    I called in to check on John and I found him 'round the back like this.

    Attachment 85969

    Poor little bloke. It's sad. This project's really taken it out of him. It looks like he's managed to access the forum long enough to add his thanks to somebody's post but I can only imagine, given his current state, that dragging himself up to make that one mouse click would have taken every ounce of his energy - and that he then fell back exhausted and hasn't moved since. I couldn't rouse him so I dragged him by his boots inside out of the weather. I'll check on him again in another week or so.

    I called in again today. I opened the back door to find that he'd dragged himself to a corner about six feet from where I left him and was sitting up. I think that's a good sign. He didn't seem to notice my presence - he just stared at the opposite wall. Undeterred, I took a rag from the bin and put it behind his head to make him more comfortable. He looked very hot so I gave him a light spray with the garden hose. Then I took a bowl from the kitchen bench, carefully tipped out the nuts and bolts, filled it with water, and placed it on the floor beside him. I noticed a tin of Spam on a shelf so I took that down, opened it, and placed it next to the water. Since I know you're all interested in how he's getting on, I thought I'd reassure you that he's in good hands and that he's recovering well. Hopefully he'll have the strength soon to type out a few words of his own.

    You could try and leave a favorite toy with your patient.

    That's a good idea, Arthur, but I didn't want to overwhelm him.

    Whoa, take it easy mate. You need to get your strength back. You don't want to have another one of your episodes.
