Hi Pam,
Thanks for your email. We have
just come back from visiting Eric in Oxford. I have to say that his condition
has somewhat deteriorated since his visit for the Tour des 3 Vallées in June. He
didn't recognize me at first but knew me by name, although it did get a bit
better after a bit of time. It's all a bit sad. Physically he had recovered a
bit from the time when the doctors were telling us to expect the worst, but that
said I gather that yesterday he collapsed in his room. All a bit
worrying.
Otherwise we are all well here in
Germany, apart from the fact that I'm suffering from an injured shoulder from a
mountain bike accident. But I'm told I will fully recover (after about three
months!) and in any case I can still ride the bike and go running without too
much pain, so I'm fairly relaxed about it. It's just a problem of a damaged bike
and bruised ego! Here we've also had our first snow falls and sub zero daytime
temperatures and Alec is already wanting to go out on his skiis. Kids are
amazing-so long as they're interested in what they're doing they don't notice
the cold or the wet until the very last moments-then it's another
story!
We've just made a provisional
booking at La Plage for next year's event so we'll meet again then hopefully.
I'll keep you updated on Eric's condition if it changes.
Otherwise we wish you all the best for
Christmas, and a very Happy 2017
Best Regards from all of us
Tony, Annett and Alec
