I am going crazy with this new windows 11. It
has buggered up my whole system, addresses and all. And all the blog entries
sins June 14. I had a blog for today and it just disappeared, along with lots of
others. I hope my guru, Fr. Proud, an find them. They must be around somewhere.
Have a blessed Christmas season and a hope-full 2023.

I have had 3 sessions with the physiotherapist,
KIARA, each time giving me another exercise to do twice a day, before she comes
back next time,,,,,,//Tuesdays and Thursdays, 8qm to 9 . Wonder of wonders, the
bowels have started to move again and some of the muscle in the left leg is
coming back.
I
don’t know how many times I have started my Christmas letter and it just seems
to disappear and I can’t find it. So here
we go again. Let me put this in the blog before it gets lost too. Blessings on
you all for your love Nd support.
Good news.
The new diet is working. I have had 2 BMs in the last 2 weeks. Hooray.
We are making progress. My niece also sent some money, so I made an appointment
with a physiotherapist to make a home visit for a reasonable charge, It seems
that the muscle in my left leg is disappearing because it gets no exercise. I
have to find some exercises to get it back again. I hope it is possible. I also
have to start my dear everyone Christmas letter, It all sounds so normal but I
can hardly walk now and everything has to be carefully preplanned. Lots of love
to you all and keep the prayers coming.

Dr. Govender, in my meeting with him on Tuesday
the 29th, said I am malnourished and going down ….porridge in the
morning and soup afternoon and evening
had me starving he said and the body was pulling energy to exist from the
muscles. ( half the calf muscles are already gone, ) and he prescribed for me a
whole new diet, something that is impossible at mariannhill 1. Muesli every day 2. 3 fruits every day. 3. Drink 3 raw eggs a day (full of the
protein I need) 4. Lots of Greek salad
5. 2 litres of water every day,
that , hopefully will get me up and back to normal. He himself ordered
some special protein drink cartons, and is trying to get me into a program
where I CAN GET HOSPITAL ATTENTION OR A WEEK, WHERE THEY WILL GIVE ME A DRIP WITH ALL THE NUTRIENTS NY BODY NEEDS,
He strongly hinted that I was on the way out. Wow. He scared me, but also
impressed me with his TLC, his PA, Melissa, is also, searching for ways to get
free care. Lots of people are trying their best for me. I am really touched,
moved, by their concern and real efforts to help somehow.
I
want to apologize too for 2 things. 1.
I stole, borrowed money for this new diet fom the fund for the poor, I hope
that the donors will forgive me, 2. I
received so many birthday wishes and blessings that I am unable to answer each
and every one. I just say thank you to you all, and God bless you for you love
and concern and friendship. I thanked God for my 87 full years of beautiful
people (all of you), and look forward to more beautiful people in my 88th
yr,
Again, God bless you all and man many thanks for your love. Cas
