Sarah Steady

She is beginning to sound more like her old self. Her voice is still relatively quiet but she is starting to respond to the usual banter that she and he usually engage in, even going so far as to ask: “What’s the goss from the coffee shop?”. And she is reading again. “I started Ruth but the introduction got a bit hard going, so I’m back with Lucy Worsley.” It’s something. “Did you walk at all?” he asked. “Yes,” she said, “with the Sarah Steady.” Apparently the frame is called Sarah because the designer made it for his wife, or was it his sister. I love it. God bless her. Let her find her will again. For it is tremendous.
