Mabel had a truss fitted (for back injury) but it wouldn't work, so in hospital again, to be put in a plaster jacket. ((This plaster wouldn't set though, so she came home on 27th and the workshop started to make her a steel jacket out of old ceiling fan blades.  She wore this very patiently for about 6 months and it helped)). Still getting no meat and no bread - and not very much of anything.
