Stephen’s sciatica is really debilitating at the moment. He might have to make a few changes.

Yeah hi, Saturday isn’t it? Yeah I got lost in the days. Yeah I had a bit of a problem yesterday last night, yesterday and last night, and this morning. I couldn’t walk. My sciatica really bad on the left hand side at the moment. Really bad. (Inaudible) just use me zimmer frame all the time, I can’t, I just can’t (inaudible) on it properly. Yeah it’s awful painful but there you go. Hopefully it’ll get better soon.

I might have to be in for a different kind of wheelchair I guess. I don’t know, something that’s made properly for my size and whatever. Yeah I’ve only got a light one, aluminium one at the moment and I’m not sure he’s big enough for me. He’s very, you know, he’s first size but I just don’t think he’s the right size for me. I’m thinking the carers going to give me an (inaudible) next week find out and see if there’s anything they can do. I don’t really want to pay for another one if I can help it. They cost a lot of money these days and what with everything that’s going on it’s you know, hopefully, I just can’t stand on my legs, can’t stand on my legs just, it’s just painful. Painful as hell. But never mind. There you go. It’s the way it goes I suppose, you know. These things happen and they happen quite frequently these days. Sciatica is really chronic at the moment. But there you go, it goes with everything else doesn’t it. But never mind.
