Nothing is permanent! After few very difficult days suddenly we had a better night followed by peaceful morning. Helder managed to sleep without waking up from 10pm to about 3am. Even thou after that started usual trips to the toilet, which kept Helder awake until morning, he started the day feeling really rested and having more strengths. The first good sign was that today Helder himself asked for the breakfast! :) After lunch all three of us sat together in the patio worming up in the sunlight, it was really special and made us feel for a moment again like a normal family :)
The place where we are is amazing, it is like a little paradise. But the things are not perfect even here, everyday our patience and sence of security are shaken by the obstacles we encounter on the way to provide Helder with a minimum of medical support. Our staying in Algarve made us aware that the things we simply took for granted in the UK are not easily available in here.
