Oh it does seem as if things are looking up for Barrie! I am glad to hear that. He is maybe not out of the woods yet but doing very well so far. Your timely and intelligent care probably saved him from getting an infection...Let's hope he continues to get better each day.
That thing you mentioned about exercise made me smile. When I had just started as a student in London I felt quite lonely at first and didn't like my accommodation (miles away in a dingy part of the city). So I spent hours walking in the West End and parks etc. I clocked up many miles. I worked out that I walked 26 miles one weekend, and miles each evening.
I got a terrible ache in my hip, found a doctor and went for a consultation. "Well young lady," said the doctor, "I think you need more exercise!"
In a daze I asked him, "...Do you mean I should walk more than thirty miles at a weekend instead of twenty six?"
He just stared at me for a moment. "Maybe you should have a rest instead." He said.
