctor as the tablets that she taking for the blood circulation are fine!! RESULT !!

As forecast its the most beautiful day down here on the ‘ Costa Del Sol’ – by lunchtime as we returned at 12 -30 pm, six hours later, the Mediterranean was sparkling as we drove back along the coast road to and up through the hills to sunny Manilva; the forecast for the rest of the week and over the weekend and into next week is for more of the same, even getting a little warmer, 24/25 degs! See the beach down in Sabinillas this morning.

So next we are sorting out the bedding and Brenda is going to use the stairs, once a day, to go up at night and then down in the morning, from tomorrow, she is just using one crutch, for now, but will soon get rid of it as she gets better on her feet, watch this space.

For our supper this evening we are having ‘ Grilled Gammon Steaks ‘ with Garden Peas & ‘ Frits’ – topped with a ‘ Campo’ Fried Egg, tomorrow its ‘ Frittata’ and fish on Friday, Saturday night I’m going back to an old classic “ Beef Stroganoff “ with Rice & Chips!! See below this evenings supper for Brenda!

The rest of the day we are taking things easy and relaxing, tomorrow its the start of the ‘ Grand National’ meeting from Aintree for the three days leading up to Saturday, will be watching it on ‘Channel 4s’ coverage on our large screen TV for the first time in many years!


PS; The ' Chef' is being given a night off next week and is being taken out for dinner to a ' Restaurant' of his choice!!
