Home Hospital

The wifey has not been very well in the last few days. Troubled by severe neck and shoulder pain after coming out from 'Meet The Fockers'. Her being a romantic and loving wife, loves to lean on my shoulder during a movie. I think she must have strained her neck muscles by doing just that.

Paracetamol after paracetamol. Massage after massage. We even tried some traditonal massage oil. But the pain just won't go away. Soon walking up and down the stairs became a big struggle for her. I teased her by calling her a robot, as she scrambled down the stairs in a hilarious robotic manner.

The wife was in bed all day on Monday, hardly able to move. Very reluctantly I volunteered to cook dinner. The last time I cooked for her, she was very enthusiastic before I served the food, but lost her appetite the mo she saw the food that I'd prepared. I kept things simple this time. Surely I could manage making some pasta without causing her becoming nauseated. Luckily it turned out reasonably ok. Well..at least the wifey cleared her plate!

She is now more or less back to her normal self. I'd love to think it's all because of my TLC, and to claim credit for that. I just hope she won't be asking me to cook for her again!!!

You are so sweet and what a loving husband!! It seems like it just takes days for a muscle strain like that to heal, it's very aggravating, b/c you don't realize how deblitating it can be. bless her heart. I'm sure it was your tlc!!
